The ASEAN Hive VIP Lounge has a massive amount of Halloween gear this week after a container washed ashore stuffed full of these goods.

     Each year China sends an unknown amount of Halloween themed goods to the USA for this holiday that so many Americans can't get enough of. Well, every now and then we are able to pull some strings and make things happen. In this case a shipping container conveniently washed ashore right outside the VIP Lounge's marina. What a coincidence right?

     The USA won't even notice a missing container because there is no end to the American shopping habits. Their loss is our gain, and now we all get to have a little Halloween fun long before Americans even get their hands on all those masks and costumes. The goods are scattered on the floor of badminton arena, so please help yourselves and pick something you like. If you still have some time, reach out and scare someone, oh yeah, and do check out these not ghoulish posts from each of our VIP delegator tiers.....

Foreigner arrested for brandishing a firearm in a bar in Vietnam

by: @gabe.radke - ASEAN HIVE 💎 VIP DIAMOND

^{(ᴇxᴄᴇʀᴘᴛ)} For those who don't know "brandishing a firearm" simply means that the dude pulled out a gun in public in a threatening manner. This is highly illegal in most places but it is extremely illegal in Vietnam because nobody is allowed to have guns other than the military. Some news outlets are concealing his identity and others aren't. The rules of innocent until proven guilty doesn't really exist here.

A trip to the aquarium here

by: @luueetang - ASEAN HIVE VIP 💿 PLATINUM

^{(ᴇxᴄᴇʀᴘᴛ)} Good Morning, to all my friends.. I am going to visit the local aquarium here in Miri. The first thing that I am going to get here in Miri is the new Capybara blindbox at KFC. Blindboxes are getting quite popular these days. It seems like every company releases its own blind box. I had to order a whole box of fried chicken to get this blind box. I am trying out the new feature here. The colour text. Wow. Something fun to do.

A little story with our activities today, there are many stories in one day

by: @newhope1988 - ASEAN HIVE VIP 👑 GOLD

^{(ᴇxᴄᴇʀᴘᴛ)} Hello everyone. Today's story takes place from morning to evening, with other activities interspersed throughout life. Each day's activities vary somewhat. Mostly, when I'm at home, I only do a little bit of everything, as I'm mostly busy with my crocheting and housework. I also tend to a little bit of childcare. This morning, the atmosphere was very nice. I woke up early because I had something to do with my mother-in-law.

Purple sweet potato dessert

by: @piyamas - ASEAN HIVE VIP 🥈 SILVER

^{(ᴇxᴄᴇʀᴘᴛ)} Today I made a sweet dessert from purple sweet potatoes. It's another dessert menu that I really enjoy eating, and it's very easy to make. You just need to steam the purple sweet potatoes until cooked, then mash them and mix with coconut milk and flour. Then, take the mixture to stir and cook until it becomes thick and sticky.

My Little Bear, Caramel: A Friendship That Stood the Test of Time

by: @wanderelle - ASEAN HIVE VIP 🥉 BRONZE

^{(ᴇxᴄᴇʀᴘᴛ)} I don't know why, but when there are things that are so important to you, it feels like you can't easily let them go. There are some things that money can't buy, especially when they have good memories attached to them. For me, Caramel is one of those things that I treasure the most 💖 Caramel is a little brown bear. I named him "Caramel" because I just love anything with caramel flavor. My cousin gave him to me when I was 12 years old before they flew to Canada.
