- Does Vietnam belong to Asia Pacific region?
YES

- Why Vietnam is seen in Travel but not in Asia Pacific?
There are 2 reasons:

+ Firstly, Vietnam is a good destination to travel to, many places. Vietnam is safe, people are friendly, price of everything is cheap ... The number of people who travel here increase every year.

+ Secondly, it's the technical reason. The number of people who are using Internet in Vietnam is about nearly 25% of the population (Vietnam has the population of about 86 million people). There is another section only for Vietnamese on Yahoo Answers:
http://vn.answers.yahoo.com/
(Beside Yahoo Blog for Vietnamese, Yahoo Mail for Vietnamese ...)

But Vietnamese people speak Vietnamese as the mother language, so that you can see a lot of questions and answers in each category in Vietnamese section of Yahoo Answers, but in English section (like this category for instance), there are not so many questions. However, technically to make things easily to manage, Yahoo made the categories in English section and in Vietnamese section the same. Browse your profile, for example:
http://answers.yahoo.com/my/......
And then add "vn." on the left of the url:
http://vn.answers.yahoo.com/my/......
You will see that the categories are the same (where you asked the questions or you answered the questions) but the languages have changed.
This also explains why sometimes some Vietnamese guys posted the questions in this category not in English but in Vietnamese (by a mistake) ^_^

Might have an answer if I could find Asia Pacific, where ever it is buried.
Possible answer is that Vietnam is okay for Travel but otherwise not interesting.
edit
When I go back after answering, I find
Home > Asia Pacific > Vietnam > Other - Vietnam > Open Question
at the top, but while answering I find
Home > Travel > Vietnam > Other - Vietnam
But Asia Pacific is not on my list from Home (in USA) so where did you find it?

Great question and I don't have the slightest idea except that perhaps too many people have been posting questions and answers through the travel link and not through the Asia pacific link...

Maybe Yahoo will listen...maybe not.
