Vietnam is different. The poor people are VERY poor. the middle income people are poor. Expats do not see the really poor side because their pay is at least 20x more than the average Vietnamese.don't you know it is US dollars? it can't be used in domestic. actually, i just don't believe there are people starve in china now, it is so easy to make money, there are lots of job. even beggar won't starve.
