Summer in the countryside may seem idyllic, but it can be punctuated by drama. Here is an account of a dogs trials and tribulations in the beautiful Dordogne Valley...
The C担te dAzur is beautiful in September even though her beaches suffer from human disrespect. A look back at an otherwise very pleasant stay in Provence.

Die C担te d Azur ist im September am sch旦nsten aber auch ihre Str辰nde leiden unter der R端cksichtslosigkeit der Menschen. Das regt mich auf, ich muss etwas tun.

Sometimes the words line up on the page as if by automatism. There follows a relief. These last months, nothing. A few laborious lines, an empty mind. The feeling of being part of a world that turns less and less round, that has become so incomprehensible that to be interested in it is to get lost in it. A world that lacks atrociously of humanity.

The document discusses how language and society's imagination have evolved during the COVID-19 pandemic. Several new words related to the pandemic like "Covid-19", "teleworking", and "vaccination center" have been added to dictionaries. The meanings of words like "confinement" have also changed. The anchoring of this new vocabulary reflects the reality that the virus is not going away and will continue to impact lives, though some places are returning to normal activities like open cafes. The document questions what impact the pandemic will really have on society and whether attention on essential workers will remain after the crisis or if society will forget and focus only on returning to pre-pandemic activities.

Vietnams Growing Medical Tourism: Tran Quoc Bao at the ForefrontIgnite Capital
油
Nikkei Asia - Vietnam is quickly becoming an emerging hub for medical tourism, with advanced treatments, cutting-edge technology, and affordable healthcare services attracting international patients. Dr. Tran Quoc Bao, Chief Commercial Officer at Cao Thang Eye Hospital in Ho Chi Minh City, plays a pivotal role in promoting Vietnams healthcare sector to the world. As a healthcare ambassador, he is helping elevate Vietnams medical tourism offerings, positioning the country as a prime destination for foreign patients seeking world-class care at a fraction of the cost.
Vietnams hospitals, equipped with state-of-the-art technology, are drawing both local and international patients, especially for high-tech treatments like organ transplants, cardiovascular interventions, and advanced eye surgeries. Notable hospitals, such as Cao Thang Eye Hospital, are becoming hotspots for medical tourism, thanks to the availability of cutting-edge equipment and advanced techniques, including the ReLex SMILE method for refractive eye surgery. This treatment, along with femtosecond laser techniques, has garnered international attention, attracting patients from Europe, the U.S., and Australia.
The affordability of medical treatments in Vietnam is another key factor fueling the growth of medical tourism. A LASIK treatment in Vietnam costs approximately $600 per eye, compared to $1,000-$3,000 in neighboring countries. Kidney transplants, for instance, are one-third the cost in Vietnam compared to Thailand or China. This affordability, coupled with high-quality care, has made Vietnam a go-to destination for patients seeking cost-effective solutions to complex medical procedures.
Dr. Bao emphasizes the potential of combining healthcare with tourism, noting that foreign patients are increasingly choosing Vietnam not just for medical treatment but also to explore the countrys rich cultural and natural landmarks. This growing trend of medical tourism is reflected in the countrys rising international patient numbers, as more hospitals work to create specialized services tailored to foreign patients.
The Vietnam National Tourism Administration has set its sights on boosting medical tourism further, following in the footsteps of countries like Thailand, South Korea, and Singapore. Hospitals like Cao Thang Eye Hospital are at the forefront, providing high-tech treatments while also promoting Vietnams vibrant tourism industry. With growing interest from international patients and advancements in medical technology, Vietnam is poised to become a significant player in the global medical tourism market.
Under Dr. Tran Quoc Baos leadership, Cao Thang Eye Hospital continues to build Vietnams reputation as a trusted destination for medical travelers, offering both world-class healthcare and the chance to experience the beauty and culture of Vietnam.

Tran Quoc Bao of City International Hospital Promotes Vietnam as Southeast As...Ignite Capital
油
Dr. Tran Quoc Bao, Chief Planning and Marketing Officer of City International Hospital in Ho Chi Minh City, is spearheading efforts to position Vietnam as a leading medical tourism destination in Southeast Asia. Speaking at the Southeast Asia Hospital Expansion Summit 2019 in Bangkok, Bao highlighted Vietnams rapid growth in healthcare and wellness, emphasizing its increasing appeal to foreign patients seeking affordable, high-quality medical services. With the countrys medical sector expanding by 18-20% annually and attracting over 80,000 international patients, Vietnam is on track to become a key player in the global medical tourism market.
Vietnam's strategic location in Southeast Asia, combined with its political stability, makes it an accessible and safe destination for medical travelers. According to Bao, the country's healthcare providers deliver world-class care at a fraction of the cost compared to neighboring countries, further boosting its potential as a healthcare hub. There is enormous potential in Vietnams healthcare and medical tourism sectors, Bao stated at the summit.
Despite the promising outlook, Bao acknowledged the challenges facing the sector, particularly the low level of awareness among foreign patients and the limited number of internationally-accredited hospitals in Vietnam. He proposed several initiatives to address these issues. Key among them is the creation of a nationwide campaign to raise awareness of Vietnams healthcare offerings, using digital platforms and social media to target medical tourists across the region. Additionally, he stressed the importance of Vietnamese hospitals earning international accreditation, such as Joint Commission International (JCI), to build trust and credibility.
Bao also recommended enhancing regional collaboration by sending Vietnamese healthcare representatives to participate in networking events and partnerships with associations in Southeast Asia. This approach would help spread awareness of Vietnams medical tourism potential and foster cross-border patient management systems to optimize healthcare exchanges within the region.
The Southeast Asia Hospital Expansion Summit provided a platform for investors and healthcare leaders to discuss opportunities in the growing medical tourism market, which sees millions of patients traveling across Southeast Asia each year. As a top-ranked international hospital in Vietnam, City International Hospital is at the forefront of this movement, positioning itself as a key institution in the country's healthcare expansion.
With Dr. Baos leadership, City International Hospital continues to pave the way for Vietnam to become a recognized hub for high-quality, affordable healthcare and medical tourism in Southeast Asia and beyond.

1. ANIMAL FREEDOM
& DOG WARFARE
Betty, alittle Jack Russell whogrew up inParis, arrivedin
Corr竪ze twoyears ago. A paradise for dogs. A freedom
without limits until the day when...
THAT SON OF A BITCH
ROTTWEILER
C辿cile told me the news on WhatsApp:"Betty was attackedby a Rottweiler.
She almostdied! Shesall stitchedup, cant walk, wontget out of her
basket."
The said sonof a bitch hadescaped from the yard of its owner, the one C辿cile
calls "BreakingBad," a shaggy beardedman with skull ringson his fingers.
A week later, Betty is muchbetter. Her body still covered with a thick
bandage, she managesto extract herself from her basket and waddle around
the garden. Yesterday, she even went down the woodenstaircase to the first
floor by herself.
Breaking Badcame tosee C辿cile and said he hadchained up hisdog. He has
three appointmentswiththe veterinarian, Dr. Couderc, who treatsBetty and
mustalso evaluate the dangercategory of the mongrel in question.
Chain or not, I have decided not gofor a walk on the roadto Brivezac
anymore, andwill steer clear of Breaking Badsproperty.
2. THE EXPERTS
INTERVENTION
Three dayslater. Betty returns from her third visitto the vet. New bandages.
A skin specialist from Toulouseon vacation nearby had been invitedby Dr
Couderc tocome and examine "Bettysdelicate case". Half a dozen medical
staff congregate aroundthe small, woundeddog. The high priestessof skin
applies honey to the raw flesh of Betty. Her skin, necrotic, hadto be removed
on onethird of her mutilatedlittle body. Shethen exposesher underan LED
lamp before re-bandaging.
Arriving home, the freshly swaddled Betty is thirsty. She leans over the pool. A
little too far. Shefalls in.
Pierre, who is standingnearby, divesin like a rugby player and grabsthe
sinkingdog. Pulls her up. But he hears a crack when he throws himself to the
ground. His knee hashit a rock. Pierre is in pain. His knee is swelling.
And Betty is all wet! Her new bandages, thefew hairs sticking outof them,
soaked!Quick!Call Dr. Couderc, put Pierre ona deck chair in the shadeof the
oak tree, bringice for his knee...
C辿cile goes down tothe village to buy somearnica cream. The sky blazes over
the valley; the successionof hills resemble a festoon in the flaming sky, the
crickets are silent.
