Every time the ball went out of play and landed beyond the concrete low wall, bro will simply jump over the wall to pick it up. I tot I could do the same the next time the ball went over the wall, however, I really underestimate myself, the final result was twisted ankle and my 'balls' almost got smash on the wall when I attempt to vault over.

So bro, I can cheer you guys but count me out of the game

i believe my involvement in this would be a short one.
i think my case is not so much of love, but sympathy.
i mistook her as a call gal (KTV gal) when she was first introduce to me.
later than i realise she works in a factory. i neglected her feeling becos i thought she was one of those KTV gal. that makes me feel regretted for what
i did to her on the first day we met. aiya, long story lah, that's why am
planning to fly back to fix a young gal broken heart. i think it's no good to
hurt a young gal's heart. they hv feeling too.

Welcome to the Viet scene.

Just remember that VBs are very good at KC games. Granted she may be a factory gal, we should still be wary of the patterns she may throw out later...like father sick, mother gives birth, grand-mother marying...kind of stuff. Bottomline is of course, $. Armed ourselves with defensive shileds should such patterns come out.

Not that your gal is such, but it is good o be prepared and not be caught off-guard.

Hospitals make patients sick
===============================================

VietNamNet Bridge – Going to a hospital for treatment is a normal activity, but patients find they are infected with new diseases at hospitals. Even visitors may become ill, thanks to bacterial contamination.

Le Thi Hang of Ninh Binh went to the hospital to take care of her husband, a builder who suffered a severe injury after he felt from scaffolding. During his treatment, doctors performed minor procedures to help the patient urinate. After 3-4 days, the patient recovered from his injuries but some new, abnormal signs appeared: sharp pain while urinating and blood in his urine. Besides curing his injuries, doctors also had to treat him for cystitis.

“Such phenomena are called bacterial contamination in hospitals. Patients go to hospitals to cure a disease, but during the treatment process, they get a new disease. Bacterial contamination is very popular and has become a worry for hospitals at present because it pulls the treatment quality down,” explained Nguyen Viet Hung, Chief of the Anti-Bacterial Contamination Ward at Bach Mai Hospital in Hanoi.

In the case of Hang’s husband, health workers failed to follow antiseptic procedures when they put in a catheter. “In more serious case, the patient can catch nephritis from bacterial contamination,” Hung admitted.

At Bach Mai Hospital, one of the largest hospitals in Vietnam, bacterial contamination occurs often. Some patients got pneumonia after they used a respiratory machine because the machine was not decontaminated properly.

“Around 20 percent of the patients who use respiratory machines get pneumonia because of bacterial contamination,” Hung added. “Some patients don’t die of their initial diseases but from the new ones caught from the treatment process that are not discovered and cured in time.”

Not only patients can catch diseases in hospitals. Caregivers are also at risk.

Nguyen Le Thu’s daughter was hospitalized at the Central Tropical Disease Hospital to treat A/H1N1 flu. Thu went to the hospital to take care of the child. Before the child recovered, the mother became a flu patient.

“They call it an isolation area, but it is no different than other sections. The only “isolation” is that everyone is wearing a mask,” Thu revealed.

Doctor Nguyen Hong Ha, Deputy Director of the Central Tropical Diseases Hospital, acknowledged that “Quarantined areas at Vietnamese hospitals don’t meet standards.”

At Bach Mai hospital, the average percentage of patients who catch new diseases is 5.7-6.8 percent, but the rate is up to 40 percent on some wards.

“If patients are infected with new diseases in hospitals, the treatment process will be prolonged by one week on average, while expenditures for treatment will double,” Hung said.

If Bach Mai Hospital receives 300,000 inpatients, with the average percentage of patients who catch new diseases of 5.7-6.8 percent, at least 15,000 patients will need further treatment, totaling an additional of 105,000 days of treatment and 7.5 billion dong of additional hospital fees.

“The patients have to pay more and stay longer in hospitals that are overloaded,” Hung analysed.

Pham Duc Muc, Vice-Head of the Ministry of Health’s Examination and Treatment Department, confirmed: “Bacterial contamination at hospitals increases side-effects, fatality rates, length of treatment, increased use of antibiotics and decline in treatment quality and prestige of hospitals.

“When health workers put equipment into the patient bodies, if their hands are not sterilized, bacterial contamination will occur and vice versa,” Hung noted.

At hospitals, health workers rely on sterilized equipment by steam or driers. Keeping their hands clean is the most simple and economic way to prevent bacterial contamination. But most hospital staff, including health workers, don’t have the habit of washing their hands.

According to Bach Mai Hospital, in 2003 only 13 percent of health workers obeyed the hand-washing rules. The rate is 17 percent in 2007 and 47 percent in 2009.

When performing operations, health workers often don’t decontaminate the patients’ bodies properly, causing an increased risk of incision infections.

The average of bacterial contaminations at Vietnamese hospitals is around 5.8 percent.

your points are noted.

VN imports 1.6m computers in 2009
================================================== ===

VietNamNet Bridge - The country last year imported an estimated 1.6 million computers of all kinds, up 35 per cent over the previous year, according to marketing director of Intel Viet Nam Pham An Duong.

Duong said that computer prices last year were about 10 per cent lower than those in 2008, meaning PCs and laptops cost roughly US$350 and $620 per unit on average.

Domestic demand for high-speed microprocessors kept rising. Core microprocessors, for example, accounted for 29 per cent of Intel’s total microprocessors sold last year. The figure for AMD’s Athlon II X2 was 50 per cent.

Duong expected that Intel’s Core would increase its market share to 40 per cent this year thanks to the recent introduction of Core i3, Core i5 and Core i7 products.

Currently, Intel holds about 92 per cent of the country’s total microprocessor market share. The remainder belongs to AMD, according to Duong.

Local customers are also tending to pay more for their PCs with LCD screens. According to GfK Viet Nam’s statistics, the country in the first 11 months of the year imported nearly 716,000 LCD screens for PCs worth VND2.4 trillion, of which 19-inch screens made up 45.7 per cent.

Accounting for 45 per cent of the country’s LCD screen total sales, HCM City was the largest market for the product last year. Ha Noi followed with 35 per cent.

Duong estimated that laptops accounted for roughly 34 per cent of total computers sold last year, totalling roughly VND6.3 trillion ($350 million), up 28 per cent over 2008.

Retailers said that 14-inch laptops were best-sellers thanks to their reasonable prices.

GfK’s statistics also reported that 14-15 inch laptops accounted for roughly 76 per cent of total laptops sold in the second half of last year.

Despite the improvement in speeds, screens and prices, sales of netbooks last year remained insignificant as the product has remained unpopular with local consumers.

Thieu Phuong Nam, business director of Intel Viet Nam and Indochina, forecast construction that Viet Nam’s computer market in 2010 would increase 20-25 per cent over last year, adding that the domestic market had high potential as the growth rates of all kinds of computers in the market ranked second behind Indonesia in the Asia-Pacific region.

Real estate top investment for Viet Kieu
===============================================

VietNamNet Bridge – A survey on Viet Kieu (overseas Vietnamese) investment at a conference on establishing the Overseas Vietnamese Businesses’ Association revealed that most wish to invest in real estate.

Secretary General of the Overseas Vietnamese Businesses’ Association Pham Thieu Hoa stated that the main Viet Kieu investment areas in the next few years will still be real estate, tourism and technology transfer.

The Viet Kieu Village project in Hai Phong, underwritten by Viet Kieu investors in the UK, received a license on January 10, 2010. The project for an international hospital with 300 beds was also licensed on the same day.

According to Hoang Van Ke, Deputy Chairman of Hai Phong People’s Committee, Hai Phong has 20 Viet Kieu projects. These include a garment factory employing 4,000 workers by Pham Minh Nam, a Viet Kieu in the UK, and a villa complex capitalized at 20 million dollar by a Viet Kieu in Germany.

Viet Kieu projects in Hai Phong have been carried out mostly via relatives in Vietnam. According to the Hai Phong Branch of the State Bank of Vietnam, Hai Phong has received some $500 million worth of “kieu hoi” (overseas remittances) in the last five years.

Overseas remittances have been stable at $150 million per annum since 2008.

A portion of the kieu hoi has been injected into investment projects, though there has been no survey that clarifies the exact percentage.

Hai Phong has attracted some three billion dollars worth of foreign direct investment (FDI), including $70 million in investments from Viet Kieu. Many projects are well known in Hai Phong thanks to their high efficiency, such as the $30 million Vietnam-Australia Steel project and Thien Vinh footwear project invested by a Viet Kieu in Japan.

Le Truong Son, Member of the Executive Board of the Overseas Vietnamese Businesses Association in Russia, noted that a lot of Vietnamese businesses in Russia have returned to Vietnam to invest. They have become the main shareholders in some Vietnam’s large banks such as Techcombank, VIB Bank, or big trade centres such as Melinh Plaza, Furama Hotel, and Eurowindow.

Son said that Viet Kieu investment will increase if they can receive updated information about investment incentives and projects calling for investment.

Pham Van Thanh, Chairman of the Vietnamese Entrepreneurs in Canada, observed that much of the kieu hoi sent from the US, Canada and Australia to relatives in Vietnam cannot find investment opportunities.

Thanh warned that kieu hoi will reduce in 10-20 years, when there are no more people who have close relatives in Vietnam. Their children, grandchildren and next generations will not have money to send to Vietnamese relatives like their parents or grandparents do.

Thanh said that there are not many “millionaire Viet Kieu,” but there are numerous Viet Kieu who have assets of $500,000 dollar to one million. They want to purchase houses to live in Vietnam or to set up small businesses, but they are still reluctant to make the investment.

I beg to differ.

VBs are terrible at KC games. Otherwise they won't use stupid excuses like father sick, mother sick.

I remember 1 VB telling me she wanted something small from me just so that when she sees it, she'll remember me... she wanted N95

Then another one blatantly told me that she loves me so much... and more if I bought her a gold necklace?

Sorry, this is downright stupidity.

Thai babes and PRC chicks on the other hand...

You have a point, seeing this from the other end of the spectrum....

VBs approach is very direct...agree. But once kena KC-ed, some bros will willingly part with their $, however radiculous the reason may be.
