Food & drink: Food and drink are generally considered safe but there is risk of parisitic infection and toxins from raw seafood.
Other risks: Typhus occurs in some river valleys. Japanese encephalitis may occur and paragonimiasis has been reported.
Health care: Health insurance is strongly recommended, owing to the high cost of treatment. The International Association for Medical Assistance to Travellers provides English-speaking doctors. There are hospitals in all major cities.
