a. People go to school, learn nothing useful but only learn the Art of giving the white envelope
b. Many (not all) Vietnamese stupidly placed Education above everything else... they believe, if u study hard and score well, u automatically become higher beings!
c. The school itself, which is a TOTAL FAILURE (100%), does not even teach the students from young basic social skills such as to queue up, all learn that the big and strong gets ahead, the small and weak have to wait. With such schools and teachers, what else can they fucking teach????

#2 The Pride
==========
This is especially true to the Northern people and even more so of the simple minded people from the provinces. Even when they are in the wrong, and proven beyond reasonable doubt that they are in the wrong, they prefer to die than to admit that they are wrong... and after u are out of the picture, they all gang up to brag about how right they were!

#3 The Government
===============
This one no need to elaborate, but the point here is that it ranks not at the 1st and 2nd position.

Conclusion
========
In my many years working with various level of people in Vietnam, i can tell u this... the higher educated they are, the more eat-shit attitude these people have... and their knowledge and skills are very narrow and shallow and yet they think the world of themselves!

I had a lot better success working with Vietnamese who grew up in HCMC (which is a much more metropolitan city) as well as people who does not believe in the tertiary education system of Vietnam.

Those who swear by the tertiary education in Vietnam, u can definitely tell that they are all too useless and prideful and employing them will be a big big mistake! If u have such people working for u, u have to constantly teach them how to be considerate human beings before u teach them about work.

You have sum up what i have experienced for the past years in VN. CLAP CLAP!!! I always wonder how good can they get when they do not even know that we are asians and we place our surname infront, not like ang moh who place it as LAST NAME. For example, Nguyen Thanh Hoang should be addressed as Mr Nguyen, not Mr Hoang... hihihi
