Well, first of all, you have gone way too far on analyzing my comment regarding your first paragraph. I was wrong about you because you're defending AQ, who lacks the knowledge about Democracy, Social structure & orders and technology. This guy never live in a Democratic country and study in a Democratic country. I'm not asking who you shouldn't or should defend. I know that is your choice. I'm just more surprised that you are defending his wrong about Democracy and how little he understand technology and his government, VCP. I never said you are naive. You are putting words in my mouth. I've always known you to be careful with your wordings. Your command of the English language is better than most people on PDF. It means you have a lot of patient which I can respect that.
"hen by all means you have the right to criticize or discuss issues wrt VN. But do it with proper data and intelligence, don’t just scream out slogans like “VN govt is destroying the country”, “VCP dont know how to rule” or outright lies like “VCP is controlled by CCP”"
Carlosa has his reason to criticize just like you and me and AQ. My criticisms are mostly based on fact and data as you have mentioned above. Although, you and AQ don't acknowledge it. And that's fine with me. Of course, I want Vietnam to be a much better place, who doesn't? My opinion is still valid regarding how VCP is operating very ineffectively and inefficiently and you know it. I've done many organizational work and I understand how companies are run. Not all are effective and efficient. I pointed out to you the reasons for that inefficiency and ineffectiveness. Not all datas are leaked into the public for someone like yourself to read. The best data I got is my own experience. You can't compare me to some articles you read online. We are all human beings, and the more people you're exposed to, then the more you understand them. You should have ask me and those Vietnamese why we said those things to VCP. But again, I'm not VCP nor are those people who criticize the VCP. In the end, all we can do is voice it out. It is up to the VCP to make that happen.
Why didn't the VCP realize it sooner? because they didn't know that China would turn their backs on them. Which open up their eyes and mind to USA. They know they cannot depend on the Russian alone because the Russian are in their own best interest, not VIETNAM.
He is usually careful with words and has a good analytical mind, but he is starting to lose his edge recently. His emotions get in the way of his mind.
I have political positions about Vietnam and others, but I don't get involved in Vietnamese politics because of some very practical reasons that I recently mentioned, but I do talk about corruption, that issue does boil my blood and as I said the other day, corruption is widely talked about in Vietnam by the press, the people and the government so nobody here has a right to try to curtail the issue. Nobody can give gag orders in PDF. The ones that try to close the discussion and prefer to ignore the issue are acting out of false pride and false nationalism. Self criticism is supposed to be a virtue..........
