HA NOI (VNS)—May’s consumer price index (CPI) has declined in both HCM City and Ha Noi, by 0.16 percent and 0.22 percent respectively, from the levels of the previous month. This is the third successive month the CPI has tumbled in the two biggest cities of Viet Nam. Food and drink prices in HCM City, especially at restaurants, increased slightly, while culture, entertainment and tourism services saw moderate declines of 0.09 percent. Healthcare prices also slipped down by 0.02 per cent. Ha Noi’s transportation costs dropped 0.78 per cent, the highest decrease followed by food and drink (down by 0.49 percent), postage and telecommunications (down by 0.3 per cent), and restaurants, utilities, and building materials (down by 0.04 percent). Ha Noi Statistics Office Head Cong Xuan Mui said the CPI’s decline in the capital city can be credited to low consumer demand in spite of the month’s long holiday. Three consecutive petrol price cuts in April also contributed to the CPI’s downward trend. Ha Noi is planning to launch major promotional activities involving 500 businesses in the hope of stimulating consumer demand. — VNS

Video: it's cheese rolling time again!

An army veteran from Colorado takes the top prize in the main event at the annual downhill cheese-rolling races in the rural English county of Gloucestershire. Tara Cleary reports.

TRANSCRIPT
REPORTER: Plunging down a steep hill at breakneck speed, chasing a fake foam cheese. The centuries-old race is dangerous. This year one contestant reportedly broke a leg. Big cheese for the day was U.S. army veteran, Kenny Rackers, who arrived three days early to practice.
KENNY RACKERS: "I came over three or four thousand miles just for this race. I put it on my bucket list and today it was to win and that's what I did."
REPORTER: Rackers, who first saw the cheese-rolling race on TV, paid tribute to fellow soldiers on America's Memorial Day.
KENNY RACKERS: "We're remembering all the soldiers that gave the ultimate sacrifice so I want to thank all the soldiers past and present for their service."
REPORTER: And the runner-up didn't seem too cheesed-off about losing.

2. A big cheese is an important and powerful person, especially in an organization.
3. If someone is cheesed off, they are annoyed or bored. • He's cheesed off with his job.
