    If you've watched my videos carefully the past few years from Vietnam, you would notice that in many of those videos Minh appears in them. I met him one day when I booked an Uber ride with him. I asked him if he would drive a day for hire and he said yes and the rest is history. We have been on many amazing trips together in order to make videos. Without him and his patience and help and determination to drive far and long without complaining, I would have had a much harder time creating content. So, Minh, thank you so much for your help throughout the years. If you want to hire Minh for a day or two, please reach out to me on Facebook.

    Kyle, what a great video to honor Minh! I will never forget how kind, patient and helpful he was when were trying to find my aunt. Spending those days with you gave me a glimpse into how much effort and care you take into producing your videos. Minh was no doubt a big part in making it all happen. Thank you Mr. Minh!! You truly are a good man.

    Your stories are getting better and better and deeper. Thank you for sharing Minh story, what an honest,genuine and hard working man. I hope his future is secure and his kids lives are improved in the years to come. 👍🏼✊🏻I respect and admire you Kyle for being the voice to so many.

    I could not have produced as much content from far away regions of Vietnam without Minh's help throughout the past few years. We met randomly through an Uber booking and he became instrumental in helping me get to locations required for filming all of these videos in many places in Vietnam. If you want to hire him for a day or two or more, please contact me through Facebook and I'll give you his details. Minh is a really hard working guy and I'm glad that I was able to help him as often as I could. Thank you Minh for helping me and being so patient and understanding through long days.

    This video is closer to me than others. I see my dad in Minh. He used to do all the things Minh did and still does occasionally today. Thank you, Kyle, for showing what a great man he is and how hardworking a man can be to provide for his family!

  • @AroundSiliconValley
    @AroundSiliconValley 6 років тому +6

    Thank you, Kyle, for a moving story. You give a voice, a name, and a face to what others would normally consider a transactional encounter - get a lyft, take a ride - everyday. The story also says a lot about Minh, the Uber driver, about the resilience and resourcefulness of the everyday Vietnamese people struggling to make ends meet.
    Who knows, thanks to the Internet and the global reach of Silicon Valley's companies like Uber, Lyft, in addition to Intel, Cisco, facebook, etc. life of Vietnamese people will improve and get better. I enjoy watching your videos, they keep getting better and better in both the stories you tell and the quality of the video footage. Keep up the good work, young man from Southern Cal.

  • @quangb9080
    @quangb9080 6 років тому +8

    It's a story of the perseverance that many Vietnamese go through! Start out with the clothes on their back to be able to lease a car to work. $800 a month seems like a lot of money to lease a car but then when you think a car in Vietnam is 2-3X the price of the same car in the US, the lease price doesn't seem that bad but that's a lot of money for one man to make every month plus the cost of gas. Wish there was a way you can promote his service but advertising his phone number might not be the best way. Thanks for another great video!

    • @kyleledotnet
      @kyleledotnet  6 років тому

      this video is a way to advertise his service. many people already reached out to me and I have already passed on his number. they will get a reliable and nice driver who charges very fairly and he gets work to support his family. everyone wins.
      he has requested not to openly post his phone number so I didn't do it.

    • @kyleledotnet

    Touch of class Kyle, acknowledging the Vietnamese friends that made your life a little bit more less complex and tiresome in Vietnam. I had my fair share during the 10 years there and there are so many of those genuinely caring and friendly Vietnamese people, they truly worry for you when you go somewhere new. They work such long hours to earn mere pittance but they have no problem spending an extra 30 minutes to an hour to make sure you get something done or get somewhere safe and sound. I believe in karma and I believe your kindness and open mindedness will reward you. Take care.

    Uber in Vietnam is way cheaper compared to Taxi, and most drivers friendlier than taxi drivers, too. I dont like taking cabs in Vietnam because most drivers will refuse to drive you to short distances. Most taxi drivers in Vietnam are rude.

      @karllarsen8797 6 років тому

      Sophie Bakall,
      I do not know this driver personally. However, based on his Souhern accent, I am 99% confident that Minh lives and works in Saigon. By the way Sophie, we Viets (both Northern and Southern) prefer the old name of the city, Saigon. Only commie officials like to call the city HCMC.

    • @SBakall2
      @SBakall2 6 років тому

      I prefer the name Saigon as well. Hence why I only used the acronym HCMC. Also, many people who read these comments have never been to Saigon and think it is 2 dif cities.. even some of my friends here in the US think HCMC and Saigon are 2 dif cities.
