But also gangs of young vigilantes patrolling the wooded area at the southern end of the beach and along the beach itself on the look-out for any & even remote signs of hanky-panky, even between ortho-sexual couples.

I have lived in NT for several months and I highly recommend to avoid the beach area at night. The discot. at Nha Trang Lodge hotel is a well known pick up place with "normal" gays and of c. MBs as well. Besides police in NT is well known for being a bunch of scum bags. There is a pattern: Prostitute (m/F) picks up customer on the beach and takes him to a quiet place where soon police will show up and catches customer "in the act", police takes at least 50 USD and shares it later with the prostitute. I was told this story by taxi drivers and some close (straight) Vietnamese friends. Besides it is forbidden...by law.. that a Vietnamese person shares a room overnight with a foreigner unless they are married. Of course there are hotels everywhere with a special relationship to police but raids in hotelrooms at night DO happen. I have a good friend who has been married to a V. lady for 20 years. When travelling Vietnam they have to show their marriage certification in order to avoid booking 2 rooms. I never could find out if this law refers to same sex couples,too but I think so.
