A Vietnamese woman collecting discarded plastic, cardboard and metal pieces in her overloaded cart to recycle and earn her living in Vientiane, Laos. Talk about commitment, Vietnamese people will do anything to survive in the country.

You won't see Lao people pulling carts full of trash on the streets due to embarrassment, and also the pay is not great for the hard work.

Haha, I even see Vietnamese people doing that here in the United States. Quite the hard workers, they are. Lao people don't have half of their work ethic, that's why I see Vietnamese people making all the roads in Laos and doing hard labor. I've never seen a Lao person work that hard, to be honest. I'm not biased towards Lao people either, coming from that background myself.

Yo Mark....are you Vietnanese?

One woman's trash is another woman's treasure.

Nah I'm Lao

Laos people love to party . Vietnamese in the state own and run alots of business.

Why do Lao people party so much often? I bet 66.67% of businesses owned by Vietnamese do not report their earnings to the tax authorities.

Why would they pay taxes when officials will just pocket the money?

I think BeefCake meant Vietnamese owned businesses in the US of A.

Where I live it seems that they party every weekend.
Majority of the woman are divorce and has all sort of
stuff done to their face and boob job. They don't set a
very good example for the childrens. I stay away from em.
I work and go fishing that's bout it

Perhaps they want to attract black dudes because black dudes go crazy over Asians with boob job and big behind.

By picking up trash they are helping to keep Vientiane clean and at the same time making a couple of dollars. No shame in that.

Lao government and people should all be involved in trying to make the country clean. The recycling center, this woman is taking the trash to, is probably a private business where they sort, clean, reprocess and reproduce plastic bags and cups and utensils.

Lao women are some of the Asian women in the United States that are actually lowly enough to resort to attracting black men. Chinese and Japanese and especially Koreans will never be caught dead with a black dude. How does this look for the image of Lao people? Lao men in the USA acting like ghetto trash and Lao women getting knocked up by black men. Cambodian and hoodrat Vietnamese women in California also date black men.

Mark...I was just kidding on my previous statement ;D ;D ;D. I would think all types of men would go bonkers over Asian women with big melons.

I know you were kidding, but Lao and Khmer women really do date black men in the USA, while Chinese, Japanese and Korean tend not to. Anyway, most Asian men don't like oversized melons, they prefer perky and slim.

What type of black men? Rappers? Perhaps Chinese, Japnese and Korean women are much more educated to know not to hang around with these rapper type. 

The hood type of course. A lot of those girls grew up around gang life and in inner city areas.

Black Lives Matter? hahahaha.

It is ridiculous for any Lao people, or anyone in general, to be associated with thuggish lifestyle. Baggy pants, over-sized shirts, blings and souped-up Honda Civics are an eye sore to American society in my opinion. Good thing no Lao in Laos are following this lifestyle and thank God for the Lao government for not allowing it to occur.

I totally agree with ya on this. They think being black and thug is so cool. I feel so sad for them when they talk.
You would think that you want people to think highly of
ya.But no they act black and sound so stupid.

It's the same thing with Cambodians and some Vietnamese who live in inner-city USA, although I've never seen it from Thais, as they don't have refugees here and most are rather wealthy..

True I see Thai have more respect for themselves.

I agree with what you are saying,Thais do have more respect for their culture

Circle oneself with conservative blacks, hispanics and whiteys are the way to go in my opinion and experiences. I think I am the only 'true' conservative of my type in my country.

I meant circling.....

I agree with ya SAtan.

What country are you from Satan? I'm guessing you're asian the way you type

what do you mean the way I type? Ba Dac is vietnamese?

No, he's Lao I believe. Your grammar and style of typing resembles an Asian person..

You can tell by that? You must be a screen playwriter or something like that?

No, I just type on forums a lot and I've seen the different ways people type. Eventually you notice patterns..

my grammar bad cause I'm lazy. go figure public education.

There is nothing wrong with public education but one can enhances oneself by analyzing the environment, segregate the negativity from positivity and then try to alleviate the negativity by putting in extra time and effort to do so.....

Public education is not good in your city?

Public education won't be good anywhere in America when they implement the common core curriculum  ;D

I educate my own self and I do not rely on the community.

lazy black n white people.I can't complaint so I ended up
just like em. I'm just here for a paycheck

I am asking because there are so many children going to USA for high school education, some of them can not be adapted to the local ones. Dont know why they go if they end up in public school or public education.

Perhaps Mr. Trump can trump up new public education :applause

Peter you Chinaman?

In about 10 years that Vietnamese woman will be richer than anyone of us and all her kids will have higher education and we all be working for her.

I have nothing but respect for the Vietnamese people. They
work hard and they demand their childrens a lot from their childrens in school. All my Lao Peeps know how to do is party

You meant Lao people like to have fun?

they tend to overkill bro

Vietnamese women riding their bicycles in search of customers on the streets of Vientiane to cut their nails or give a massage.

They charge around 40,000 kip ($5 USD) to cut your hand and feet nails, and around 20,000 kip ($2.5 USD) to give you a neck and shoulder massage on the streets.

The Vietnamese were not born in Laos and they need to do something to survive, and this is one way of making money. They can speak and understand some Lao language.
