Re: Understanding Vietnamese Life Partner
 

I meet alot of vietnamese WL and poor vietnamese. Their thinking is defintely different from student (from middle class family) and businessman/woman who are rich.

My viet g/f belongs to the poor and there is a lot of struggle to get out of that state. :(

Re: Understanding Vietnamese Life Partner
 

I find poor ger mentally stronger n more mature than rich ger. :rolleyes:

Re: Understanding Vietnamese Life Partner
 

With 'Vietnam’s inflation hits 21.4 percent in April' and 'rice shortages and rising prices worldwide', i think we bros who has girlfriend or baxa from poor family will be feeling the heat as well.

My gf complain to me about the increase in house rental in HCMC in Feb. Yesterday my gf complain to me about the price of rice... she got to eat less now or cut down the meal. :(
In HCMC, rice now costs as much as VND20,000 (US$1.25) per kilogram, VND2,000 to VND4,500 ($0.13-0.28) higher than two days ago.

Hope she is really mentally strong to pull through all this shit.

What would the middle class and rich vietnamese think about these 2 issues?

I was shocked when I read the Straits Times today. "21.4%" is a lot. :(

Re: Understanding Vietnamese Life Partner
 

A lot of vietnamese students in singapore have the mentality that they come from the rich family and they can do whatever they want in Singapore, as if they get into trouble, their so called `rich parents' will help them out. Now viet students are so famous for cheating landlords of their rents till many landlords refused to rent their apts to vietnamese students. Its a vicious cycle la.

part of my business deal with foreign students transferring to overseas universities and i have been seeing the great difference in wealth from students from china and vietnam. a few thousand singapore dollars is easy task for china students who can pay a lump sum fee and pay on time, while that same sum is difficult for Vietnamese students, who always drag for time and have great problems paying. Wealth doesn't depict a person's credibility, but arrogance shouldn't be present in the first place.

But i have also seen a handful of wonderful and good vietnamese students in singapore who study hard and have good credibility. Some of them come from very rich family and whose parents are top CEO of big government companies. Although rich, they do not show off to others and remain humble. For these vietnamese students, i salute you.

I can understand how the normal vietnamese try to struggle for their daily life now. With almost every other thing rising in prices, staying in the city is no longer that easy. Even in modern day singapore, many families are feeling the pitch with the overall increase in prices. For example, if a family with both husband and wife working used to have an income of $10,000 a month, they can live a very good life last time. But nowadays, the purchasing power of their $10,000 a month income may have shrink by 20%.

No matter what, creating a mockery out of others is uncalled for. Good humble exchange of information among forum bros are encouraged.

"Understanding... 29-04-2008 12:47 PM You are wasting money taking viet language courses. Never marry viet dogs as wife lah, they only interested in your wealth not your personality!! Tell that to your donkey-ass viet-loving friends too, KNNBCCB!!"



First of all, a big thank you to the "GENTLEMAN" who zap me 2 points. I'm fine with it. We, having Viet gfs or wives are entirely our own choices and we live with the fact.

Secondly, be it Viets, PRCs etc, they are also human beings. So, please do not label them as animals and treat them with respect. Maybe you do have a vendetta with Viets but please keep it to yourself. To each his own.

Thirdly, please do not insult my bros in this forum as they do deserve my respect and admiration with their contributions in the various threads.

Last but not least, please let me know your nickname so that I can reciprocate by upping you with my 3 humble points. I will PM whoever I know of to do the same too.


Cheers,
Techno

Hi all brothers

I am planning to marry my vietnamese GF 20 year old, which we have been dating for 3 yrs now.

I got absolutely no idea how to go about doing it. Anyone can assist me in advising step by step on where to go and what to do?

BIG THANKS IN ADVANCE

Re: Understanding Vietnamese Life Partner
 

Bro, you are not alone. recently I also kena zap and could be from the same guy:

"You are Singaporean Chinese right ? someone english educated why must learn this type of dog's song ??"

Re: Understanding Vietnamese Life Partner
 

If your gf is only 20 years old, u can only marry her in vietnam. marrying in vietnam is much more tedious than marrying in Singapore. Why not wait for one more year for her to turn 21 yrs old then marry in Singapore? If you really want to get married in Vietnam, then you must prepare the following:

(1) bring your passport to a Singapore Notary Public and have it certified. following that, bring the notary public certification to the High court's Academy of Law to further certify. Last stop will be to the Vietnamese embassy in Singapore for final certification.

(2) Go to registry of marriage to make a check on their system to verify that your name is not in the list, print out the result of the check and this will prove your singlehood.

(3) Bring the documents to her province government and lodge a request to marry. The officers will meet you and her in different rooms and ask you the same same question on how the both of you met. Both of you must give same answer, or else, good luck ... Sometimes they may even ask you for photos of both of you while you were dating.

(4) Both of you will also need to go to a mental hospital in HCMC where they will ask you simple questions like `are you OK?' to certify your mental health. (makes you feel that they think you are crazy to marry in vietnam.. ahhaha)

(5) Once the provincial government approve the marriage, a date will be arranged for both parties to sign on the marriage record book.

generally, these are the steps involved in marrying in vietnam. So if any vietnamese reading this is `laffing' away and think that i am writing rubbish, you may not know this better than me. but if you think you know this better than i do, then maybe this is not the first time you are marrying a foreigner. ;)

that word KNNBCCB meant "fark your mum's....."...since it is scolding one's mum in zap comment...maybe can ask forum's boss about it since he dont like pple to do that in zap leaving such comment :confused:

Re: Understanding Vietnamese Life Partner
 

If we see our relative earning much more than us and we expect them to help us in everything, then this is seriously a PRIDE problem. If no pride, then can always ask richer relative to help in every way. ;)

"Understanding... 29-04-2008 11:30 PM A lot of fat silly Sg men got cheated by greedy vietnamese gals who wanted to marry Singaporen. You got to be careful.. vietnamese are not good people, and so are the idiotic people who like them."
