Description: |
|
Before the cyclo arrived in Vietnam, there was the rickshaw, a
harsh and cruel means of transportation, which even the French
authorities found to be inhumane. So, in the early 1930s, the
French Public Works Ministry began trials on three-wheeled
replacements, showcasing their new designs in Paris with high
publicity shows that featured Tour de France winners in the Bois
de Boulogne. Two years after those first prototypes, a man named
Pierre Coupeaud designed and built his own version to bring to
French Indochina. |
