Welcome to Viet Nam, Mr. President.

Please bring back the one-year visa, for Americans, which vanished about two years ago.

Thank you

I was in RVN in 1967 and 1968 as part of LBJ’s
expeditionary force. (Army Signal Corps.) (or
“Corpse” as Jerkwad would say...)

Today, my coffee table and dining room table
were both made in Vietnam. They are very
well built. (We used to make furniture here
in North Carolina not so many years ago...)

Go and Wonder.

Interesting... The Commie lives is a “Palace,” while the American President’s home and office is called simply a “house.”

A VERY nice and secure and well-equipped house, of
course; but we still prefer to call it a “house.”

One of many mysteries.

I’d love to be a fly on a wall for this as I’m a technical manager for a couple offices of software developers in TP Da Nang and TP HCM for a European IT outsourcing group. I see that right now with so many companies used to doing 100% remote for IT workers and American salaries/costs so much higher that the push to do more outsourcing here for America is going to get strong.

“Highlighting Vietnam’s growing importance as a “friendshoring” destination for U.S. technology companies, on Monday, executives from Google, Intel, Amkor, Marvell, GlobalFoundries and Boeing are expected to meet Vietnamese tech executives and U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken in Hanoi.”

If you want to stay in Viet Nam long-term I don’t see a good way to do it unless you marry a Vietnamese person and then you can get a TRC every 3 years. My son, just 1 year old, has it easiest as he’s got both USA and Vietnam passports.

BTW, anyone who is wondering how the Vietnamese feel about the Vietnam War -— it’s about the same way that Americans feel about the War of 1812. Yes it was awful that the British burned Washington DC in 1814. But most Americans have moved on to other issues and all of the recent threads on this forum that deal with other topics besides the 1814 burning of Washington DC will help remind you of this. Same with the Vietnamese.
