February 2005 - Quang Binh, Vietnam - Military workers and members of the Vanguard Youth or &quot;compulsory workers&quot; are commissioned by the government to repair this section of the remote Trung Son Highway or the 'New' Ho Chi Minh road as it traverses through the jungle at the Da Deo pass. This section was the scene of an enormous landslide and after four months of working they are yet to finish and secure the area. The location of much fighting during the Viet Nam war, this remote jungle is still the site of many landmines and MIA's. The road, started in April 2000, travels north of Ho Chi Minh (formerly Saigon) for over 2000km following the old routes of the Ho Chi Minh trails and it is believed by the Government that this road will open up this remote region of Vietnam. It is a belief that is disregarded by most foreign governments as the Viet Nam government has already invested over US$700m in the project, twice its budgeted amount. This area is the problem; an area of frequent landslides and malaria, making the continuous repair work long and hazardous for the workers. Photo Credit: Luke Duggleby
