09 MARCH 2006 - HO CHI MINH CITY, VIETNAM: Motorcycle traffic in Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Saigon) Vietnam. Vietnam's recent economic expansion has led to prosperity not seen since the US war in Vietnam in the 1960s and when most people once got around on bicycles, now many are buying motorcycles and scooters. This has led to increased pollution and constant traffic jams. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
