The Vietnamese government is considering banning ‘small-chested’ riders – a bewildering move in a nation of smaller people.
The Ministry of Health recommended (as part of an overall plan to improve the health and safety of Vietnamese people) that bikers whose chests measure less than 28 inches, along with those considered “too short” or “too thin”, would be prohibited from riding motorbikes.
"From now on, padded bras will be best-sellers," said Bo Cu Hung, a popular Ho Chi Minh City blogger. "I'm not heavy enough, what am I going to do?" Le Thu Huong asked in a letter to Tuoi Tre newspaper. "And what about people whose chests are small? Most of them are too poor to afford breast implants!"
The average Vietnamese man is 5 feet, 4 inches tall and weighs 121 pounds (55 kilograms). The average Vietnamese woman is 5 feet, 1 inch tall and weighs 103 pounds (47 kilograms).
