Same structures, different eras

I have many buildings to compare.
start with this
Saigon Cathedral

I always wondered why the old cathedral of Saigon didn't have the pulpit, usually old churches had pulpits on one side of the church. I just got my answer

current interior

Marie Curie school
the current one has 2 security booths at the entrance, the old school only has 1
I think they will clear everything when they expand the Nam Ky Khoi Nghia street

if you want something you have to be initiative.........ya have to do these folowiing things:
write a petition, send an article to the newspaper, write a song, poem, present gifts for any girl who wears ao dai out, or make up a law, put people in jail if they don't wear ao dai

if nothing works, you could straight to all the girls and threaten them: if you don't wear ao dai I will squeeze you

or you can be a role model for them.......wear it yourself first
