HCMC 2013 Day 1 Reflection: War Remnants Museum

War Remnants Museum

1. Did you notice any variation in the way the war was being portrayed through the photos? Is there any bias?

The exhibits/photos are mostly criticising the Americans. The photos/exhibits are depicting the negative side of the Americans like them torturing the Vietnamese.

2. What are the impacts of the war? Think along the lines of types (economic, social, political, environmental), as well as short/long term impacts. You may consider the impacts of Agent Orange and more.

The country which may be attacked may have some business in the country attacking. So if the country were to attack, they may lose in terms of economy

3. Who won and who lost?

Neither of the countries will win or lose

4. Are there any lessons from the Vietnam War that Singapore can apply currently/in the future?

Singapore can have business with various countries.
