Updates From Vietnam

Greetings from Vietnam. Let me give you a quick update from Vietnamese Mozilla Community. Vu Hung shared his Mozcamp experiences and the Mozilla goodies at the informal gathering of Open Source communities in Hanoi, Vietnam.

Few days ago, I met Tuan and Yang to talk about Mozilla community activities in Vietnam. We spent the afternoon discussing ideas for more user engagement, Localization and future events in Vietnam. Mozilla community is well organized in the north Vietnam (Hanoi), however we haven't had much success in Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon).

I'll be traveling to Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City) this weekend to participate in BarCamp Saigon Winter 2011. Planning to meet some of the open source community members at the event and hopefully build an active Mozilla community in Saigon.

Back in Hanoi next week for the FOSS@HUS on December 17, 2011. The annual Open Source fest at Hanoi University of Science (HUS), Hanoi, Vietnam.

Ubuntu in Mandalay, Myanmar

ThanYalZin Min sends us this picture from Ubuntu day in Mandalay, Myanmar. You can see Min sporting the cool Mozcamp t-shirt in the photograph.

Mozilla Rep Chit Thiri Maung is planning the future Mozilla activities in Yangon and Mandalay. This year we launched the Mozilla L10N team during the BarCamp Yangon 2011.

You can follow Mozilla Myanmar Community here on their twitter page. I hope to see more Mozillians in Myanmar next year.
