For example, building a similiar building in Singapore may just need 3 years, but in VN, they will need 6 to 8 years to complete.

When i went back with my wife to her province, i observe how her BIL (construction supervisor) comes to work with his workers. Starts work at 9am, but takes 30 mins break for tea first. work until 1130am, go for lunch. Come back at 2pm, work till 330, tea break again. then 450pm, stop work. With this type of working attitude, how to get the work done? For my office, my staff comes in for work at 830am, off for lunch at 12 noon till 130pm. Then work until 5pm. considered very good roi. My first office in HCM many years ago, i remember they come to work at 9am, off for lunch at 1130am till 130pm, then off work at 5pm. Very good life.

I'm in construction, my Indian workers work very hard because I give them rewards. If they finish work on time, I'll write 2 more hrs O.T. In VN I guess there is no motivation and incentive, so what is the use of working hard ??
