    Not sure what you're trying to ask... But Ho Chi Minh is actually the name of the pre-eminent North Vietnamese leader, Ho Chi Minh.

    Saigon was renamed Ho Chi Minh City in respect/remembrance of him.

    It`s named after the Viet leader Ho Chi Minh - however even this was not his real name.

    (Nguyen Sinh Cung)

    Chi means will or spirit same as in Chinese

    Ho - a common Viet surname (to cough LOL)

    Chi - will (or spirit)

    Minh - Light

    He chose the name which essentially labelled him "bringer of light".

    Polaroid instant picture cameras were/are junk! The film is outrageous as to cost and you are lucky to get 3-5 good pictures out of a film pack. Why all the concern about having the picture right now? Your picture WILL fade in a few years and be worthless. It takes a minute or more to see, what you got. With a digital you know if it is a good picture from the large LCD screen, the cost per print these days is "dirt" cheap, and the print does no fade like Polaroid prints do.
