Information on China and Vietnam gathered in bits and pieces from Chinese friends and Vietnamese friends, and from visits to these countries, has brought about three China websites and one Vietnam website. The bits and pieces of information on China and Vietnam have been included in several webpages as travelogues. "Shaolin monks make indentations in hall floor with their feet." "Lean pork cheaper than fat pork in Vietnam as fat is rendered down for cooking." These are examples of the bits and pieces of information to be found on the pages about China and Vietnam. |

The plane from Hong Kong prepared to land at Guilin and some of the information on China was thus confirmed, for the first view of the karst mountains proved to be spectacular. Many bits and pieces of information about China gathered from the media was nothing to that received from the Chinese people themselves. "A particular countryside town holds a farmer's market every three days", is information about China rarely read about in books, but is amongst the bits and pieces of information gathered from friends during many visits to China. |

Information on China Shaolin Kung Fu was picked up in bits and pieces from a Warrior Monk on a visit to North Wales. By accepting an invitation to Shaolin, a wealth of information on China temples was acquired together with bits and pieces of information about the Buddhist ceremonies. Amongst the bits and pieces of information was that the youngest student was only 4 years of age. He joined those many Chinese children met during other visits to China.

From Vietnam came the "Boat People" to the Welsh town of Wrexham and there they planted the seeds of friendship trees. One tree grew with many branches in the UK, France, China and Vietnam, with a rich harvest of information on Vietnam. Visiting Vietnam provided more bits and pieces of information on Vietnam which would not otherwise have been known. |

Information on China is available in many different forms. The bits and pieces of information on China and Vietnam picked up from friends, from books and the media, may act to encourage the urge to travel to the countries, to find out whether the bits and pieces of information on China are based on facts. The venture is well worth the effort!
