    The Ugly Vietnamese

    Nice article. Sadly it's true to several cases. There are always some idiots going around destroying image of their own people, for their own selfishness. Don't let that make you think they can represent the whole VNese population.

    History of Vietnam or What do you want to know about Vietnam?

    You missed "a potential threat". Otherwise China would have let VN had its way with the whole Indochina region.

    As possibility of third world war exists, China needs to be prepared

    I know, but the number should be around 1,000 at most. Even by that China still has to expand the arsenal 5 times to match your 5,000 number.

    As possibility of third world war exists, China needs to be prepared

    There are estimatedly 16,000 nuke around the world with Russia and US own 15,000 in total. Both countries have plans to cut the number down and those who owns nuke do not plan to expand their asenal. China, which is caculated to own 250 nukes, now want to expand their armory by 20 times? Are you...

    History of Vietnam or What do you want to know about Vietnam?

    Nah, it was never about resistance and freedom, but rather about independence. Promises and agreement was made by VNese kings and officals, who often got executed or fled first when the fight started. Those who led the resistance forces was often nobles or even peasants who got fed up with...

    History of Vietnam or What do you want to know about Vietnam?

    I believe NiceGuy and EastSea are both right wing VNese, maybe have some police/ military/ VCP backgrounds. They might be extreme sometimes, but most of us aren't. There is dichoi who is pretty normal. Rechoice is also a bit extreme.

    History of Vietnam or What do you want to know about Vietnam?

    Don't know where you get that impression, but I can assure you you are wrong. I know @NiceGuy makes some ridiculous statements sometimes but he couldn't have gave you that impression. As a netizen you shouldn't listen too much govt propaganda.

    Okinawa independence movement seeks inspiration from Scotland

    I doubt it, my friend. Up until Tang Dynasty, China was always the major power of Asia, with no countries dared to challange it. Peace at that time was established on the ground that there was only a absolute power, and every other nations were at the mercy of that nation. Now China is...

    As possibility of third world war exists, China needs to be prepared

    Then why is China so eager to expand its navy, and why does Russia want to restore its Pacific fleet ? I heard that China plans to deploy dozen of aircraft cariers by 2020. Until space can become the battlefield, the sea is still the playground for superpowers. BTW I have already prepare for...

    History of Vietnam or What do you want to know about Vietnam?

    My ancestors were Chinese (the family tree has the name 韓信 on it, just really really far away), defeated and fled to VN a really long time ago. Even my family name is Chinese-like. I am a Northerner, BTW. Just the same as your ancestors, mine merged into VN and my standing is VN.

    History of Vietnam or What do you want to know about Vietnam?

    History is written by the victor. History is written for the victor. As I am on the side of the defeated, I don't and can't believe in Chinese record. Sorry. Too bad VNese don't share the same belief as you do. If you ask a random VNese who they think is their most ancient ancestor, they will...

    History of Vietnam or What do you want to know about Vietnam?

    According to our legend, Trung sisters and their royal guards committed suicide by jumping into Hat river. And your last part is kind of messed up I can't understand it. Too bad the British then the American took the chance to spread English all around the world first. Chinese is more of an...

    History of Vietnam or What do you want to know about Vietnam?

    That's for you a Chinese, grew up and studied decades in a Chinese speaking community to say. Still, there is nothing wrong to be proud of your mother tongue. I respect that. Chinese writing focuses more on the meaning, but latin is more versatile. Many languages use latin for writing, yet they...

    History of Vietnam or What do you want to know about Vietnam?

    Dude, the sole purpose of any writing system is recording, whether it is dialogues, stories or histories. Don't twist it for any propaganda purpose, like unity or political purpose. I believe each language and writing system has its own strong points. That's why people keep using them. Those...

    History of Vietnam or What do you want to know about Vietnam?

    "Quốc ngữ", or VNese latin writing was created by a French Christian priest to match the oral language of VNese people. It focuses on recording the vocal of the language, rather than the meaning of words (while both Chinese and English focus more on the meaning of words, less on the vocal). Also...

    History of Vietnam or What do you want to know about Vietnam?

    Because Chinese was also the language of another master, who failed to protect VN from the West. It was never the traditional language of our ancestor, as it was only used by the few elite and governers. Also like I said the leaders at that time (1940s) needed a new writing system for their...

    Okinawa independent candidate vows to invite Chinese troops stationed in Okinawa

    You are absolutely right. If someone wants independence, they must be ready to fight for it, bleed for it and die for it. Look at the Ukraine crisis. The seperatists are kicking Unkraine troops butt.

    History of Vietnam or What do you want to know about Vietnam?

    I have been always wondering if there is actually some kind of weight system for sumo warriors, you know like boxing? Cause I see sometimes competitors are about the same weight, sometimes competitors are totally different. Like this I know it's just for fun but are there actually any kinds of...
