Celebrations are planned in Vietnam in April to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the end of the war with the USA, but there have been reports of planned violence during the festivities in Ho Chi Minh City and other urban areas. Potential targets include foreign businesses in Vietnam and Vietnamese affiliated facilities in Phnom Penh. Vietnamese authorities are increasing security as a precaution.
