"Thank you for your attention to this matter" is a phrase stolen from fifth-rate middle-management corporate power wannabes. We are not his employees and do not work for him. I'd believe him more if he ended his endless emails with "...and always remember. Fuck You".

I hate this. I hated that the rise in private car ownership was messing up the flow of Vietnam scooter traffic. Now it'll just be worse. I hope Vinfast is able to succeed, and VN residents buy electric scooters and cars made by their own citizens.

At least VN just got its first subway.

In other words Vietnamese will not pay extra for US cars but US citizens will pay extra for EVERYTHING that comes from Vietnam. LOL
