Indo-China it was called in 1945. Right after the Pacific
war ended Saigon looked quite peaceful. After the independance Saigon was named
Ho Chi Minh city.

Thank you for sharing such a precious gem footage. However, it would be more
historically appropriate for this video clip to call it as "Peaceful
Saigon (or former Saigon City) in 1945". Saigon was named by Lord Nguyen
Phuc Chu since the 17th century ("the name was used officially in
1698"). Indo-china name was used for all 3 regions, Cambodia, Vietnam, and
Lao and considered as one by the French-colonials. Ho Chi Minh was only named after
the annexation of South Vietnam.
