Won't be long till the tourists are back in Vietnam. by mikedylan2001
Looks like Vietnam will go the way of many other countries in the not too distant future. Fully vaccinated tourists to be allowed in after a seven day hotel quarantine. This measure will protect people from the disease as well as protect tourist ...

In retrospect, would you move again to Vietnam? by Christine
Hi all, If you had to look back on your expat experience in Vietnam, would you heartily say "let聮s do it again"? From the preparation stage to your actual everyday life in your new country, what did you enjoy the most? Would you do certain ...
So he used a matter of expression . . . that you found offensive. U expressed yr opinion. We got it. Chill. Read More
Foreign Banks Fleeing Viet Nam by gobot
Article of interest to expats. "Fleeing" is hyperbole, and only offers speculation about why banks are leaving/divesting. [url=http://www.atimes.com/article/foreign-banks-fleeing-vietnam/]Foreign Banks Fleeing Viet Nam[/url]
There's some misinformation here. All the banks and ATMs did NOT close during the 2008 economic slowdown in the US. And a total global financial collapse? That's some amazing stuff you're reading (or smoking.) Read More

Why don't Vietnamese understand Vietnamese spoken by a foreigner? by I do believe
Having lived in Vietnam for 6 years and studied Vietnamese at the University of Social Sciences and Humanities it never ceases to amaze me that if I speak and pronounce a Vietnamese phrase perfectly to most Vietnamese, they don't understand me. ...
Hi, It's difficult to understand a word without its context. "N锚n" means " Should" --> example: Con n锚n 膽岷縩 tr瓢峄漬g 膽煤ng gi峄� ( You should go to the school on time) Other ... Read More

Just wanting to get some opinions from people out there. So here is my situation and please feel free to express opinions. Ok here it is and see ! A year and a half ago I married my Vietnamese girlfriend of 4 years. Our relationship and experience ...
Some of us want more than just a sex partner or a "business" companion (cook, housekeeper, laundress, shopper, translator, masseuse.) Don't get me wrong. All those skills are great -- and so is sex --- but late at night ... in bed or ... Read More

Sorry about that. I was typing the post while being in Hangouts with daughter in the States. Since she typed over 120 wps while I hadn't been able to place more than 4 fingers on the keyboard at the same time, I had to shorten some words when ... Read More

I have the very same problem speaking to Vietnamese-Americans in the U.S.! If I'm ordering food inside a Viet restaurant, then they usually figure it out, but often repeat what I say to make sure they understood. The sounds they take for ... Read More

Please listen to these posters. I also subscribe to a Thai expat newsletter. I see LOTS of posts about a situation similar to yours often. Stunningly, when I attended an international high school in Korea, the problem was American GI's who ... Read More

Haha. I actually was beginning to wonder if this might be a fake posting: Someone teasing us WITH a "beach" story that would go on with various "episodes" over several postings. In any case, its one of the oldest tales in the ... Read More

You are, it would appear, missing the forest for the trees. You don't have to be a police detective to see where this is going. I read the Thai expat website and I've come across several similar stories there. Many Asian women, esp. in ... Read More
