I don't like that feeling.聽 I'd rather earn respect than get it automatically, by virtue of having been born over different dirt.

It gives me the excuse to walk out in shades with some Viet coffee in hand (because there isn't a Starbucks on every corner )

I like how the Vietnamese have embraced Capitalism with such fervor. Their entrepreneurially spirit would make even Ronald Reagan proud!

One more: swearing like a sailor in English and no one understanding. Remembered that one while getting bike road rage earlier.

Just an observation, Vietnamese seem nowhere near as afraid of the cops as Americans do, and I don't see Vietnamese lowering their voices, looking around nervously, and speaking behind their hands like Americans have been doing since 9/11.

I can guarantee you will not find anyone doing any type of protesting on the streets of Ho Chi Minh city and its not because they have nothing to protest against. It's because they fear the government. There have been occasions where protest have taken place and the police moved in and arrest those involved and confiscated cameras of bystanders. People associated or related to Viet Tan members are routinely harassed

Well, you come up with some *effective* way to discourage some kind of consumption in the USA, especially anything related to petroleum, and as soon as people start using less of it, you click the stem of your stopwatch.聽

See how long you stay out of jail.
