What he's missing is the love and laughter that only family can provide. I was living in South Korea for a few years and tho I was making money and the country is beautiful, I was very different from the people there both physically and culturally. Just like him I had friends and people to joke and laugh with but at the same time I was extremely sad in the inside. I got so depressed that I eventually had to move back home. At first I regretted it because I was saving so much money while there. But now that I'm back with my family everyday I'm the happiest I've ever been.
@Tyrone Catkiller Kang I thought you were just curious but I now I see you're just an ignorant jerk. Just because I'm black and of African descent does not mean I'm from Africa. As a matter fact I have never been to Africa. I will be going to Kenya for the first time in October. Why dont you work on enriching your mind by travelling. Your comment makes you sound so small-minded.
Mr Duong Nem is fascinating. A man was dropped in a strange land and not only did he survive but he adapted and is now thriving. Such a wonderful human being.
Kyle Le Dot Net What does that even mean? I want to see you spend a month in his country without any of your luxuries. Just your "skills," and see how you fair out.

"When I let my daughter drink milk, I also give the grave next to her some milk." His kindness showed the true essence of humankind. He's a good man, without a doubt.
It's called giving "libations to the gods." Ancestor worship is among the earliest religions practiced in Africa. The "gods" spoken of in this context are deceased ancestors.
He's definitely depressed. His heart is in Vietnam. He needs to go home to feel happy, but he's worked so hard to reach his lifestyle in Senegal and knows he will start from the bottom back in Vietnam. He fears struggling financially again and does not want to give up the success he's currently achieved and worked so hard for. Money Vs Family.
It's what happens when you only chose the dark side bit you know better. Wanting to have the world...be known etc generally leads here. I found a really uneducated comment from him so he's definitely conflicted in his soul. In some parts he seems empathetic but not in a particular comment I found uneducated and offensive to my people. I hope he gets his life in order. It's a struggle to be forced to adapt but at least for him it's a choice. Some countries don't allow people of color to openly have their culture without ridicule and many have lived in confusion as well. We still fight for the right! People lack empathy so they only see their perspective or things as it only pertains to them. Clearly he's hurting like people in Amerikkka who we're intruded on and still are. Hope we all figure out who we are and who we are suppose to be not to mankind but to God. Materialistic things do perish as well as the flesh. Adapting to anything other than the earth is stressful for those who are cultured. Perhaps those who still hold on to culture will always be torn souls until this rat race is ended? 🤔 Most don't even know how to live off the land. That was part of the earth's purpose.
Hầu hết mọi người ko để ý chứ để làm ra 1 video chất lượng như vầy phải đầu tư rất nhiều công sức. Vậy nên a xứng đáng nhận đc 1 lời cảm ơn😄. A big thanks to you👍🏼👏🏼
The original people have always been nice to people that's why the most high bless them he knew the only way they would stray when others spirit come in the universe knows all things it watching everything and recording everyone so that's what the whole world will be judged by don't be fooled everything has been recorded from the beginning you only fool your self that is something man should realize when he think he has gotten away the universe knows it all
then try checking out "diannainkorea" Her channel is about her experiences as a black woman married to a Korean and they have twins together. They lived in Korea for years and seem to be pretty successful there.
Câu chuyện của anh thật cảm động, anh Dương! Em cũng là một người Việt xa quê, và cũng sẽ không ngừng vươn lên từng ngày để sinh tồn và giúp đỡ người thân ở Vn!!!
"You have to get used to a country and then it's livable." Those are profound words. I'm impressed by his resilience, adaptive flexibility and courage. His experience is an example of adversity building character.
you'll know how strong you are, when being strong is your only choice.. he had no choice but to adapt quickly with the surroundings because if he doesn't he wont survive
As a Filipino, I definitely relate to Duong's story. Aside from fertilized duck embryos, another thing Filipinos and Vietnamese have in common is RESILIENCE. I hope Duong would find happiness in Senegal.
Doesn't matter the nationality, but where you're from and where you're brought up. Anyone whether Filipino, Vietnamese, Chinese, Caucasian, etc. who are brought up in a first world country without hardships will always be less resilient than those who had no choice but to be brought up in poorer and less developed country.
@@SN-si5zmI love how us Filipinos Vietnamese and Chinese (Koreans and Japanese and Thai also) people travel the globe and make home in nations that are not ours . A lot of the time we face discrimination and hardships but we still thrive ❤️❤❤❤ I would love to meet more Asians abroad . Also I love meeting Africans immigrants in the USA they are so nice and friendly .
This made me cry. Such a humble and hard working man with a clean mind and a pure heart. I pray that God helps him to find a way to be reunited with his wife and daughter in his beloved motherland 🙏
Zeramey For your information you can get Iphones that are second hand for very cheap depending on the model so your theory goes straight out of the window, DUH. DON’T judge everybody by your own LOW standards
@@JulieJulieTheRockChickhermiz Ummm duhhhh no you cannot find a cheap iPhone 7, especially in Senegal. If he wanted to go back he would have, the minute he reliazed he had been duped. You know you cannot buy a one-way international ticket right? Unless you have papers that show your status. Why are you getting testy? Lol. He is a hustler and I respect his hustle. It's not like he will have better opportunities and attention in Vietnam
I believe that this man and the Senegalese people are a match made in heaven.Both humble ,sincere,hardworking and kind.You are truly an inspiration to the whole world. God bless you.
I think a Vietnamese have more in common with Senegal than anyone coming out of America. Americans are use to a certain set of standards. Even Black Americans. We will not settle for anything, even if it means it would free us from some of the harsh realities of America. But to a Vietnamese, he has discovered paradise. There are many places in his home country that are worse off.

qolspony Actually you’ll be hard pressed to find a worse situation in Vietnam for a Vietnamese man.
I'm very proud to bring original content like this to you guys and I appreciate that you guys are enjoying the Vietnamese abroad series. This was one of the most laborious and difficult videos to produce, but I am truly happy to bring these stories to you guys. Please consider sharing this video with your friends- an email or a Facebook share would be highly appreciated. I will release another video in exactly one week of the Polish Vietnamese experience. The next week will be all filming and I won't have a place to sit and edit. Thank you for the support, I especially need it now more than ever to create content like this. Thank you. (NEW VIETNAM VIDEOS WILL RETURN NEXT MONTH)
Kyle this was an amazing video, it's like watching a show right off of a television network. keep up with the good job and make more stories like this so people can understand how lucky they are.
Really appreciative of your work. I begin to be aware of Vietnamese workers in Taiwan few years ago, and their stories were attractive to me. Few years latter I got a chance of working in Vietnam and have some contact with the Vietnamese from different background. There are still many to discover. Your video is touching! I really find those living abroad with strong wills, adapting themselves in a difficult life for cuốc sống. Thanks Kyle showing beautiful stories. Besides, your video shooting skills do inspired me somehow. Thanks !
As much as I like food and traveling, I've done hundreds of videos of them already. They might get more views, but artistically, I wanted to make videos that challenged me more and tell stories. These types of videos are way more time consuming and expensive to produce, but I'm happy to share these stories. With that being said, there will still be food and traveling videos. I just want to mix it up. The same content gets stale over time.
Beautiful job, Kyle... What a moving story. You are enlightening the world about the lives of people who have no voice.. I hope Duong finds some happiness in his future.
@@sashandiaye for a vietnamese person is an strange country man, most people don't even know this country exist or imagin where is located or whatever shit like that you know...
See how African respect foreigners, you know what really pissed me off when African go to abroad western world or Asia they treat us like nobody............
wow this makes me feel so grateful and lucky to be surrounded by people i love. i couldnt imagine being in duongs position. what a strong man and a humble soul. i hope one day i can be as persistent and courageous as him.
Africans are the most friendliest and open minded people in the world. I wish every human had the heart of Africans. This would be a better place. I am from Ghana and I know why I say this. This man should be working in one of the big restaurants in Senegal. In Ghana we have many Chinese, Indians, lebonese, etc. We live peaceful with one another. Why can't the rest of the world do the same? I think he is happy. He just miss his family. I think he should go on vacation to Vietnam. That will make him happy. He miss home. There is nothing like the place you love. He is a survivor. I don't know how he survived not speaking the language and not knowing anyone. He is inspirational. God bless him and may his business grow to the point he become very very happy. He is not content. He wants more. I pray he gets everything he wants. He will always have a home in Senegal even if he choose to leave. Senegalese are very peaceful and quiet people. I visited there with a boyfriend that was from their. It's kind of boring compared to Ghana. I hope he visits Ghana one day. I don't think he would come back to Senegal. He would do better in Ghana.
Zarasha1 exactly Africans are the most friendly and open-minded and that's how they're descendants wound up being on the slave ships shipped all over the world
he got very emotional after seeing the first version and i got emotional seeing him emotional too. he was very happy with the results. i actually revised this documentary four times, which is unheard of, but I wanted to do it as best as I could with the time allowed.
I am senegalese and watching this video made me think about those foreigners out there trying to make a living in a hard environment they are not really used to. The video was kinda sad but i see hope. I wish i knew him so i could help him be more comfortable in Senegal. Fighting !!
He is only one that could make himself happy/comfortable not somebody's else. Beside, it looks like the beautiful juicy girl is giving him some pusss, LOL. What more could he ask? Senegal is a nice country. Some say he is stuck in Africa ( Senegal, for those who fail geography). Buying a ticket to Vietnam should be fairly affordable. I think he is struggling with his past. Few advice for him: Keep working hard ( he is just doing that), found a family or keep smashing that juicy girl. Just Enjoy Life!
van tam huynh thank you, yes we so friendly and acceptable all type people, no discrimination, everyone visit any country in Africa, will get great experience, senegal is my neo neighborhood country, I’m from Cape verd
...also they know you're just a tourist lol I mean you don't blend in. Once you're back in Amerikkka you're just as brown as the rest of us here according to whites! Let me see you navigate corporate Amerikkka 😂 especially not speaking English.
@@xiongnu6373 you're full of it. You most likely approach or see blacks in america with that attitude, and that's why experience what you experience... You're getting back what you put out...
I enjoyed this video. It made me cry. Obviously he made it but he is lonely and wants to go back to Vietnam. It is hard to leave a place once you have established yourself. Despite his sadness and loneliness, he is a very strong and determine individual.
This story is so compelling, it's beautiful. I am so pleased to see how people struggle and fight to survive in life and to make the best out of any situation. Keep going my brother, may God be with you and bless you!
I’ve been watching this for over 30 times since you uploaded. Well done Kyle! Thanks for showing me how you mixed video and audio together (on facebook messenger). It’s been 2 years ago since I was working around with one of my first videos, WOW! Time flies! You recommended the Zoom H3 but I saved money and got the H5 btw. Give me heart when you read this.
You're going to love this Viet kieu return story I'm currently filming right now. It won't be up for a while though.... but in the mean time, a lot more great content is coming your way.
Tralala T I agree so much. And here we are in complaining about our privileged lifestyles and the "work" we have to do to pay bills and eat at restaurants and watch movies .. gas for our cars... I do Not Know Yet what TRUE hard work is. I can only empathize. This film is immensely humbling. Thank you Kyle. It was amazing. I'm sitting on the edge of my seat awaiting the sequel. And to you Duong...thank you...thank you for inspiring me. You make me feel so much more grateful for everything I have and don't have in my life. But trust me, You have more happiness within you and around you than most of us roaming the US. I hope that you realize that within yourself because you deserve all the great things in life for the sacrifices you've made. Most especially You deserve to FEEL Happiness . Your hard labor over the years is very honorable. I am so grateful to have stumbled upon this video at the right time. I'm so inspired. Thank you again. ❤️
Kyle Le Dot Net Hello from Australia 😊 If you set up a GoFundMe account I would love to help contribute to this mans return visit home to Vietnam 🇻🇳 This story has touched my heart and I'm sure many others too.. Thanks for sharing Kyle!
Noodle 101 he doesnt need a GoFundMe, did you not watch the entire story? He said he's a made man, he has nothing to worry about even if he returns in Vietnam. From what I can tell, he would love to go back home to Vietnam. But, he had suffered enough to get where he is right now. It would be a total was of efforts and sufferring if he choose to leave Senegal. He invested too much time, effort,sweat, and tears.
Ace Andersen are you paying attention? he said he can't leave behind the life he has built. but wants to return. he is in Senegal because he doesn't have the means to start all over again. he is lonely and sad and it's difficult.
Amazing to see this man going somewhere completely different from home, and even being tricked into it, and actually make something from himself. Truly a special story. Thank you for sharing this!
@@NamuBang He was tricked, clearly he thought he was going to France I am Vietnamese BTW. You are one of those Blacks that think they are Asian and want to prance on everything getting super offender for us thinking you are MS. Know It All. Thanks but no thanks
Mong anh Dương mãi mãi là tấm gương sáng làm việc chăm chỉ cho triệu triệu con em Việt Nam noi theo. Chúc anh và gia đình mạnh khỏe và hạnh phúc. Rất biết ơn Ad và ê kíp đã vất vả làm clip cho đồng bào khắp thế giới xem.
Tôi k giỏi tiếng anh, nên tôi cmt tiếng việt, xem xong video này của bạn, tôi thật sự thấy khâm phục chú này. Từ một người k có gì trong tay, k thể giao tiếp nơi đất khách quê người mà xây dựng được một cơ ngơi ntn.
Buồn kinh khủng, đó là cảm nhận của tôi.Với những gì tôi thấy, nỗi khổ cực của anh nó thấm đẫm trong từng cử chỉ ,không thể dấu nổi...Nhưng lạy trời ,cũng may cho anh còn sống sót qua những tháng ngày cực nhọc cùng cực...
Tôi đã khóc khi thấy sự nghẹn ngào trong ánh mắt của 1 người chấp nhận sống gian khổ, khó khăn & nhọc nhằn khi phải rời xa quê hương của mình như anh !
I salute this Man. He is not only brave, he is brave and strong. Going to another Country and not speak a word of the local language, still managed to do so well is just BODACIOUS. I wish him well. God Bless Him.
This is an amazing video. I hope that he finds happiness in his heart and goes home to his family. Family is everything. Really loving your vietnamese stories abroad X
Kyle, your work has evolved into pieces for pure empathy. I would have never seen this astounding perspective if it weren't for you. We're all cheering you on, so please, keep on truckin'.
Oh, and I already filmed the Vietnamee man in Africa in VIETNAM!!! Yes, there's a follow up video! He'll make a return to my channel in a month or two - depending on edit time... Thanks guys
I'm so happy to hear that he gets to go back to Vietnam, and that we get to be a part of it. I hope he finds happiness regardless of where he is. Excellent video by the way. An amazing story well told. Subscribed in the first couple minutes. Looking forward to checking out the rest of your videos.
Kyle Le Dot Net your video makes it seem as though there are but a few Viets in Senegal. but in Dakar alone there are a couple hundred full and half Vietnamese, why don't you show them?
I don't know them? I cant just come up to them and start filming them? I never saw any other Vietnamese or Asian people while I was there. Maybe you can put me in touch with some?
His story tells me that you can be from one country but belong to another... it's all about learning to adapt wherever you are placed....love your story.
Kyle has done many GREAT things. Like giving and doing Charity at the orphanages and bringing awareness to them and so on...To say this is the best thing he has ever done is Outrageous. This was a great documentary. I know I'm taking it out of context, it's was intentional.
All I can say is that, In this documentary, he never mentioned any form of discrimination or harassment. It's obvious black folks represent the race of humanity, the language of love... I'm not too sure what would've happened if it was the other way round!!! Black race = One love for humanity.
I think everyone is missing the point. Seems to me his survival is based on the acceptance of the people there. They seems very friendly and accepting. Afticans are in general. If the role is reversed we'll see huh! Give the host country some credit.
There's hundreds of thousands of Africans living and working in China. The world is an accepting place for people who have good work ethics and well behaved, no matter where you go.
Wow!!!! I've been to Africa East 2x...i understand him and his sacrifices all through those years..i understand why he can't leave it yet to come back to his mother land..that country he has endured so much that made him it close to his heart..the friendship there is warm.. but I really really respect him for trying to survive he said he was crawling from scratch to fortune.. Asians are hard working people..ill credit Vietnamese are hard working people. I also love your food.. surely your beautiful and friendly people ...love from Philippines and here in South Korea..!!!!
David Sanchez One has public beheadings and stoning, the other has the rape culture and a caste system. You sir, are a comedian 🤣. You must want him to have daily heart attacks.
One tough soul. I hope his relatives abroad connect with him to provide sponsorship. Stick with this type of production, at least a bit longer, it's captivating.
I don't know, if that was the reason then he could unbury the grave and bring the remain home to Vietnam. Besides the mentally religion reason, I can only think of is his body has bled blood, tears and sweet too much in this new land country more than his motherland. He is really officially a member of this new country. Tough and emotional when has to decide what to do.
Great video! I love Vietnamese people. They are humble, hardworking, polite, friendly. My dad had a Vietnamese family working for him in his small business , and the mother would make us kids those rice paper spring rolls, the same ones this guy sells. They are incredible! One of the best things I ever tasted. We learned to make them in my family. You have to get the rice paper from an oriental market. I've never been able to find these in a restaurant, not even a Vietnamese restaurant. You either have to know someone who will make them for you, or learn how to make them yourself.
Which ones are nice, the ones that sold the ISRAELITES(Black Americans)into SLAVERY. Why the vietmanese in Africa the same reason CHRISTOPER COLUMBUS came to America. WAKE THE HELL UP!
Hey Kyle, As a Viet Kieu (from Australia) I found this very interesting and thought provoking. It sounds tragic when he says he was conned and somehow landed in West Africa since it was not his initial intention. But it seems he has made a decent living thru hard work and the kindness of locals. I also watched the sequel and I guess his heart now lies in Senegal. Another reminder how lucky I am to be privileged. Thanks for making these mini movies of Viet Kieus (other than ones living in Aus, Can, US...)
Truly respect his resilience, tenancy and hard. Great video- gave me perspectives and it’s so nice to see how kind the people of Africa are to a man completely of different cultures
Senegalese here ! Touched by your hard working spirit and happy that you could make it here ! Hope you get what is it your heart is longing for. Will come eat of your famous nems one of these days
Malick D.Z I am from Malaysia and I have met a few people from Senegal during Haj. I have a lot of respect for them. Strong willed, very dedicated and highly devoted.
@@ZabriZA Glad my fellow countrymate left a good impression. I been wanting to visit Malaysia for a while now, specially since Senegalese can visit visa free :')
Fun fact: 2002 was my first World Cup and we were assigned countries in class to look up facts about. I got Senegal and figured they could be my team in the abscence of Vietnam, so my first World Cup game I saw live on TV was the win against France, seeing them make the quarter finals felt great and for some reason I almost cried when they lost on golden goals to Turkey in the quarters... I was a wimpy child. Even though I don't follow their exploits as much these days, Senegal are my boys, congrats. That's how I got to know the country Senegal. Senegal beating France(1998 World Cup champions) was like the greatest thing ever in 2002 World Cup. El hadji diouf made his career based on that game.
@@Khmerwarrior200 haha same here man these were the time I was so much invested into the team. I met even Korean people who knew Senegal just coz of that, it kinda put us on the map lol
Brilliant work Kyle! What a great story about Duong. Moving, well edited and filmed, and facinating. This should be entered at Canne or some short film festival. Brilliant, beautiful and refreshing. ty
I am aware that many countries are different within Africa and that Africa is a continent with diverse cultures. However, most people don't know where Senegal is or that it's even a country in Africa, I had to include Africa in the promotions and title simply for search-ability. Africa is just searched more commonly than Senegal. , I needed a title that is good for searches and to catch people's instant attention because of the effort, resources, and time it took me (by myself) to film and edit this. This was also the only video of Africa I ever made so far, so I wanted it to stand out. So I hope you guys understand my reasoning for titling it the way I did. I also put in parenthesis (Senegal) and even within the video, I gave a brief description of Senegal. Again, no disrespect to anyone or anything, but I titled it for strategic view purposes. WIthin the video I did mention that I was in Africa and it felt very surreal... well that was true.. it was my first time on the continent. It wasn't my way of over generalizing all the countries... it was just a statement about the first time I step foot on a new continent. I said the same thing about Europe when I went to Germany for the first time as it was the first time I went to Europe. Sorry if it offended anyone and I have titled it more appropriately. .

*Africa truly is a beautiful and potent continent.* TV paints a wrong picture. The only things bad are the historical and present exploitation of Africa by outsiders and the corruption of their own governments. These two things are the reasons why growth is hard. It makes African scholars leave Africa to go somewhere else because they also know future is close to impossible with high-placed people taking everything for themselves. For the continent itself, it's very rich in resources.
I've been doing a lot of research on Rwanda (because I plan on leaving the USA) and I found out that Rwanda pretty much has the most efficient and cleanest sewage system. Like who knew? I might visit Rwanda to see what it's like there and maybe live there.
Great job Kyle. This is a rare documentary. One of your best videos uploaded. This man's will to live is phenomenal. I need to make my siblings watch this so they can understand how fortunate they are. Keep up the good work my man.
Couple of things. 1. This video has layers to it. Very deep. You have to watch it a few times to grasp all that is here. 2. The man is suffering from trauma. That is why he feels so empty despite finally having material things. He hates his job because he primitively knows he needs space to process but the work hours do not allow him the luxury. He would be just as unhappy in Vietnam. 3. When he says he was happy making less, that is due to being in survival mode. When you are happy just to eat and have shelter your problems are simplified and your brain will not waste energy on emotional well being but the physical. 4. Props to this man. He has heart but there is always a price to pay for bravery.
He can't go home because he got too used to the struggle there. I hope he can find happiness either in Senegal or by going back home some day. Bless this man
Hey Kyle, thanks for doing this video. Its one of your best vlogs so far in my opinion. Brought a lot of meaning to us watching this video on so many levels of spirit. Good to know Anh Duong Nem is doing well in Senegal. Hopefully, he will find inner peace in coming years. Dillon
How ignorant are those people thinking that Senegal is a shithole and are surprise to see a nice car there! This guy lives in a poor area of Dakar. Even in the popular neighborhoods, you'll find nice homes, nice cars and other nice things. Don't even get me started on areas like Almadies, Fann, Mermoz, Plateau, Hann Maristes, etc. which are very opulent. Travel more and you guys will discover that the majority of Senegalese people are not starving to death even though the country has work to do to be fully developed.
Meaning that Senegalese elites are has selfish and arrogant as any elite anywhere and do not mind living in opulence among high rates of inequity. It s very true that mankind, black or white, is the same everywhere. Edition - In a world of limited resources and a growing population some type of socialism (fair redistribution of resources) will have to be implemented or barbarism will be the world`s condition.
I can confirm. I stayed in over twenty houses/shacks/huts during my travels across West Africa.... and the nicest was in Dakar (four levels with gardens and servants). The wealth disparity there is huge.
Creepy Marshmellow Don't say we, because this man does not represent a whole country. Just because this man made it does not mean that you will make it too. Stop feeding your pride.
Anh Dương ơi anh anh là người đàn ông đáng khâm phục, trải qua bao khổ sở mà anh vẫn vui cười lạc quan, chúc anh nhiều sức khoẻ, đi lại cản thận anh nhé, bây giờ còn trẻ anh hãy cố gắng để dành tiền, sau này về VN anh sẽ cảm thấy tốt hơn. Thank Kyle for giving me the chance to know more about Vietnamese people around the world, this is very heart touching for me.

What he's missing is the love and laughter that only family can provide. I was living in South Korea for a few years and tho I was making money and the country is beautiful, I was very different from the people there both physically and culturally. Just like him I had friends and people to joke and laugh with but at the same time I was extremely sad in the inside. I got so depressed that I eventually had to move back home. At first I regretted it because I was saving so much money while there. But now that I'm back with my family everyday I'm the happiest I've ever been.
@Tyrone Catkiller Kang I was an English teacher in the public school system and also a private tutor.

"When I let my daughter drink milk, I also give the grave next to her some milk." His kindness showed the true essence of humankind. He's a good man, without a doubt.
It's called giving "libations to the gods." Ancestor worship is among the earliest religions practiced in Africa. The "gods" spoken of in this context are deceased ancestors.
married young lady and you will be happy
He is truly a wonderful man. Maybe he'll find a companion.. Will he marry again? Seems if he had a wife like him, he could feel better.
this is common in Vietnam, our culture respects the those who died regardless of the fact that they are our relatives or not.
I believe you are also a good person
He's definitely depressed. His heart is in Vietnam. He needs to go home to feel happy, but he's worked so hard to reach his lifestyle in Senegal and knows he will start from the bottom back in Vietnam. He fears struggling financially again and does not want to give up the success he's currently achieved and worked so hard for. Money Vs Family.

"Everyone loves money." "I have money, but I don't have happiness." Damn man.... Those are some strong words.
you don't know happiness because you don't close to God,,,
your heart is empty, that's why
Jefred Entertaime , me to, boring life !
@tomjan He contradicts himself and seems to be heavily conflicted. I just hope he's not exploiting those people, in any way.
It's what happens when you only chose the dark side bit you know better. Wanting to have the world...be known etc generally leads here. I found a really uneducated comment from him so he's definitely conflicted in his soul. In some parts he seems empathetic but not in a particular comment I found uneducated and offensive to my people. I hope he gets his life in order. It's a struggle to be forced to adapt but at least for him it's a choice. Some countries don't allow people of color to openly have their culture without ridicule and many have lived in confusion as well. We still fight for the right! People lack empathy so they only see their perspective or things as it only pertains to them. Clearly he's hurting like people in Amerikkka who we're intruded on and still are. Hope we all figure out who we are and who we are suppose to be not to mankind but to God. Materialistic things do perish as well as the flesh. Adapting to anything other than the earth is stressful for those who are cultured. Perhaps those who still hold on to culture will always be torn souls until this rat race is ended? 🤔 Most don't even know how to live off the land. That was part of the earth's purpose.
Wealthy people are normally unhappy, you need to love yourself to feel rich
Hầu hết mọi người ko để ý chứ để làm ra 1 video chất lượng như vầy phải đầu tư rất nhiều công sức. Vậy nên a xứng đáng nhận đc 1 lời cảm ơn😄. A big thanks to you👍🏼👏🏼

Thank you
then try checking out "diannainkorea" Her channel is about her experiences as a black woman married to a Korean and they have twins together. They lived in Korea for years and seem to be pretty successful there.
Câu chuyện của anh thật cảm động, anh Dương! Em cũng là một người Việt xa quê, và cũng sẽ không ngừng vươn lên từng ngày để sinh tồn và giúp đỡ người thân ở Vn!!!
As a Senegalese... I love this so much. We will welcome anyone and everyone with welcome arms and I believe it should be like that everywhere!
"You have to get used to a country and then it's livable." Those are profound words. I'm impressed by his resilience, adaptive flexibility and courage. His experience is an example of adversity building character.
He's a typical Viet. We are a resilient and resourceful breed.
Typical of all immigrants who leave their beloved homelands
you'll know how strong you are, when being strong is your only choice.. he had no choice but to adapt quickly with the surroundings because if he doesn't he wont survive
@@lacviet3575 That is true respect for Viet. The tenacity of the people is beyond compare!
@@vi683a respect 👊
This is the best videos I have seen in years from blog traveller. Absolutely amazing story and experiences.
As a Filipino, I definitely relate to Duong's story. Aside from fertilized duck embryos, another thing Filipinos and Vietnamese have in common is RESILIENCE. I hope Duong would find happiness in Senegal.
Shiro Amakusa that is very true, us Viets and Filipinos are very hardworking people.
Doesn't matter the nationality, but where you're from and where you're brought up.
Anyone whether Filipino, Vietnamese, Chinese, Caucasian, etc. who are brought up in a first world country without hardships will always be less resilient than those who had no choice but to be brought up in poorer and less developed country.
@@SN-si5zmI love how us Filipinos Vietnamese and Chinese (Koreans and Japanese and Thai also) people travel the globe and make home in nations that are not ours . A lot of the time we face discrimination and hardships but we still thrive ❤️❤❤❤ I would love to meet more Asians abroad .
Also I love meeting Africans immigrants in the USA they are so nice and friendly .
Being a Vietnamese man, I honestly wish him to enjoy himself for the rest of his life... I sympathize when seeing his watery eyes...
This made me cry. Such a humble and hard working man with a clean mind and a pure heart. I pray that God helps him to find a way to be reunited with his wife and daughter in his beloved motherland 🙏
This guy is pretending for the camera, if he wanted to go to Vietnam he wouldn't have purchased an Iphone...duh!
Zeramey For your information you can get Iphones that are second hand for very cheap depending on the model so your theory goes straight out of the window, DUH. DON’T judge everybody by your own LOW standards
Hi Julie hermiz..
@@JulieJulieTheRockChickhermiz you are right Julie. Some people pretend to know everything.
@@JulieJulieTheRockChickhermiz Ummm duhhhh no you cannot find a cheap iPhone 7, especially in Senegal. If he wanted to go back he would have, the minute he reliazed he had been duped. You know you cannot buy a one-way international ticket right? Unless you have papers that show your status. Why are you getting testy? Lol. He is a hustler and I respect his hustle. It's not like he will have better opportunities and attention in Vietnam
I believe that this man and the Senegalese people are a match made in heaven.Both humble ,sincere,hardworking and kind.You are truly an inspiration to the whole world. God bless you.
I think a Vietnamese have more in common with Senegal than anyone coming out of America. Americans are use to a certain set of standards. Even Black Americans. We will not settle for anything, even if it means it would free us from some of the harsh realities of America. But to a Vietnamese, he has discovered paradise. There are many places in his home country that are worse off.
qolspony Actually you’ll be hard pressed to find a worse situation in Vietnam for a Vietnamese man.
@@qolspony we rather have Asians than Americans anyway.
I'm very proud to bring original content like this to you guys and I appreciate that you guys are enjoying the Vietnamese abroad series. This was one of the most laborious and difficult videos to produce, but I am truly happy to bring these stories to you guys. Please consider sharing this video with your friends- an email or a Facebook share would be highly appreciated. I will release another video in exactly one week of the Polish Vietnamese experience. The next week will be all filming and I won't have a place to sit and edit. Thank you for the support, I especially need it now more than ever to create content like this. Thank you. (NEW VIETNAM VIDEOS WILL RETURN NEXT MONTH)
Kyle Le Dot Net
How did you find out that there is a Vietnamese man living in Senegal?
I'll write a full article on this experience in a bit. You can read it on the Huff Post. We met through serendipity and fate.
Wow...i think this is the best work you have done. Hopefully you check out Melbourne, Australia one day.
My wife taught English in Poland for 2 years back in the early 90's. She would love to see a story about the Vietnamese living there!
Kyle this was an amazing video, it's like watching a show right off of a television network. keep up with the good job and make more stories like this so people can understand how lucky they are.
Really appreciative of your work. I begin to be aware of Vietnamese workers in Taiwan few years ago, and their stories were attractive to me. Few years latter I got a chance of working in Vietnam and have some contact with the Vietnamese from different background. There are still many to discover. Your video is touching! I really find those living abroad with strong wills, adapting themselves in a difficult life for cuốc sống. Thanks Kyle showing beautiful stories.
Besides, your video shooting skills do inspired me somehow. Thanks !
These videos need to be on PBS or Natgeo. Obviously I'm not Vietnamese, but I am enjoying them on a human level. Great job Kyle.
i enjoyed your eating and travelling videos in vietnam but the new videos u put out are even more powerful and personal.. keep up the good work man :)
As much as I like food and traveling, I've done hundreds of videos of them already. They might get more views, but artistically, I wanted to make videos that challenged me more and tell stories. These types of videos are way more time consuming and expensive to produce, but I'm happy to share these stories. With that being said, there will still be food and traveling videos. I just want to mix it up. The same content gets stale over time.
Kyle Le Dot Net yes brother it's call evolving. always gotta progress! love the direction you're headed.
Beautiful job, Kyle... What a moving story. You are enlightening the world about the lives of people who have no voice.. I hope Duong finds some happiness in his future.
"As people, we need to be good and live thinking about others." What a wonderful attitude this man has. I wish him all the best in my motherland.
Another beautiful story of struggle of a stranger in a strange country and his survival.
Khawaja Ramzee who told you it s a strange country?
@@sashandiaye As in, it's a foreign country to the Vietnamese gentleman.
yea very beutiful he had too run away from a place he called home ..whats so beutiful about that ..
@@sashandiaye for a vietnamese person is an strange country man, most people don't even know this country exist or imagin where is located or whatever shit like that you know...
please it is not strange country
See how African respect foreigners, you know what really pissed me off when African go to abroad western world or Asia they treat us like nobody............
Humble Jagne We only hate criminals. Be good person first
Man its because blacks dont have racisim in their dna. They are friendly mostly with foreigners.
Humble Jagne plenty of successful Nigerians in my town.
African and Muslim make it even worst. This man landed in a black Muslim land and made it...amazing.
Tbh, the africans i have encountered in my area are rude and snooty 🤷🏽
He's the happiest saddest man in the world Kyle!! Wow just wow
Tloc103 I can understand how he feel. There no Vietnamese, or community so must b very lonely.
Michelle Basaites he must have been the happiest person to see a fellow Vietnamese. Must have felt surreal to meet kyle.
he's a living contradiction
He can always go back to his country or go to France as he planned. He seems to be a very sad man .
I think he suffers from depression. I am the same way.
wow this makes me feel so grateful and lucky to be surrounded by people i love. i couldnt imagine being in duongs position. what a strong man and a humble soul. i hope one day i can be as persistent and courageous as him.
Africans are the most friendliest and open minded people in the world. I wish every human had the heart of Africans. This would be a better place. I am from Ghana and I know why I say this. This man should be working in one of the big restaurants in Senegal. In Ghana we have many Chinese, Indians, lebonese, etc. We live peaceful with one another. Why can't the rest of the world do the same? I think he is happy. He just miss his family. I think he should go on vacation to Vietnam. That will make him happy. He miss home. There is nothing like the place you love. He is a survivor. I don't know how he survived not speaking the language and not knowing anyone. He is inspirational. God bless him and may his business grow to the point he become very very happy. He is not content. He wants more. I pray he gets everything he wants. He will always have a home in Senegal even if he choose to leave. Senegalese are very peaceful and quiet people. I visited there with a boyfriend that was from their. It's kind of boring compared to Ghana. I hope he visits Ghana one day. I don't think he would come back to Senegal. He would do better in Ghana.
Zarasha1 yeah you are super right! I guess because it’s an Islamic Country😬
Cool C shut up please.
Zarasha1 exactly Africans are the most friendly and open-minded and that's how they're descendants wound up being on the slave ships shipped all over the world
Zarasha1 what about the elephant in the room his African side chick
Cool C No we would of been use to being war like, and know how to be less trusting and friendly.
Thank you for helping tell Duong's story. Definitely one of my favorite videos that you have made so far 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
he got very emotional after seeing the first version and i got emotional seeing him emotional too. he was very happy with the results. i actually revised this documentary four times, which is unheard of, but I wanted to do it as best as I could with the time allowed.
I am senegalese and watching this video made me think about those foreigners out there trying to make a living in a hard environment they are not really used to. The video was kinda sad but i see hope. I wish i knew him so i could help him be more comfortable in Senegal. Fighting !!
Amina Niang You're SO sweet and SO kind! :-)
The downfall of Africans is being too kind.
There are lots of blacks/Africans in Vietnam and they get treated like everyone else.
He is only one that could make himself happy/comfortable not somebody's else. Beside, it looks like the beautiful juicy girl is giving him some pusss, LOL. What more could he ask? Senegal is a nice country. Some say he is stuck in Africa ( Senegal, for those who fail geography). Buying a ticket to Vietnam should be fairly affordable. I think he is struggling with his past. Few advice for him: Keep working hard ( he is just doing that), found a family or keep smashing that juicy girl. Just Enjoy Life!
Amina Niang, Maybe he will need some help, it's very kind of you to help him. Thanks
I burst into tears when seeing this. I feel proud of being Vietnamese. Every person on earth deserves love.
i noticed africans people nice and very friendly, are you agree that?
i think he received a lot of help form here people, i love them africans
van tam huynh thank you, yes we so friendly and acceptable all type people, no discrimination, everyone visit any country in Africa, will get great experience, senegal is my neo neighborhood country, I’m from Cape verd
Yes they are except the black in america. Lol
@@xiongnu6373 Well black America don't take no shit for anyone and we don't get the same treatment in China.
...also they know you're just a tourist lol I mean you don't blend in. Once you're back in Amerikkka you're just as brown as the rest of us here according to whites! Let me see you navigate corporate Amerikkka 😂 especially not speaking English.
@@xiongnu6373 you're full of it. You most likely approach or see blacks in america with that attitude, and that's why experience what you experience... You're getting back what you put out...
I enjoyed this video. It made me cry. Obviously he made it but he is lonely and wants to go back to Vietnam. It is hard to leave a place once you have established yourself. Despite his sadness and loneliness, he is a very strong and determine individual.
Damn righ
but he told, he wants to stay in senegal
he doesnt want to leave his daughter behind
That's so true
This story is so compelling, it's beautiful. I am so pleased to see how people struggle and fight to survive in life and to make the best out of any situation. Keep going my brother, may God be with you and bless you!
I’ve been watching this for over 30 times since you uploaded. Well done Kyle! Thanks for showing me how you mixed video and audio together (on facebook messenger). It’s been 2 years ago since I was working around with one of my first videos, WOW! Time flies! You recommended the Zoom H3 but I saved money and got the H5 btw. Give me heart when you read this.
U rite
Its nicely done
Never have a video touched my soul that much. Thank you Kyle Le, you are amazing :)
You're going to love this Viet kieu return story I'm currently filming right now. It won't be up for a while though.... but in the mean time, a lot more great content is coming your way.
Tralala T I agree so much. And here we are in complaining about our privileged lifestyles and the "work" we have to do to pay bills and eat at restaurants and watch movies .. gas for our cars... I do Not Know Yet what TRUE hard work is. I can only empathize. This film is immensely humbling. Thank you Kyle. It was amazing. I'm sitting on the edge of my seat awaiting the sequel. And to you Duong...thank you...thank you for inspiring me. You make me feel so much more grateful for everything I have and don't have in my life. But trust me, You have more happiness within you and around you than most of us roaming the US. I hope that you realize that within yourself because you deserve all the great things in life for the sacrifices you've made. Most especially You deserve to FEEL Happiness . Your hard labor over the years is very honorable. I am so grateful to have stumbled upon this video at the right time. I'm so inspired. Thank you again. ❤️
Kyle Le Dot Net Hello from Australia 😊 If you set up a GoFundMe account I would love to help contribute to this mans return visit home to Vietnam 🇻🇳 This story has touched my heart and I'm sure many others too.. Thanks for sharing Kyle!
Noodle 101 he doesnt need a GoFundMe, did you not watch the entire story? He said he's a made man, he has nothing to worry about even if he returns in Vietnam.
From what I can tell, he would love to go back home to Vietnam. But, he had suffered enough to get where he is right now. It would be a total was of efforts and sufferring if he choose to leave Senegal. He invested too much time, effort,sweat, and tears.
Ace Andersen are you paying attention? he said he can't leave behind the life he has built. but wants to return. he is in Senegal because he doesn't have the means to start all over again. he is lonely and sad and it's difficult.
Amazing to see this man going somewhere completely different from home, and even being tricked into it, and actually make something from himself. Truly a special story. Thank you for sharing this!
How do you get tricked into going to a certain country? Doesn't ticket show?
probably couldn't read it
@@NamuBang He was tricked, clearly he thought he was going to France I am Vietnamese BTW. You are one of those Blacks that think they are Asian and want to prance on everything getting super offender for us thinking you are MS. Know It All. Thanks but no thanks
and still, he was traumatized by the experience.
Thank you so much for sharing this amazing story. Greetings from SOUTH CENTRAL LOS ANGELES CA. USA 🇺🇸🇭🇳🇺🇸🇭🇳🇺🇸🇭🇳🇺🇸🇭🇳🇺🇸🇭🇳
This video show that the Senegalese people are very friendly, welcoming and fun to hang out. Make me want to visit there one day.
Mong anh Dương mãi mãi là tấm gương sáng làm việc chăm chỉ cho triệu triệu con em Việt Nam noi theo. Chúc anh và gia đình mạnh khỏe và hạnh phúc. Rất biết ơn Ad và ê kíp đã vất vả làm clip cho đồng bào khắp thế giới xem.
Tôi k giỏi tiếng anh, nên tôi cmt tiếng việt, xem xong video này của bạn, tôi thật sự thấy khâm phục chú này. Từ một người k có gì trong tay, k thể giao tiếp nơi đất khách quê người mà xây dựng được một cơ ngơi ntn.
Buồn kinh khủng, đó là cảm nhận của tôi.Với những gì tôi thấy, nỗi khổ cực của anh nó thấm đẫm trong từng cử chỉ ,không thể dấu nổi...Nhưng lạy trời ,cũng may cho anh còn sống sót qua những tháng ngày cực nhọc cùng cực...
Bạn nói đúng mỗi lần xem video này má muốn khóc lun, thật tới từng cử chỉ lời nói
Tôi đã khóc khi thấy sự nghẹn ngào trong ánh mắt của 1 người chấp nhận sống gian khổ, khó khăn & nhọc nhằn khi phải rời xa quê hương của mình như anh !
The friendly locals keep him there!!! So nice to see all the hugs
I salute this Man. He is not only brave, he is brave and strong. Going to another Country and not speak a word of the local language, still managed to do so well is just BODACIOUS. I wish him well. God Bless Him.

This is an amazing video. I hope that he finds happiness in his heart and goes home to his family. Family is everything. Really loving your vietnamese stories abroad X
Kyle, your work has evolved into pieces for pure empathy. I would have never seen this astounding perspective if it weren't for you. We're all cheering you on, so please, keep on truckin'.
Amazing story....i can never imagine going through what he has gone through...he has a good heart and I hope the best for him 🙌
Oh, and I already filmed the Vietnamee man in Africa in VIETNAM!!! Yes, there's a follow up video! He'll make a return to my channel in a month or two - depending on edit time... Thanks guys
can't wait!!
Thanks for your works. I've just registered to get notification from your channel. Can't wait.
I'm so happy to hear that he gets to go back to Vietnam, and that we get to be a part of it. I hope he finds happiness regardless of where he is. Excellent video by the way. An amazing story well told. Subscribed in the first couple minutes. Looking forward to checking out the rest of your videos.
Kyle Le Dot Net your video makes it seem as though there are but a few Viets in Senegal. but in Dakar alone there are a couple hundred full and half Vietnamese, why don't you show them?
I don't know them? I cant just come up to them and start filming them? I never saw any other Vietnamese or Asian people while I was there. Maybe you can put me in touch with some?
His story tells me that you can be from one country but belong to another... it's all about learning to adapt wherever you are placed....love your story.
Nana Konadu Once you go black, you never go back. Black women are so beautiful!
Kyle, that is probably the best thing you have ever done. It was a wonderful story of human perseverance and soul ... thank you
+Peter Kelly thank you.
Kyle has done many GREAT things. Like giving and doing Charity at the orphanages and bringing awareness to them and so on...To say this is the best thing he has ever done is Outrageous. This was a great documentary. I know I'm taking it out of context, it's was intentional.
why dont youtube recommend these type of videos more often
outstanding piece...network quality.
All I can say is that, In this documentary, he never mentioned any form of discrimination or harassment. It's obvious black folks represent the race of humanity, the language of love... I'm not too sure what would've happened if it was the other way round!!! Black race = One love for humanity.
peter williams here in America, black African aren’t as friendly towards Asian. But yes Africans are nice and friendly people.
thuswt4u
You gotta understand the psychology of black people in America!!!
peter williams - they are also crooked and cheated him out of whole 100 egg rolls. Did not pay..
Tien 300!! Rollssss
peter williams yes.. Black folk who are not American!!
I think everyone is missing the point. Seems to me his survival is based on the acceptance of the people there. They seems very friendly and accepting. Afticans are in general. If the role is reversed we'll see huh! Give the host country some credit.
justsue Senegaleses are really friendly people
justsue Well said ❤️🌹. Senegalese are nice & generous 🙏🏽. As a Gambian I experience their kindness
There's hundreds of thousands of Africans living and working in China. The world is an accepting place for people who have good work ethics and well behaved, no matter where you go.
justsue i think he feel bad and see a way he can help and accepted his faith. He can return home anytime, but he's still there.
He is an inspiration!!! From nothing to something!!!!! He is such a phenomenal man!!! God bless him!!
Wow!!!! I've been to Africa East 2x...i understand him and his sacrifices all through those years..i understand why he can't leave it yet to come back to his mother land..that country he has endured so much that made him it close to his heart..the friendship there is warm.. but I really really respect him for trying to survive he said he was crawling from scratch to fortune.. Asians are hard working people..ill credit Vietnamese are hard working people. I also love your food.. surely your beautiful and friendly people ...love from Philippines and here in South Korea..!!!!
I'm gonna watch this everytime the Western world starts beating me down and making me depressed.
David Sanchez those are the worst countries to live
David Sanchez One has public beheadings and stoning, the other has the rape culture and a caste system. You sir, are a comedian 🤣. You must want him to have daily heart attacks.
I rather hang myself than live in these 2 countries !
@David Sanchez Stop tricking people and sending them to senegal instead of french xD
@David Sanchez I'd rather get nails hammered into my toes while I watch Amy Schumer "stand up"
One tough soul. I hope his relatives abroad connect with him to provide sponsorship. Stick with this type of production, at least a bit longer, it's captivating.
Jupe367 qc
mansinthe marc I don't see him leaving his daughter that's buried there alone either
I don't know, if that was the reason then he could unbury the grave and bring the remain home to Vietnam. Besides the mentally religion reason, I can only think of is his body has bled blood, tears and sweet too much in this new land country more than his motherland. He is really officially a member of this new country. Tough and emotional when has to decide what to do.
Great video! I love Vietnamese people. They are humble, hardworking, polite, friendly. My dad had a Vietnamese family working for him in his small business , and the mother would make us kids those rice paper spring rolls, the same ones this guy sells. They are incredible! One of the best things I ever tasted. We learned to make them in my family. You have to get the rice paper from an oriental market. I've never been able to find these in a restaurant, not even a Vietnamese restaurant. You either have to know someone who will make them for you, or learn how to make them yourself.
không chỉ là 1 câu chuyện mà còn là 1 niềm cảm hứng
Has anybody noticed how genuinely nice Africans are?!
Indeed
Yes! :-) Makes me happy. They make me happy with their love :-)
They look so kind
Which ones are nice, the ones that sold the ISRAELITES(Black Americans)into SLAVERY. Why the vietmanese in Africa the same reason CHRISTOPER COLUMBUS came to America. WAKE THE HELL UP!
Yah and it needs to stop, that's why people take advantage of us.
Mr. Dương's story has really touched my heart. May God bless him with everything he desires..
I’ve been look for real live documentaries like this for a long time! Keep up the great work! You did an amazing job telling his story! Love it
There's a lot more on this channel!
Hey Kyle,
As a Viet Kieu (from Australia) I found this very interesting and thought provoking. It sounds tragic when he says he was conned and somehow landed in West Africa since it was not his initial intention. But it seems he has made a decent living thru hard work and the kindness of locals. I also watched the sequel and I guess his heart now lies in Senegal. Another reminder how lucky I am to be privileged. Thanks for making these mini movies of Viet Kieus (other than ones living in Aus, Can, US...)
Truly respect his resilience, tenancy and hard. Great video- gave me perspectives and it’s so nice to see how kind the people of Africa are to a man completely of different cultures
This is a one of a kind video that I very much enjoy.
Imagine the pressure he has when he realized he needs to survive on his own. Thanks for reminding me to always be thankful and motivated.
Senegalese here ! Touched by your hard working spirit and happy that you could make it here ! Hope you get what is it your heart is longing for. Will come eat of your famous nems one of these days
Malick D.Z I am from Malaysia and I have met a few people from Senegal during Haj. I have a lot of respect for them. Strong willed, very dedicated and highly devoted.
@@ZabriZA Glad my fellow countrymate left a good impression. I been wanting to visit Malaysia for a while now, specially since Senegalese can visit visa free :')
Malick D.Z you are welcome to visit Malaysia. Visit the East Coast cities too. Very Islamic and friendly people. This is where I lives.
Fun fact: 2002 was my first World Cup and we were assigned countries in class to look up facts about. I got Senegal and figured they could be my team in the abscence of Vietnam, so my first World Cup game I saw live on TV was the win against France, seeing them make the quarter finals felt great and for some reason I almost cried when they lost on golden goals to Turkey in the quarters... I was a wimpy child. Even though I don't follow their exploits as much these days, Senegal are my boys, congrats. That's how I got to know the country Senegal. Senegal beating France(1998 World Cup champions) was like the greatest thing ever in 2002 World Cup. El hadji diouf made his career based on that game.
@@Khmerwarrior200 haha same here man these were the time I was so much invested into the team. I met even Korean people who knew Senegal just coz of that, it kinda put us on the map lol
Brilliant work Kyle! What a great story about Duong. Moving, well edited and filmed, and facinating. This should be entered at Canne or some short film festival. Brilliant, beautiful and refreshing. ty
I am aware that many countries are different within Africa and that Africa is a continent with diverse cultures. However, most people don't know where Senegal is or that it's even a country in Africa, I had to include Africa in the promotions and title simply for search-ability. Africa is just searched more commonly than Senegal. , I needed a title that is good for searches and to catch people's instant attention because of the effort, resources, and time it took me (by myself) to film and edit this. This was also the only video of Africa I ever made so far, so I wanted it to stand out. So I hope you guys understand my reasoning for titling it the way I did. I also put in parenthesis (Senegal) and even within the video, I gave a brief description of Senegal. Again, no disrespect to anyone or anything, but I titled it for strategic view purposes. WIthin the video I did mention that I was in Africa and it felt very surreal... well that was true.. it was my first time on the continent. It wasn't my way of over generalizing all the countries... it was just a statement about the first time I step foot on a new continent. I said the same thing about Europe when I went to Germany for the first time as it was the first time I went to Europe. Sorry if it offended anyone and I have titled it more appropriately. . For the follow up video please click here: th-cam.com/video/DEK90AxcVgg/w-d-xo.html
Great job kyle, i m form Senegal and Mali, and when i do video's i do the same thing!!
Welcome to Internet sensitive generation.
You did good, do not worry too much
You did great, no need to apologize. Good job.
Makes sense, no worries I completely understand where you are coming from.

Tôi chỉ phục chú ấy vì chú ấy nhận ra là ko tiến lên chỉ có chết đấy là quy luật tất yếu của con người. Tôi không bao giờ quy thành tích của 1 cá nhân lên hẳn cả 1 dân tộc cả. Chú ấy làm được ko phải chúng ta ai cũng làm đc. Dân tộc nào cũng vậy thôi.

Hi Kyle, Thank you very much for these documentaries you have made, I am proud of you as you are very proud to bring original content of these videos
Kyle Le , thank you for such wonderful story! I shared it on my fb and you have another subscriber. Good luck for your bright future!
He’s so sad inside 😭 he needs he’s daughter and wife whit him there
*Africa truly is a beautiful and potent continent.* TV paints a wrong picture. The only things bad are the historical and present exploitation of Africa by outsiders and the corruption of their own governments. These two things are the reasons why growth is hard. It makes African scholars leave Africa to go somewhere else because they also know future is close to impossible with high-placed people taking everything for themselves. For the continent itself, it's very rich in resources.
And they sold our ancestors to Europeans. Without that story, Africa would be up there with China now....
I've been doing a lot of research on Rwanda (because I plan on leaving the USA) and I found out that Rwanda pretty much has the most efficient and cleanest sewage system. Like who knew?
I might visit Rwanda to see what it's like there and maybe live there.
Great job Kyle. This is a rare documentary. One of your best videos uploaded. This man's will to live is phenomenal. I need to make my siblings watch this so they can understand how fortunate they are. Keep up the good work my man.
Wow... after watching this episode I am not gonna complaint about life anymore.
Couple of things.
1. This video has layers to it. Very deep. You have to watch it a few times to grasp all that is here.
2. The man is suffering from trauma. That is why he feels so empty despite finally having material things. He hates his job because he primitively knows he needs space to process but the work hours do not allow him the luxury.
He would be just as unhappy in Vietnam.
3. When he says he was happy making less, that is due to being in survival mode. When you are happy just to eat and have shelter your problems are simplified and your brain will not waste energy on emotional well being but the physical.
4. Props to this man. He has heart but there is always a price to pay for bravery.
Wow this deserves so much more views! Amazing kyle keep up the hard work
Humans are highly adaptable creatures. Thank you for the insight and I wish this Vitenamese man the best
17:24 he’s sad. He had tears in his eyes. He needs his family.
He can't go home because he got too used to the struggle there. I hope he can find happiness either in Senegal or by going back home some day. Bless this man

Hey Kyle, thanks for doing this video. Its one of your best vlogs so far in my opinion. Brought a lot of meaning to us watching this video on so many levels of spirit. Good to know Anh Duong Nem is doing well in Senegal. Hopefully, he will find inner peace in coming years. Dillon
How ignorant are those people thinking that Senegal is a shithole and are surprise to see a nice car there! This guy lives in a poor area of Dakar. Even in the popular neighborhoods, you'll find nice homes, nice cars and other nice things. Don't even get me started on areas like Almadies, Fann, Mermoz, Plateau, Hann Maristes, etc. which are very opulent. Travel more and you guys will discover that the majority of Senegalese people are not starving to death even though the country has work to do to be fully developed.
Minato more powerful homes than most in the US, even.
Meaning that Senegalese elites are has selfish and arrogant as any elite anywhere and do not mind living in opulence among high rates of inequity. It s very true that mankind, black or white, is the same everywhere. Edition - In a world of limited resources and a growing population some type of socialism (fair redistribution of resources) will have to be implemented or barbarism will be the world`s condition.
I can confirm. I stayed in over twenty houses/shacks/huts during my travels across West Africa.... and the nicest was in Dakar (four levels with gardens and servants). The wealth disparity there is huge.
African countries they are far different in terms of hospitality
I love his honesty and thank you sharing this unique story
My favorite video so far. Good job Kyle.
What a wonderful story! OMG, I cried.
wow- I really appreciate this video. when he said my life is in crawl stage, I get it, thanks for the new outlooks. wishing you all the best
Thank you for seeking out this man and sharing his story ! Just, wow. Really touched my heart
Such a beautiful soul, what a lovely spirit he has. May God bless him!
Thank you Kyle, Duong Nem and this video inspire me so much!
Nothing but pure respect for back breaking hard work.
Bless you brother. I know it takes a lot to commit to this work. You make your people proud. Love!
I love this man and dont even know him! I wish him all the best!
These people there seem reallly sweeet and welcoming! Such friendly people
Fam, what'a ur FB 😂👌🔥
I think he would love to have it all, but he can't if he went home.
Yeah
Mucho de Africa es el mismo
Wow, this is really inspiring. We Vietnamese can survive anywhere. I was really touched by his story.
Creepy Marshmellow I want to really be touch by you doe ;)
Creepy Marshmellow, pls say yes to khaki91 but change your image with your husband photo lol
Creepy Marshmellow Don't say we, because this man does not represent a whole country. Just because this man made it does not mean that you will make it too. Stop feeding your pride.
That's true 👍
Anh Dương ơi anh anh là người đàn ông đáng khâm phục, trải qua bao khổ sở mà anh vẫn vui cười lạc quan, chúc anh nhiều sức khoẻ, đi lại cản thận anh nhé, bây giờ còn trẻ anh hãy cố gắng để dành tiền, sau này về VN anh sẽ cảm thấy tốt hơn. Thank Kyle for giving me the chance to know more about Vietnamese people around the world, this is very heart touching for me.
