Vietnam noodle vendor who imitated 'Salt Bae' to mock minister jailed

A noodle vendor in Vietnam has been sentenced to five-and-a-half years in prison over a viral video that was viewed as mocking a senior government official. In 2021, Bui Tuan Lam was filmed imitating the cooking gestures of celebrity chef 'Salt Bae' days after Vietnam's Public Security Minister was seen eating gold-encrusted steak at the chef's restaurant in London.
