Video: Local YouTuber Gives Away Free Ice Cream to Saigon Commuters

Troy Nguyen runs a YouTube channel dedicated to Vietnam. While most of his videos focus on his travels and interesting aspects of Vietnamese culture, every now and then, he sets out to help the people of Saigon in small but meaningful ways. Last week, to celebrate 5,000 subscribers to his YouTube channel, Troy took to the streets around Ben Thanh Central Bus Station to give away free ice cream to commuters languishing under the hot, tropical sun.

We applaud his efforts and salute him for finding the people's proverbial sweet spot - free stuff and ice cream.
