Well, a lot of the Vietnam TCPMer have not been in contact with the rest of the TCPM family. Perhaps, we will see more of them in the future now that the country is openning up. That video sounds very interesting. Besides this one you mentioned there is also another one that I have heard of, which is from Sifu David Chang (Boston?) who did it to showcase TCPM to the Vietnam military and/or law enforcement agencies. I have a tape of some of the people in HK doing almost the exact same forms you have mentioned plus Sau Fa and Counter knife. They (the HK group) have also put it into VCD format adding a few more interesting stuff into in such as the Sword vs Saber. Anyway, I think you are lucky to have a copy of the Vietnam Sifu's tape.
