Vietnamese people fighting foreigners is in their blood. Communism with Vietnamese characteristics. 😂 Vietnam is following the footsteps of China . Vietnam is still poor , So No power. Therefore , They are keeping quiet for now , keeping a low profile . After 2 decades later , if it succeeds economically , it will start to take over everything just like what China is doing now . They've got nothing to lose because They already Lost since 1975.

As an American and my Wife is Vietnamese. We have a new home in Saigon. I love Vietnam and it’s people but I do prefer Saigon the best for me. Like you said it is very international and I find that true. My wife and her family are what we would call very Westernized but still keep to some Vietnamese traditions. My wife has her daughter and husband and 2 grandchildren that live with us. I like that so much, the closeness of family. I am retired from ExxomMobil and my Wife who is a US citizen pooled our money together and had a house built in Thu Duc City outside of Saigon. Returning back in December this year and eventually sell our US home in New Jersey and live permanently in Vietnam. I listen to your channel a lot for insights on Vietnamese culture even though I am quite familiar with Vietnam for the last 26 years. Thank you for very professional vlog .

Another one (I know a lot of younger Vietnamese complain about this one in their own country) is the indiscriminate dropping of litter/trash on the streets/plastic bags everywhere and cigarettes. Some of my Gen Z Vietnamese friends have told me that it's definitely a middle aged/elderly generation problem and they feel embarrassed about it.

A lot of young folks litter as well, unfortunately. For instance, the young teacher of our kids can eat something in their school bus and then throw the pack out of a window. When little kids see that kind of behaviour from grownups around them they adopt it naturally. We ourselves have to put much more effort now to teach our kids appropriate behaviour, because we can see their negative transitioning after living here for one year. I can say the same about unhealthy habits in food (a lot of sweets, sodas, chemical contained food). A lot of time spending speaking and explaining to our kids is our salvation.

One year ago you wrote about understanding cultural differences. This Video really does a more thorough work of understanding Vietnam and its mores. In Hawa'ii, because of the heavy influences of our Asian friends and residents, we are more familiar with these. I am so happy to see that you always explain with kindness and deep understanding. I can't comprehend why some people who travel abroad don't think to be more concerned about this. I always look forward to your updates... Thank You!

Van VU thank you for this video. To me it is good to inform people about one's culture it goes a long way for better understanding and better relationships. What is sad for me is to see the new generation of Vietnamese slowly drifting away from the old culture. The Vietnamese culture has been around for thousands of years, and it is what has made Vietnam so Uneek especially when it comes to the family. That is what I love the most about Vietnam and its people. When I first came to Vietnam in 1968 and spent two years there, I learn lot of good ways and better ways to live and grow for I was a young man of 17 then. I am 74 now and still carry what I learn back then, and I think I have been a better man for it.

Vietnamese people are very understanding about the differences in foreigners and themselves. You can break almost all of these rules and they will still be very accepting of you. However, this is all spot on about their expectations of normal behavior and if you at least try to follow these guidelines you will find it very easy to fit in with your Vietnamese friends and they will appreciate your modicum of effort. My experience with my Vietnamese friends and in-laws are completely congruent with your 15 points of etiquette in this video.

Very good and accurate video. A few things that I find annoying, especially with KZbinrs from America: Some how they think it is their job to expose fake markets in Bui Vien, it is as if their countries don't have them. Also, unlike Phuc Map, they live in Vietnam and thinks they don't have to learn Vietnamese while we live in America, we are supposed to speak English. Not talking about tourists. I have been helping most of my Vietnamese friends in Ha Noi that not all foreigners (including Viet Kieus) are the greatest. Some come very entitled and "I am an American" attitude. There lots of good foreigners too but have seen a mixture.

Otherwise, everyone contributed to the improvement of the workspace. I've heard there's a bigger power distance in Germany though.

Those of us who have been around SEAsia for while and studied it will know that none of these dislikes and behaviours are unique to Vietnam. They are virtually present in all the region's countries and points to a general cultural uniformity based on a very early substrate of Indian and Chinese culture. It also points to the animist past (and present). Just one example. Indonesian will routinely ask you upon encountering you, 'sudah makan?', 'did you eat already?'.

I'd love to see a video on business practices because working in Saigon it drives me nuts that the saving face culture runs so deep that a lot of my coworkers can never admit fault or apologise for their errors. In some cases there's a lot of tiresome buck passing, excuses and, sometimes even lying, rather than a simple apology
@CaterpillarFriend

This also frustrates me about saving face culture. I’m a Euro-Australian who married into a Chinese family and the lengths that people will go to in order to save face just baffles me. I understand and appreciate the idea of avoiding conflict and maintaining harmony in a community, and avoiding embarrassing anyone. But so often I’m finding it crosses the line from consideration of others to maintaining stupidly delicate egos and giving way too much power to what other people think of you. There’s very little balance. It’s not shameful to be humble, honest and teachable.
@ngochieu_nguyen
@ngochieu_nguyen 2 жыл бұрын
That is absolutely accurate, Vietnamese right here. The saving face culture is rooted deep over generations, as many people are told to stay away from problems as much as they can, hence some tend to not take responsibility even though they're obviously at fault. Many Vietnamese are also afraid of failures, and mistakes, and they also consider saying sorry as a way of embarrassing themselves. This is not only true for some Vietnamese in the workplace, but even at school, many have the same character trait.

Very simple. You just need to meet them privately in a room with no other people or outside a bar, pub or coffee shop to change the matter. Vietnamese people save face with others in the same workplace but are receptive to opinions, not conservative. Just do it right and the problem is solved.

About number three: When I lived in China, I almost immediately noticed girls holding hands while walking down the street or in the shopping areas. At first, I was taken aback, knowing how their culture frowns on same-sex couples. But I quickly learned that it is common, just as you showed in Vietnam, and simply friends being close. And I would *love* to hear all about Vietnamese customs in business. That would be great! My head was *_swimming_* for a while when I was first learning all the business customs in China!

@@WhatThePho Well, I haven't been there yet! Remember? LOL! But in China, there are _SO_ many! Like, you must hand your business card with both hands, and the receiver MUST take it from you with both hands. And, you must NEVER put the business card in your back pocket (close to your bum). And again, by the same token, you must never get your card *from* your back pocket to hand it out! If you ask the other guy out for a business lunch/dinner, then you should pay. And they will try like *mad* to try and pay because then they feel like they commanded the deal/meeting. You are also expected to drink booze at these business meals, and that can sometimes go overboard. It's all very macho. Speaking of which, I had a secretary/interpreter who would travel with me. And she pointed out that they always made weird faces when we arrived and would be very cold towards her, even during the introductions. She explained that it is because business meetings, especially at meals, are considered to be for "the men". It was pretty funny. She laughed about it. (You remind me of her because she too had spent 5 years in the US and not only spoke perfect English, but she also understood our customs) There are many more, but I honestly don't want to offend anyone in case they take my observations the wrong way. Anyway, that's why I would love to hear all the cultural ins and outs of doing business (and having business meals) in Vietnam.

I love learning about the culture of other places. I think Americans are seen by others as quite ignorant because Americans can be rude while abroad without really meaning to. I don't travel much, but when I encounter someone from elsewhere I like to show I know something (especially if it is obscure) about that culture. It shows respect and fosters friendships. I was working in a hotel in Yellowstone and I met a family from Ireland. I said, "If you're from Ireland then I have to ask: How's the craic?" They looked really shocked for a moment then they were really delighted. Turns out the craic was brilliant. I bet hearing that question with an American accent was the last thing they ever expected to hear.

Plus, everyone has different preferences, and I think pressuring people to eat your food would be ruder than simply politely declining.

Is Viets are so goodie good & prim and proper. I like them a bit naughty 🤣. Thank you for being informative, definitely a good reminder for people that have been out of the country for so long. Keep up the awesome work.

I read about the Mongol invasion of Vietnam, they didn't get very far. The signal for come here/go away could cause a dog to attack you. Vessi is designed in Vancouver and manufactured in Vietnam and Cambodia. Being from Toronto, this is the first time I've heard of them.

From Canada and I've always remove shoes at the front door place them neatly. Unless we're running in and out. That's because I don't know where your shoes have been.

As a staunch Hindu and an Indian, I would like to point out that touching feet at the altar is bad not because feet are the least important part, but because feet are assumed to have dirt which will soil the altar. In our culture, we take blessings from elders by touching their feet, as a sign of respect that I am not bigger than the mother earth.

So why you put the alter on the floor where people walk around with their bare nasty feet. Common sense, put it on a table then.

I was in the train station in Ga Thap Cham and there was a was a vietnamese woman keep sneezing not only one time but 3 times while walking besides other passengers waiting for their train schedule . If I'm not mistaken she works as a helper, weighing luggage at the station. Gosh she might not know the it's very rude.
