Mekong River Gate Rush

  • All ships must prepare for collisions here. If it's so dangerous, Why are people in Vietnam rushing through the Mekong River gate? The gate prevents seawater from flowing back in and stays closed during high tide. The limited time it stays open creates a strong current when it first opens. Ships must go full speed to avoid being caught by the reverse current and colliding with other ships. Despite the danger, they must pass through, or they'll have to wait until the next day if they miss the closing.

    Its only when it opens all water flows to the sea the smart thing the small boats should do is either get out of the way when it opens or go over land and drop the boats back in the water uo stream people make things more diffcult cuz of one reason or anthor and it dont make much since iver comeing one challnge will always lead to another
