Primarily grown in tropical countries like Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia, the durian is distinctive for its large size, strong odor, and thorn-covered rind. "A large spiky outer shell reveals a creamy, almost custard-like flesh, which, besides boasting a mildly sweet flavor, is notorious for being incredibly rank-smelling," according to TasteAtlas.

However, durian has become a popular staple as it is used to prepare specialties such as cakes and puffs, ice cream or shaved ice, durian fritters, tempoyak (fermented durian) or Thai-style sweet soup. In addition to durian, dragon fruit from central Vietnam with red skin, white flesh and tiny black seeds also joined the list along with Colombia's Tamarillo, known as known as tree tomatoes, Spain's persimmon and Portugal's red passion fruit. Unpopular the world over, durian and … [Read more...] about Durian among world’s worst rated tropical fruits: TasteAtlas

There was no immediate official word on a possible motive for the gun violence, which unfolded on a warm, sunny spring morning not long after classes had begun at The Covenant School, whose students consist mostly of elementary school-age children. But the suspect had drawn detailed maps of the school, including entry points for the building, and left behind a "manifesto" and other writings that investigators were examining, Police Chief John Drake told an early evening news briefing. Drake identified the suspect as a woman by the name of Audrey Elizabeth Hale, 28, a resident of the Nashville area and referred to the assailant by female pronouns. But in response to reporters' questions the chief said, "She does identify as transgender." Whether the suspect identified a man or woman was not made clear. The Metropolitan Nashville Police Department began receiving calls at 10:13 a.m. of a shooter at the school, and arriving officers reported hearing gunfire coming from the … [Read more...] about Woman shoots dead 3 children, 3 adults at Christian school in Tennessee

How has 5G been piloted in Vietnam so far, and is the nation ready for commercialisation in 2023?

They are testing different frequency bands from low to mid-band and mmWave band. From the user side, the first experience of mobile broadband speed, is not too impressive for users because the current 4G speed is meeting the current needs of users in watching movies and television and so on, so the speeds of a few hundred Mb/s or even Gb/s that 5G brings is not a mass market requirement.
