Could Vietnam Become the Next Silicon Valley?
- bobby_9x 11y agoIt all sounds well and good, but Vietnam is really corrupt. I lived there for a few months a few years ago and people pay off the police for pretty much anything. It's also one of the only communist countries left in the world. There are soviet hammer/sickle posters up all over ho chi min city. The government can pretty much take over your business whenever they want (and they do). The media (TV/radio/newspapers) are completely state-controlled. All of these factors spells trouble for anyone with money. Why would I take such a risk?
