SAIGON, VIETNAM

Contributed by: The James Bond Movie Encyclopedia by Steven Jay Rubin

City where James Bond (Pierce Brosnan) and Colonel Wai Lin (Michelle Yeoh) of the Chinese Secret Service go to track down a killer stealth ship in Tomorrow Never Dies.

This is a rare geographical identification error for the series. In reality, Saigon’s name was changed to Ho Chi Minh City after the end of the Vietnam War in 1975 (even though locals apparently still call it Saigon).
