1. Magical houses, made of bamboo viet nam :http://noithattreviet.com.vn/tin-tuc/cafe-duong-nguyen-khanh-toan-lam-tre-bamboo -thanks
2. Penis and balls souvenirs. Yes I said it. Pause it at 6:59
3. Such deep thoughts. So much talk and self congratulations. You must have had to strip the island of an entire bamboo forest for that huge atrocity....meanwhile the poor locals have to pay high prices for bamboo because of your greed.
4. It is going to get ruined once the white man begins to exploit this resource. Sad.
5. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KEMVH3xvXf4 My Bamboo Living Home on Maui. Actually three separate kits from Bamboo Living Homes connect by floating breezeways. Love this home!
6. Awesome! I want to do the same thing in Hawaii! I'm inspired...Thank you!!!
7. im disagree about "build with bamboo". Yes, Mr. Miven's comment, it's take a long time to regenerate bamboo.
   I'm from indonesia.
8. Bamboo also flowers and dies at some point in it's life. In some cases this life span is over 100 years. It will grow back, but there is the decade long interval where there is no bamboo supply once every century or so. This happened in Japan in the 1950s and is why everyone was forced to switch to other construction materials, and probably the reason bamboo is not used as much as it should be today.
9. My name is Sergio G. MONTANIA DIB and I'm living in Corrientes, Argetina. Here a have a similar cane than bamboo named "TACUARA" Your perspective is very interesting to begin considering your application here.
