Yes, I really enjoyed the video. My wife lives in District 12 HCMC. I feel very safe walking around the neighborhood at night, not so in my own neighborhood in Southern California. The people are much more friendly and happy that my fellow Americans. Even though I was an active participant in the "American War" in 1970 I have been treated with kindness and respect. I really like learning about the Vietnamese culture and experiencing it first hand. Much of Southern California culture has been been integrated in Vietnamese culture like "Happy Birthday" and wedding receptions.
Mr. Duong, thank you for this video. . I am a retired American who spent an entire month in HCMC in the fall of 2019. My apartment was located in District 4 in the Copac Square high-rise building. I did not know what to expect as this was my first visit to Vietnam. I fell in love with HCMC and the Vietnamese people. I found the Vietnamese people to be extraordinarily warm, congenial and friendly. I developed close friendships with a few people during my visit and had several interactions and conversations with many friendly people at September 23rd Park as well as other locations. HCMC is also extraordinarily vibrant, unlike American cities. I was also amazed at how safe HCMC is. I could walk around at any time of day or night without any fear for my safety. Most of the police officers I saw were not even armed with firearms. I had a marvelous visit and hope to be able to return for another extended stay soon. I watch nearly all of your videos and I often see locations in your videos I remember being at during my visit. Best wishes to you.
Great presentation! I always enjoy watching your YT. It has helped me to further understand and appreciate Vietnam as a country and its unique culture.
Great to hear!
Thank you for this video. I've been living in Viet Nam over five years and find it one of the friendliest places on the planet. VN citizens are caring, generous, kind and mostly honest. When I first came, I was invited to teach English and dealt with a male business owner; subsequently, each female employer I've engaged has always tried to pay me as little as possible - including paying me less than I originally made five years ago. After dealing with one woman in particular, I left the teaching industry but still love this country enough to marry and make my home north of Ha Noi.
Vietnamese women have always have a place in society. Let's not forget that many parts of Vietnam were based on matriarchy, even under Chinese occupation, the Chinese failed to erase that. Thus during even the harshest Chinese oppression, Vietnamese women can still own land and properties. Among the earliest kingdom in Vietnam was one establisted by a pair of women. The Trung Sisters gained their kingdom by leading armies into battles with the Han Chinese in the year of 40AD. There were many famous female military commanders in history of Vietnam such as Ms. Trieu, Le Chan, Bui Thi Xuan, etc. Vietnamese women is anything but weak or submissive.
Love your content, very interesting, thoughtful and educational!
Very well researched, presented and edited video Ken. Came from your interview video with Chad and found you have lots of great videos about Vietnam's current state. It really helps me have a wide and informed perspective before I return from my study in Australia.
Keep it up!
Thanks for your support and kind words. Please subscribe to our channel for more content.
Vietnamese don't say hello to the strangers OR communicate to the people they don't know. If they do, that is considered as impoliteness. If you come to their house or being invited you will see a huge care. That's a culture of 4000 years .
Thank you for sharing your Vietnam knowledge with us. I am glad Vietnam is improving in every
aspect of lifestyle. I hope one day we can buy land and build homes. Have a good weekend! 🙏❤
I came from Germany with my wife to live in the south of Vietnam, in a small city north of Saigon - I can acknowledge what you said.
And I add, we certainly don't want to return to Europe soon.
Goodday Ken,
What a great video I have experienced just about everything you mentioned.
I did over 10 years ago have a Vietnamese partner for 18 months but she had to return to Vietnam from Australia due to her visa expiring.
Now my eldest son is dating a Vietnamese girl who recently arrived to study in Australia & she love the fact my partner and I are so heavily involved with so many Vietnamese people here in Melbourne, she wasn't expecting that at all, & now my son wants to visit Vietnam with Vi.
Always enjoy your videos thoroughly educational just have to wait for that retirement visa.
Cheers
Louis Kats your number 1 Fan in Melbourne, Australia.
👍 🙂 🇦🇺 🇻🇳
Thanks for watching our videos and sharing your experience, Louis!
Nice video.
I was born in Quang Ninh, now live in Tay Ninh 😂. Growing up in the states I was used to saying/hearing "thank you" just as part of my interaction with people. Now it all makes sense! Thank you sir!
This is a really excellent introduction to living in Vietnam video. I have been coming to this great country since 2018 and it was really love at first sight. This is a country on the move and I think too many people abroad still have pre-conceptions rooted in the distant past, although this is starting to change. I think Vietnam is poised to move up rapidly in the international rankings over the coming decade.
Chinese people in China and overseas say "thank you" less than other nationalities. The sensible Chinese tour guides were urging the Chinese tourists to practise saying thank you.
Very good video!!! I have been to Vietnam several times as a tourist, and lived and worked there for several months 3 years ago. It is great that you have taken this time to dispel some of the myths connected to Vietnam. That's all they are, myths, and mostly originated by ignorant people who have never been there! I have thoroughly enjoyed all my time spent in Vietnam, the people are wonderful, and I look forward to my next visit there!!!
We appreciate your comment.
Great video, I lived and worked in Vietnam for 10 years and can honestly say many things in Vietnam are better than the west.
China has influenced many countries in Asia: Korea and Japan but calling Vietnamese Chinese is wrong and disrespectful. Vietnam and Vietnamese have developed their own identity and although they have borrowed things from China; Vietnam is Vietnam. I don’t think any Vietnamese would like to have a foreigner saying: you are just a Chinese.
This could even be considered highly disrespectful.
Real estate in Vietnam is even more overpriced than in most other Asian countries. Much worse than Thailand. Asian real estate is fueled by money laundering and speculation which is why prices are ridiculous.
"In marriage, the wife is God"--a saying I heard on a Vietnamese TV show.
What dose this mean coming to 🇻🇳 soon
câu nói cửa miệng của những ông chồng Việt Nam: " Đội vợ lên đầu thì trường sinh bất lão".
Thanks for the insightful content that you always produce.
It’s true in Vietnam has hierarchical. Everyone thinks they are higher than others, especially the government officials.
I always cross my arms bow and say hello to my elders and cuss out 'du ma may' to my peers.
Solid! Ken where do you recommend is a good place to get myself noticed by recruiters here in HCMC? I am an expert in marketing and consulting looking to land a corporate career. I don't speak Vietnamese.
Start with Vietnamworks website and LinkedIn. We also made a video about finding job. Please browse our channel.
Well..vietnamese people dont like to get in line. Thats a fact. I was waiting at the Airport in Saigon to go thru security when a whole train of 20 Hanoi people cut in front of me.
A chaotic society. When i was there i saw no one respect the traffic laws
I found northern Vietnamese to be super rude and yes, they don't believe in lines either.
@jackweis199 Go back to America and deal with the blacks and poor whites. It suites your life
Nooooo, Vietnamese people always in a hurry. You just too slow! I’m sure if you cut in line and I’m very sure that they don’t mind only if you were faster lol
True, happened to me too. Whole family of 4 from Hanoi tried to cut in front of me
Great desciption of Vietnam and its great people!
Being to VN many time and people are polite and respectful ,,,,when people said that it BS and VN is a great great country
GDP of Vietnam with a population of 100,000,000+ compared to Singapore (6,000,000 population) is a non-comparison. You need to compare apples with apples. Must compare Vietnam with Germany that has the same population. Compare China with India...
Per capita? That's for losers who passed 4th grade geography.
These insights are excellent. I lived in Vietnam for five years and now manage a US-Vietnamese business partnership. Your insights on Vietnamese culture are matter-of-fact and balanced.
I am interested! Retirement and investments are some of the categories!

Many good points you have brought up thank you very much especially to dispell stereotypical ignorant ideas.. Vietnam is very progressive and I can certainly see the female business owners Being a larger point and that's rather funny compared to American women who want to brag and say they are Independent or Liberated when in fact they don't have the guts to have their own business most of the time.. After living in multiple Asian countries I would have to say the Vietnamese woman is The most beautiful and brings her culture along without a lot of conflict or insecurity.. These women are stronger and tougher than most men and have a history of survival yet still soft as silk and they know they're a woman. 🙏🙏
Actually found this a bit weird but it seems to me that Vietnamese in Vietnam treat westerners (non-asians) better than VKs. Also, I think once Vietnam update their infrastructure and roadways, it would be a lot better to travel around the country.
Thanks Ken I’ve been traveling to and from Vietnam for years and years and haven’t had any issues with anything in Vietnam people are friendly,helpful, and coming back soon again
That is good video. I can update about Việt nam
On my two visits there people have generally been nice and go out of the way to help me, including that time some stranger came out of nowhere to help me translate, and in a couple of times where people tell me I've got confused by the number of zeros on the currency.
Thanks… I’m interested in finding out more about investment TRC, will email you.

Vietnamese are similar to Chinese, Koreans and Japanese in that they are success oriented and work hard. Japan and China still use Characters and this will keep them from the next level of development economically, their legal structures and acceptance by the rest of the world.
Korea chose to get rid of Characters and now use very few (and the language has changed a lot in the lats 30 years). The Korean alphabet is the most phonetic and easiest to learn in the world.
And Vietnam does not use Characters so it will pass up China and Japan going forward. I know it sounds silly to think economic development is partly based on language but it absolutely has a huge bearing on development. Kids spend so much time memorizing Characters in school they have little time for development. Modern legal structures are hard to define with Characters. And of course, few foreigners will ever learn Characters so those countries won't benefit from foreign talent and influence.
There are too much homophones in Janpanese make it is difficult to write Japanese in Latin alphbet because of vague, unclear meanings
True, but same in Korean and they managed to make changes / find a way. English has to, two and too. Why can't Japan have different spellings for homophones? I find homophones in Spoken Korean and Chinese are confirmed by the context - which is difficult, but no different than writing. @@tuananhtranhuu
I'm a Nigerian planning to come to Vietnam with tourist visa to work what are your advice
He said to click to his link for advice
Vietnamese customer services were excellent during my tr there👍
So if I was born in Vietnam but lived in America for 45 years. I could come back and get a permanent visa and buy land/ home? If so I would contact you in the future.
Thank you
So true ! America has been the worst country I’ve lived in! So many years I lived there! everyone is so rude
Question, have the Vietnamese people forgotten what the United States did to its country?
The same way French have forgotten what Germany did. It is called moving forward.
Question:
Guess what country is this?
There is a very small country but has a very big capital.
In that huge capital there are very small streets.
On these very small streets there are very large villas.
In those very big villas, there are very young ladies.
These very young ladies are the concubines of very big officials.
All these big officials has a very small briefcase.
In that very small briefcase there are very big projects. Very big projects, we all know, bring very small results .
Those very small results have led to huge losses.
And in the end, when it came to trial, the officials' crimes were treated as very small.
Answer:
The name of the country , I guess, is East Laos and I really love to be a big official of that country.
Which investor visa comes under $50,000 Ken sir? Do you have video?
None.
@@duongglobalbusinessconsulting 8:05 Then why are you giving wrong information, first check your video sir before uploading.
Which part of "roughly about $50,000 USD" don't you understand? Our Attorney never said "under"!
@@duongglobalbusinessconsulting
So if I want 1 year renewable investor visa for 50,000 USD, I can get it or not.

Could you make a video on how to buy crypto assets in Vietnam? Would be very helpful!
eh ok

this is good advices. the vetnam peoples are good peoples but some peoples plays tricks and cuts front of old peoples.
One thing for sure is Vietnam is a country with the jungle rules, and whoever go to Vietnam got to watch out!
Then, stay in you hood.
@@briannguyen0419 How many Vietnamese live in America and Europe, remind me? Shut the front door, whino.
@@telescopicS627 those Vietnamese living abroad should be grateful to the North Vietnam for winning the war, otherwise, the collective west would never allow them into their countries.
@@briannguyen0419 while vietnamese at home cry because it's a miserable communist dump. Sorry we lost the war!
@@telescopicS627 Your past grievances have had a lingering effect which I understand.
Whe I would claim unemployment in beteeen freelancing. I would call the Vietnamese line (only speak English) and would be met with nicest and most patient people this is why I’m going to VN. Loveliest people you could ever hope to meet. Plus the Women are incredibly beautiful.
A, good old (?) Ms Conception is back in business! ;)
100001 foreigners working in Vietnam seems incredibly low. In Thailand there are 3-4 million. In the UK where I live 15% of the population is a foreigner. What do you think is the reason for this?
Maybe because foreigners don't like pollution and flood in Vietnam. Hanoi is now the most polluted city in Southeast Asia, and torrential floods are now common across the country from North to South due to corrupt Vietnamese Communist regime's chopping down trees and excavating sand for personal profit.
For Thailand, most are migrant workers from Burma and Cambodia. It is not the case in Vietnam.
Vietnamese can change or be much better impressed, if Vietnamese governments spent investment in training people how to do business with starting saying hello, please, thank you for your...always. Also training people for special fields like electric circuits, computer chips, touchscreen tech due to USA 🇺🇸 will move their business to Vietnam 🇻🇳, if Vietnamese governments and people make better sense in economic and social security. You can not change the way people look at you, but you can change the color of your dress.
10 lies + 1 lie is from comment itself 😮
👍
Ignorance and rudeness is not culture. The comparison between Malaysia and Vietnam is absurd. GDP has to be calculated per capita. Malaysia pop. 33 million. VN pop. 100 million. Thus, Vietnam's GDP is 1/3 of Malaysia.
Take your logic and good reasoning somewhere else!! (Politely)
Can a Viet living in America with an American passport still get a Vietnam passport WITHOUT surrendering their American passport?
Yes. Please browse our channel and check our Vietnam passport video playlist.
Vietnam has too much depth with the us hegemony wich slow s it down!
this commentator, after viewing bits of 3 of his videos, i view as a bitter, oft-disappointed malconteent; a lonely person, one needing to be embraced by strangers
Well, we invite to watch other videos that we made so that we can have an educated opinion. Bits don’t do justice. Watch the full episodes. Thank you
Vietnam is one of the best countries to live in. I'm looking forward to retirement there. 😊
i don't think Vietnam has a retirement visa ...yet.
@@theelder91 working on getting my citizenship right now.
@@truct77 by any chance you're Vietnamese?
@@theelder91 yes but grew up in Canada, too expensive here now. Makes more sense to live back in the motherland
@@truct77 i was also born in Vietnam but grew up in America...like you i'm a Viet Kieu....i agree about returning to the motherland.
Strong and independent women are wreking Western societies today. Men in general do NOT like masculine women. Let's hope Vietnamese women do not follow the same path as Western countries. Thats why there's passport bros, men who fled Western countries like the USA to the Phillipines to find feminine women.
Not to confuse strength and independence versus toxic feminism.
@@duongglobalbusinessconsultingnice you don’t have a closed mind! 🙏🏼
all my vietnamnese friends are actually Ch1nese... Or cantonese that is. So i'm so confused. haha!
Lot of Russian live in Vietnam
Thats right we viet dont love you long time only uncle Franklin...
What ? Why is calling Vietnam a poor country not accurate ?
Your explanations of why Vietnam is not poor made no sense .
Hello. I really enjoy your videos. I am looking for an investment of around 50000 dollars. Where will I move to live in Vietnam? I would appreciate it if you could send me several examples of the apartment.
What kind of investment are you looking for?
Love VN🇻🇳🇻🇳🇻🇳
U said Vietnam people not rude u are wrong when waiting on line they cut in front of u talk me they are rudeness or not
Work on your accents and develop more personality. It will double your subs buddy
We are sure that our attorney will work on what you pointed out as soon as you work on your manners and syntax.
this dude really is selling out vietnam....
Glad you finally realized that we are specialized in FDI to Vietnam!
Hey friend, quick question, is that your accent or you tried to be more Asian?
What accent?
#1 is PNV's (VinFast) asset have close to $100 bn USD. 😅
u are lack of knowledge, now VFS is only $27... u did not updated??? and VFS is the company belongs to government.... it is not a 100% private company at all like USA, South Korea and Thailand.
you are too quick to jump to conclusion. Heard of count chicken before they hatch? VinFast will be one of the few companies to go down under in the near future. Only suckers will buy or chase a company that has "zero" foot print, especially in the US market. Impossible to tap into US market when you are up against Tesla, who own pretty much the entire EV infrastructure. Second player is Lucid but they are no where close to Tesla. Perhap they own 3-5% of entire market share. NIO is trying to get in the US for years but they will not make a dent. Anyways, it was absurd to see Vinfast have a market valuation higher than Ford, GM, and several leading car manufacturers combined! The only answer for such price spike crazy valuations is because the brokers are only allowed to buy with no option to short. Thus creating an illusion of demand. However, as we speak Vinfast stock price is coming down to earth and creating a sinkhole. It is just a matter of time before it will be less than $2, and reverse split from there. I've been trading for over 20 years, and I have seen so many companies go down under in the same format. For those considering to throw money into VFS thinking it is a bargain at this price, good luck is all I can say.
It is not about the peoples, the government is the problem, stop kiss the behind😂
Having been married to a Vietnamese wife for nearly 11 years I can see the fallacy of all of these lies about Vietnam. The idea that Vietnam is a patriarchal society is one that at least in my experience is false. The men may have flashy titles, but in my experience, it is women who run Vietnam. True story: walking through Hanoi with my father, he asked where all of the men were...I saw a coffee shop ahead and said wait I will show you. Sure enough, they were all sitting in the coffee shop (middle of the day). Again, my experience but Vietnamese women are ruthless negotiators.
lol, I don't know who this person, is he Vietnamese/or kind half/half, and don't know what he is talking about, in Vietnam, culture difference, and Vietnamese people are nice and helpful, there some gangers, and liars in business, they trick people, as same as all people around the world, but you need do more research find out people before you start business with them.
If you don't know who our attorney is, you can start watching our videos to get to know us more and do some due diligence as well. It is easy to find out more about a business and/or a person nowadays.
Good or bad only you know, the video kind insults people business in VN.
In what ways does our video insult business people?
But is it true that Vietnamese girls will love you long time ?
Probably no time for you
Love it when you say, "Well, because it has been colonized by the Chinese.." This topic over all is meaningful. You nailed it.
If Vietnam is not equal, there is no place in the world that is more equal than this country. Women are gentle and always take care of their families, they do housework and are good at domestic work. What is certain is that they are always great
Soon I am retiring in Vietname and I actually don't agree with you ... for the past 50 years, I live among Vietnamese people in Cabramatta, Sydney Australia and I have never ever seen a friendly Vietnamese person even My own neighbours from left side & right side of my property don't want to have eye contact
Vietnamese people oversea, living in a different environment is different than Vietnamese people in Vietnam.
That is very true @@titiung
Yes Vietnamese people outside Vietnam tend to be less rude and more friendly.
Eye contact is considered impolite in VN culture! Perhaps if you are good looking, I don’t think you’ll having any problem with the eyes contact especially in Vietnamese women. I’m about moving to VN to retire as well soon. I’m too ugly so I don’t expecting any eyes contact from anyone especially from the police lol
If you're not comfortable with Vietnamese people then WHY are you planning to retire in Vietnam?
but compare to Thailand, i still will choose Thailand is better than Vietnam because of Thailand has variety parties, not only communist like in vietnam, that s why vietnamese GDP can not compare with Thailand...
@altran1125 king is only the empire in Thailand, but under that king, they still have many parties to bring good things for citizen and fair in citizen rights... every 4 years they still voting .... and the other things is their currency has more power and more trust than Vietnam dong...
This isnt about thailand
@disneygirl918 the new party in Thailand just won the election by residents and he decided to give in each of thai residents over 16 years old $350 for spending.... please read and update the news in Thailand 🇹🇭.... then u will know Thailand is a variety party country long time like USA and EU.... Thailand country is for Thai residents not for only any 1 party.... understand bro???
Everything is not truth,he said, but he is the biggest Lier,he want only steal some Money, like everyone there
Not listen to that Lier Guys
