I've spent days on a bus pilgrimage of barbecue joints in Texas and a fortune on wagyu in Japan.

We hope it will save many millions of lives in the long run," says Bui Huynh Long, chief administrator of the National Traffic Safety Committee. Thousands of extra police will be dispatched nationwide to pull over bare-headed drivers, issuing steep fines of up to 200,000 dong (about $15) - about a quarter of the average monthly wage and, significantly, also the average price of a helmet.
