Don't know if useful or not, but on my first trip to HCMC many years ago, my local friend took me to a KTV in the China town part where we sat with a few Chinese/English speaking girls - not that many but enough to make it an enjoyable evening. But I also remember that even at that time, prices were NOT cheap.

I'd speculate/think that of late, since there are so many VB's doing their tours of duty in Singapore and other places, there'd be more of them who would have multi language abilities. But I also agree with Hurricane - that if your main criteria is their Chinese language abilities, then you'd be better off staying in Singapore to party. Be a bit more adventurous and take in all that HCMC is otherwise famed for - I'm very sure that you will probably enjoy yourself more this way.

You can go through Hurricane's list to determine which KTV's are located in China town.

Just suggesting thass'all! And just like Hurricane - not to upset anyone...skip if you dun like to read...

communication breakdown is where we learn what to say ma.

every breakdown is a lesson to be learnt. of course, there is google translate or other translator...thought the translation may end up worse.

I find that the translator will give wrong meaning 50% of the times.....

is it due to the missing Sun, Moon and Star on top of each word

my miss rate is more like 75%..
nowadays too lazy to translate, just look at key words and should assume meaning.
