Vietnam is a strange mix of capitalism and communism. On one hand you have the propaganda and the soldier uniforms on the other high end malls selling the latest designer item. Yesterday saw a man driving a beautiful white Mercedes sports car. A couple of days back there was a large Rolls Royce dealership at the side of the road. The mall I visited yesterday was filled with young kids, young adults wearing the latest fashions. As they walked the mall, smiling and showing off you could tell how proud they were. No Mao suites or stiff uncomfortable looking uniforms worn by these kids.
Wonder what Ho Chi Min, Marx, Lenin and Mao would think of Vietnam’s, current consumer based economic system and culture.
