@AndrewPerpetua I think IP and copyright laws already address this. The thing is process. All these are private disputes subject to civil litigation which is quite costly and time-consuming to individual reporters. One of the solutions could be you guys form an association to sue them.
@CraigLo15187569 @MrNixn @DudespostingWs A Vietnamese word may use one of 6 potential tones but English doesn't express that. For "Dung", there could be:
Dung = Beauty (fairly popular girl's name)
Dùng = Use
Dủng = Meaningless
Dúng = meaningless
Dũng = Brave (common boy's name)
Dụng = Use or Useful
@miketatarski Yes I agree that this one doesn't have a formal category. It is often permitted as private family house. Totally lack the fire safety regulations
@miketatarski A Vietnamese economist living in Australia argues that in fact "mini apartment" in Vietnam resembles to Build-to-Rent in Western countries: https://t.co/UXtts4tyUM
@miketatarski To the end, I believe lack of rail infrastructure in Vietnam leads to aggressive behaviors of truck drivers. Freight rail only has 0.3% share of total cargo transported, which means that most goods are transported by road. This puts tremendous pressure on roads and truck drivers.
@miketatarski I’m not shocked by this. Many celebs in Vietnam are involved in gambling and accumulate huge debts. They then breach the contract to get the money and pay off their creditors, i.e. not delivering the car after receiving the payment. This is how the crime in question occurs.
@Anonyshinki@kamilkazani Yes that's vote by feet. In fact ruling class is rarely united, there are always cliques and factions. If public opinion shifts towards some faction, it may have upper hand in negotiation/coup. 1789 revolution happened because most of French were hungry
@Trinhnomics Hanoi conundrum in colder season: either you get a dry dusty day or a drizzly muddy day. Enjoy your trip.
P.S. Thanks for the photo. Suddenly I realise that there are more high-rise buildings in the Southwestern part of the city than in the downtown.
@duyngolaw As long as the defendant (or plaintiff) has no real prospect of success, the judge can decide to go on with the summary judge, which requires no hearing.
@duyngolaw I research English case law in my free time. They have a process called summary judgement. The requirement is pretty simple, and the judge has more freedom to interpret the situation.
@patrickbiegon3 @michaelxpettis@DavidNdii Totally agree. Investment in ports, infrastructure and some commodities for export is a sure way to boost ROI
@Dorian_23X @kamilkazani I don't know. We the laypeople often think famous ones know exactly what they are doing. But human is deeply emotional. I don't think every move has complex calculation behind it. Some actions are just sensible at the time
@miketatarski That account is pretty strange. If he was a Vietnamese ultranationalist who is proud about its economic development, then why does he have Chinese last name?
@michaelxpettis@HongshenZhu Vietnam's municipal governments also tries to boost personal pension (aiming at self-employed people) by subsidizing part of the payment. My father is a self-employed mechanic and I pay for his personal pension. The city subsidizes, like $1.50 per month😒
