Pronouncing Initial 'Ng' /ŋ/ Vietnamese Surname Nguyễn, Thai, Indonesian and other Asian Languages

Next to getting the tones right, the initial 'Ng' sound that is found in so many Asian languages proves to be one of the major pronunciation issues for non-Asian learners of 'initial ng' languages.

The languages that have an initial NG sound include:
Thai
Lao
Cantonese and other Chinese Languages / Dialects (especially southern dialects)
Bahasa Indonesia and Bahasa Daerah (regional Indonesian / Malay languages)
Tagalog and other languages of the Philippines
Vietnamese
Hill Tribe Languages in SE Asia
