Interviewer: Welcome back to ‘Around the World in
30 minutes’. Thanks again Sunanta for
telling us about New Year celebrations
in Thailand. Next we have Phong from
Viet Nam. Hi Phong.
Phong : Hi.

Interviewer: Your New Year is called Tet, isn’t it?
Phong: That’s right.
Interviewer: The Vietnamese celebrate Tet at different
times each year, don’t they?
Phong: Yes. This year, we will celebrate Tet at the
end of January.
Interviewer: What should people do to celebrate Tet?

Phong: A lot. It’s the busiest time of the year.
Interviewer: What, for example?

Phong: You should make your house look
beautiful at Tet so you should clean
and decorate it. You should also buy
flowers and plants. But you shouldn’t
buy fireworks.
Interviewer: Do you travel during Tet?

Phong: Not often. Tet is a time for family
gatherings.

Interviewer: Yes, and… Do you eat a lot?
Phong: Yes, eating great food is the best thing
about Tet! Oh, and getting lucky money.
Ha ha.

Interviewer: Great! Thank you, Phong. Coming up, we
have Yumiko from Japan...
