I dont know why they like to chop on the last page but the only reason i can think of is they are lazy to find that page which have the chop when we depart and is easier to locate if is at the last page.

Can call it lazy or can call it a smart way.it depends on how 1 look at it
Vietnamese way of doing things are often very different from the rest of the world. For example, when i first went VN, i was at my friend's place and wanted to turn on the electric fan. I turned the nob to Number 3 and the fan speed was so low, then when i turned to Number 1, it was full blast. Talk about special, they always do things the other way round
