Another love season is coming close, while in Southern Vietnam (has direct flight from KL to Hochiminh city), the native Khmer here also start preparing for biggest festival in the year: Chol Chnam Thmay - Maha Sangkran. This occasion is also the new year festival of many race/nation such as Burmese, Laos, Thai, and also for Sri Lanka, some Southern India with different festival name corresponding to their language.
