Comment 15 for bug 121540

I can hardly understand the "too long" argument when "Asia/Ho_Chi_Minh_City" is only 21 characters long but you can find other time zone specification as long as 30 characters, eg "America/North_Dakota/New_Salem"...

Note also that, after tzdata source inspection, I can see multiple translations of "Saigon" into "Ho Chi Minh" which is simply totally wrong.

At the minimum "Asia/Saigon" should be changed to "Asia/Ho_Chi_Minh_City", since the city name was changed to the name of the Vietnamese President after the liberation from U.S.A. people in 1975, the old name remembering to some people the old ages.

But it *really* should be changed to "Asia/Hanoi" because it is the "Vietnamese's main city" from the Vietnamese government point of view!

Microsoft have done this change (moving from "Saigon" to "Hanoi") since Windows XP, it's 6 years ago and I can't believe it takes so long to make the same with FOSS... Please don't give them arguments against us!! :-(
