Hello @nuoctuong
Thank you for coming here
I can understand your reply is a confidence.
And I want to say with you that I hope that war does not happen.
If the war does not happen, our country will probably be like South Korea and North Korea now. But like that, I still feel better than it happened. The lives of many people and the whole nation go the communist path instead of only half is a price too high.
If you care about the state of the country and find out the current situation. You will find that have good things are in Vietnam, but it comes with the rules of development rather than are impacted by humans. The rest, you will see a more black picture: human rights, the environment, security, sovereignty, culture etc. etc. are almost not beautiful.
Of course, I know there are many people, many organizations are doing everything to make VN better, more nice. For me, I write this article to influence the thinking of Vietnamese people in the country, improving thinking is the way I choose. Hopefully I can do something albeit small.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
The War happened. We can't really do anything about it anymore. I guess it's our job now is to make a better place for all of our children and our children's children, right?
I am glad you're providing a discussion point. :)
You are great
the necessity is to act for future generations.
Each person will have a different way to do it.
Technology and the internet have made many countries change, I think it will also make Vietnam change. Especially public awareness.
I am interested in a paragraph by Tan Da. Please do not translate it.
Thus, changing people's perceptions is something I and many have chosen. And you @nuoctuong, what was you choose?
I do what I can on my part.
I try to teach my children the same. We did this fund raising activity for Christmas of this year to help raise funds for the unfortunate orphans affected by the War: https://www.facebook.com/phongbui/videos/10155970091803383/
(It's a facebook post, I hope it's okay).
This was great, I watched the video and the comments. I see the photos, maybe some of the victims of the diseases, not of war. But that does not matter, all are pitifully the same.
I hope you will succeed, and the problem with Mr.. Mark. Truth, I started to dislike him.
The diseases are highly correlated to the materials left after the war, mainly agent orange. The children, whose life expectancy are often short, are inflicted with neurological and physical deformities linked to that chemical. At some point, the United States military/government has to be held accountable. They haven't admitted it and therefore haven't put money into retribution for anyone. I am not holding my breathe that any politician will do so...
