Seems as if all the entrepreneurship in VN is tending to
the southern half, and the hard-arsed apparatchiki true believers are still mostly Northerners.

It has always been thus. In many ways the south/north dichotomy has mirrored our own. Southerners are socially more relaxed and the language differences are similar to ours. Northern speech is crisper and uses more consonants. Southerners slur their speech and omit consonants and some tones. Northerners are more puritanical all around same as northeasterners here. In matters of enterprise the dichotomy reverses the classic American differences. The southerners are more enterprising and open to business.
