Re: Understanding Vietnamese Life Partner

Can see from a lot of posts in SBF that a lot of fellow bros seems to be hoping that other bros can regard him as the `King of Saigon' or even `King of Vietnam'.

From my personal experience and opinion, i will think that the following minimum criterias are expected of you if u want others to regard you as `king of saigon'

(1) Have minimum investments of a few hundred thouand US$ in Vietnam / Saigon. Don't say the company you work for, but personal investments, either in your name or in your wife's name. These investments should be earned by your capabilities in Vietnam
(2) good connections in vietnam / saigon. To know high ranking or even chiefs of Saigon Police and immigration is basic. Other than that, connections in other government ministries are also necessary. At the same time, should also have good connections with underworld. Want to teach someone well is just throwing out cash and locals are all ready to do it for u.
(3) Know more useful places besides the bars, discos and coffee joints. Know how and where to make money in vietnam etc. Know other provinces well too.

these are just my humble opinion of some criterias that will make a singaporean `the king of saigon'. just a opinion that counter the many SBF bros that are fighting for other's recognition.
