Vietnam poverty 1945

*Direct Cause: The consequences of the war in Indochina. The powers involved as France, Japan and the United States intervened in Vietnam and caused many disasters affecting the economic activities of the Vietnamese. Fluctuations in the military and political deluge occurred caused the North has traditionally rice shortage should be as hungry.

* Indirect Causes: Is the worst of French colonialism in Vietnam, with the economic reform measures in order to serve the regime and the war demand, due in France when it was at war and are also being invaded.

* Natural Causes: Natural disasters, floods caused crop failures in the North.

*After the global economic crisis in 1930, France turned to protectionist policies and trade monopoly in the exploitation of Indochina colonial policy. Indo entire population must work to improve the economic value of the area, but only the French, a very small minority of Vietnamese and American people closer to France or an urban population benefited. Consequently, before World War II, Vietnam remains a poor and backward country compared to many other Asian countries. When World War broke out, France was weak. In East Asia, Japan began to expand and look at the first Indochina as progressive control over South Asia and China.
Between 1940, when France occupied by Germany and Japan to put pressure on France and the following year into Indochina. Vietnam's economy caught up in war, with France and Japan compete for control of economic. It comes to reason that Japan forced the people of Vietnam in the bottom instead of growing rice to serve the war, but in fact the French have conducted this work before, namely the shrinking area of arable crops sub such as maize, potatoes, cassava, to cotton, jute, hemp, or industrial plants. Production of rice and paddy crops in the north of the strongly reduced by the cultivated area has been narrowed.

#Disaster

Outside the context of war, political and economic situation in the North weather also contributed to the momentum created famine. Northern Crop drought and insect damage, making winter-spring production in 1944 declined by 20% compared with the previous harvest year. Then the floods that damaged crops should start spreading famine. Grim winter of 1944-45 instead also be a cold winter makes the crops at the cost side, the factors that create evil pile amid World War.

#Consequences
No exact figures on the number of people have died from starvation, but some sources estimate that from about 400,000 to 2 million people died of famine in northern Vietnam at this time. May 1945, seven months after the outbreak of famine in the north, Lieutenant's Court in Hanoi, Hue court ordered the Northern Province reports of casualties. 20 provinces have reported deaths from starvation in the north is more than 380,000, died of disease - no known cause - is over 20,000, a total of 400,000 own north. October 1945, as reported by an official of the French military in Indochina as it was then Minister Mordant half a million people dead. France Governor Jean Decoux then wrote in his memoirs about the period of rule in Indochina, "Well la barre de l'Indochine" - is there a million starving North. Vietnam Historians estimate that between 1 to 2 million.

Singapore's Geographic ( according to informations found )

Singapore is an island with a diamond shape surrounded by many other small islands. There are two roads between Singapore and Malaysia's state Juhor - an artificial way street called Johor-Singapore link in the north, crossing TebrauDao Jurong Straits, Pulau Tekong, Pulau Ubin and Sentosa are the largest island of Singapore Besides, there are many other small islands. Highest position of Singapore is Bukit Timah Hill with elevation 166 m. junction of Tuas and Monday, a bridge connecting the West with Juhor.

Urban areas previously only concentrated on the northern region surrounding Singapore Singapore River, is now trading centers of Singapore, while the remaining humid tropical forests or for agricultural use. Since the 1960s, the government has built many new urban in remote areas, creating a Singapore to look at homes across the floor, though still the center area where the most flourishing. Urban Planning Committee is a committee of government specializing in urban planning activities with the task of land use and distribution as well as effective coordination of traffic. Committee gave detailed plans for land use in 55 areas.

Singapore was expanding the territory by land from the hills, sea and neighboring countries. Thus, Singapore's land area grew from 581.5 km ² in the 1960s to today's 697.25 km ² (approximate area needed Giothanh district of Ho Chi Minh City)), and can be further increased by 100 km ² 2030. (

Singapore has a humid tropical climate with distinct seasons regardless. Characteristics of this climate of pressure and temperature stability, high humidity and heavy rainfall. Temperature change of about 22 ° C to 34 ° C (72 ° -93 ° F). On average, relative humidity about 90% to 60% in the morning and afternoon. During prolonged heavy rain, relative humidity often reaches 100%. The highest temperature and lowest appeared as 18.4 ° C (65.1 ° F) and 37.8 ° C (100.0 ° F).

General information of Vietnam Graphic

Geographical location: Vietnam is a country located on the Indochinese peninsula, Southeast Asia, the Pacific coast. Vietnam has a land border 4,550 km long land borders with China in the north, with Laos and Cambodia in the West division, the East China Sea. On the map, Vietnam strip of land an S-shaped, extending from latitude 23o23 'North to 8o27' north, 1650 km long from north to south, the moon, about 500 km inland, where nearly 50 narrowest km.

Vietnam varied terrain: hills, plains, coast and continental shelf, reflecting the historical development of geology, topography in the environment long monsoon, humid climate and a strongly weathered. The topography is lower in the northwest - southeast, is evident in the flows of major rivers.

Delta accounts for a quarter of the land area of mountains and hills separated in many areas. At both ends of the country there are two large plains, the fertile Red River Delta (Red River basin, large 16,700 km2) and the southern delta (Mekong River basin, 40,000 km 2 wide). Located between two major deltas is a chain of small delta, located along the central coast, from the plains of the Ma River basin (Thanh Hoa) to Phan Thiet with a total area of 15,000 km2.

Vietnam has three faces east, south and south-west coast looking out to sea with 3,260 km from Mong Cai in the North to Ha Tien in the Southwest. Sea part of Vietnam's sovereignty extended to the east and southeast, including the continental shelf, the big island and small islands surrounded. Tonkin Gulf alone has a population concentration of 3,000 islands in the region Ha Long Bay, Bai Tu Long, Cat Hai island, Cat Ba, Bach Long Vi ... Further to the Paracel and Spratly Islands. South-west and south, there are groups of islands including Con Son, Phu Quoc and Tho Chu.

Climate: Vietnam lies in the inner belt of the tropical year round high temperatures and high humidity. North under the influence of the Chinese mainland should more or less mainland climate. Profound effect on the East Sea to the nature of the tropical monsoon humid land. Tropical monsoon climate, there are one in the whole territory of Vietnam, forming regions with markedly different climate. Vietnam climate change seasonally and by region from low to high, from north to south and from east to west. Strongly influenced by the northeast monsoon, so the average temperature in Vietnam is lower than average temperatures in many other countries in Asia the same latitude.

Vietnam can be divided into two major climate: (1) North (from Hai Van Pass out) is a tropical monsoon climate with four distinct seasons (spring-low-Fall-Winter), influenced by the northeast monsoon (from the Asian continent to) and South-east monsoon (blowing through Thailand, Laos and South China Sea), with high humidity. (2) Southern (from the Hai Van Pass) are less influenced by the monsoon climate is quite tropical air conditioning, heated all year round and divided into two distinct seasons (dry and rainy seasons).

Besides, due to the topographical structure, Vietnam has the sub-climate regions. There where the temperate climate, such as Sa Pa, Lao Cai province, Da Lat, Lam Dong province is where the continental climate such as Lai Chau, Son La. This is the ideal place for tourist resort.

The average temperature in Vietnam range from 21oC to 27oC and gradually increases from north to south. Summer, average temperatures across the country is 25oC (23oC Hanoi, Hue, 25oC, 26oC Ho Chi Minh City). Winter in the north, the lowest temperature in December and January. In Northern mountainous regions such as Sa Pa, Tam Dao and Hoang Lien Son, temperatures down to 0 ° C, with snow.

Vietnam has a great amount of solar radiation with the number of sunshine hours from 1400-3000 hours per year. The average annual rainfall of 1,500 to 2,000 mm. Air humidity is 80%. Given the influence of monsoon and complex topography, Vietnam is often prone to disasters such as storms, floods and droughts.

Rivers: Vietnam has a dense network of rivers (2360 in the 10 km long river), flowing in two main directions of Northwest and Southeast in a bow. The two largest rivers are the Red River and Mekong River delta, create two vast and fertile. System of rivers and streams are added each year to 310 billion m3 of water. The water supply for rivers and streams flood season and dry season. Flood season accounted for 70-80% of water all year and often cause flooding.

Land, plants, animals:

Land in Vietnam is very diverse, with high fertility and favorable for the development of agriculture and forestry. Vietnam has a rich flora and diverse (approximately 14 600 plant species). The vegetation is mainly tropical forests, including trees sunshine, high temperature and high humidity.

The fauna in Vietnam as abundant and diverse, including many precious species listed in the World Red Book. At present, there are 275 species of mammals, 800 birds, 180 reptiles, 80 species of amphibians, 2,400 species of fish, 5,000 species of insects. (Dense forests, limestone mountain forests, and multi-canopied forest habitats of many species of monkeys, langurs, gibbons and wild cats. Langur endemic species of white-headed langur of Vietnam is, langur and white shorts, black langur . Likewise, there are many species of birds such as pheasants and neck cavity ocellata. high mountains in the North have many furred wild animals like bears, dogs, foxes, civet ...)

Viet Nam flood

The rains have stopped autumning and the water level has visibly lowered. But the possibility of finding the missing is reduced after several days of searching," said Hoang Van Quyet, an official with Quang Binh province's natural disaster committee.
Quang Binh was hardest-hit by the flooding sparked by heavy rain over recent days. The province recorded 33 dead and 13 missing.
Another 16 people died in Ha Tinh, Nghe An and Quang Tri provinces, with three missing.
In Quang Tri, roads and agricultural land remained inundated, said Le Chi Cong, of the provincial disaster committee.
"This will certainly affect rice production for the winter-spring season," Cong said, adding that landslides had disrupted traffic flow in the province's Huong Hoa district.
Quang Tri is already a poverty-stricken province where more than 80 per cent of the land is affected by unexploded munitions from the Vietnam War, according to an official survey last year.
Foreign tourists interested in the province's numerous wartime battle sites regularly visit the area.
Food and emergency medical supplies are being sent to affected communities, state media reported.
Central government officials launched a nationwide campaign for donations to help the flood victims, state television reported.

Vietnam's Geography

Vietnam's Geography

There are four geographic sections in Vietnam, ranging from rugged mountains to marshy fertile flatlands.  Vietnam's "S" shape takes it from China, in the north, the the Gulf of Thailand in the south.  In the north, there are mountains that extend up to 3.143 m at Fan Si Pan, the highest point in Vietnam; the east and southeast consists of the Red River Delta, an alluvial plain; south of this Delta is the Truong Son (Annam Highlands) which is considered to be the backbone of Vietnam.  A plateau (Central Highlands) also occupies this area and can be found between Cambodia and the South China sea.  The Mekong Delta is located in the southernmost portion of Vietnam and makes up a fertile, marshy flatland that goes from the Central Highlands (north of it) south to the mangrove swamps on the Ca Mau peninsula.

The Red River and the Mekong River are navigable in their entirety and are considered to be the two major rivers in Vietnam.  To help prevent flooding in their deltas, a system of dikes and canals has been erected.  This has helped improve farming in the Mekong Delta due to salt water flooding from the South China Sea, especially during the long, wet monsoon season.  

Vietnam's climate is amazingly varied, but this is due to the vast range of latitudes and altitudes in the country.  The average temperature in the north is about 81 degrees F (27 degrees C) and in the south a nice 70 degrees F (21 degrees C) and is generally humid.  Two monsoons control the weather, one is considered to be a dry monsoon which occurs mainly in the north from about October/November to March.  The other brings wet, warm weather to the entire country, with the exception of the mountainous areas, from April/May to October.  July and August are considered to be the hottest and most humid months.
