Re: Understanding Vietnamese Life Partner
There's something that vietnamese mention in 8 out of 10 sentences they made, and that is `tien'. I have never come across any race or country people that placed such utmost importance to money. Just to get more money, they are willing to do almost anything. From the lowly educated to the highly educated, from the poor to the rich, money seems to overrun almost everything in their life. Money is so important until a large proportion of them are willing to sacrifice dignity and other positive virtues just to get money. I was once like any other bro who has just got in touch with viet culture and language, curious and loving. But after being in touch with them for over 6 years, my love for their country and people have turned from curious to understand to negative. I am happy that my wife have understood the good virtues of the outside world and have practised them. Money is important, but we need to earn it with our efforts and earn it with pride, cheating and lies will not get anyone far.
