Vietnamese law does not prohibit filming there, but gangsters do not think so. They protect the girls and their identities. If you film like that, the girls will be tracked and arrested by the police for prostitution. The law does not prohibit it, but if you can play, then play.
Stop trying to defend him…he is basically acting dumb, pretending to think it’s common to film there. He didn’t find the alleyways of japantown by accident. He knew exactly where he was and that you shouldn’t film there.
I know that fake pretending act was so weak. I never even heard of him until the video, but I live here in Vietnam so it popped up because MOST PEOPLE have a good experience so I thought how could it go wrong? But then when I heard him speak It made sense.
@@AlmightyTreeDragon He was talking about girls in white dresses before the first girl told him no filming. He continued filming and another guy told him no filming. Still continued filming when told a third time by another lady who then threatened to hit him. Those are the facts. Then he leaves and asks a security guard if it's illegal to film there. Like he's clueless. I guarantee he wouldn't walk through the hoods of America and just start filming their street activities without permission. And then go ask a cop if it's illegal to film there.
Well explained. We should always respect the people, locals, traditions and cultures when in a foreign country. I was in Vietnam in May this year and absolutely loved the country. We had an awesome tour guide who kept us well informed on the do's and don'ts.
these locals are not even respecting their culture. they are working in degeneracy. vietnam is a traditional country. for god sakes if you are gonna do it, do it in a private area and not out on the street. china mac had every right to film out on the public street.
Some of the videos, China Mac feels like he has rights like the states. Expect him to be smarter than that. Dont be like other expats china mac and give us asian a bad rep.
China Mac is basically a white american, he was born in USA, never even lived in China so he is pretty much acting like a spoiled american brat. Mac is in hiding or should be traveling to another country until his lease ends, he did that to himself with that American-raised attitude. He doesn't understand the gang life there, everything is structured and to be a gangster you have to know how to act accordingly in Vietnam not like China Mac and New York where anyone can claim to be a gangster and go do dumb stuff with no validation, intelligence, and financial backing like a lost kid. Gangsters in Vietnam have soldiers everywhere and businesses everywhere and are very respectful, but nothing to play around with. Born in Vietnam and left their teen age and lived in the hood here in USA, big disconnect what gangster is supposed to be. Remember these people grew up in the real war so don't bring that tough mentality shit, don't work over there.

Unfortunately, I think now more RUclipsrs may try this and get themselves hurt. I hope this doesn't happen. This was a good video, Darren.
You are 100% correct: It's common sense, Always respect the Locals, and never get into disputes in a Foreign Country. - I also think China Mac's involvement with Lucy & Henry is also not worth it.

@Darren Walking By) You should Contact China Mac, Introduce him to the Vietnam Culture with Safe Travels etc... I'm a subscriber chnamac and enjoy watching videos Vietnam markets, food etc.. #PeaceFromNewZealand.
As an American and fan of China Mac, I was surprised he responded like that. I do not know if he was playing for the camera. But, he is smart enough to know that he is not at home and is a foreigner in Vietnam. China Mac is street smart /savvy enough to know that those type of underground places are well connected. I am glad that it did not escalate more than what it did and that everyone is safe. But it is almost common sense. I was yelling at the screen please just walk away put the camera down and walk away. Had he hit that woman, he would have not made it back home alive. I was at home in Seattle at a party near the china town area. This was years ago. I am from the Seattle area. But I was in a neighborhood with friends as a guest. AND I am not Asian. I had my phone out recording the people at the party, the dj, some of my friends smoking ect. There was a group of guys that did not knw me and possibly did not like me. I must have had my phone in there direction at one time by accident. One came up to me and asked who I was and who I knew. another did not say anything and put his gun to my lower right side of my waist. Luckily my friends and the home owners saw it and diffused it immediately and told the guys I was cool, but the home owner asked me to put the phn away and it never came back out that night. I STILL have the footage. That was in my city. But I respected the house rules and it was not on my block. I would later find out the guys were dealers and alot of activity was happening at that party I was not aware of. It is not our rights or rules in someone else's home. Travelers must respect the laws, culture, and rules that are in place by those that live there. I agree with EVERYTHING that you said. Great clarification.
China Mac has Mako poisoning. Look at all the videos he has praising Vietnam and saying how safe it was and how nice everyone is. Even saying your personal belongings are safer in Vietnam than in America. He doesn’t even see it himself but his mind is clouded. Maybe he will make up sooner or later.
He did it for content, he knows what he's doing. He knows it'll get him views. What he's too shortsighted to see is it will put him on a shirt. One he won't be able to profit off of
China mac is a 42 year old man 👴🏻. He has no hair. He is NOT a youngster. He should know this. No one needs to take him by the hand to show him proper etiquette on the streets.
This youtuber trying to get clout… i’ve been to vietnam there’s no mafia out there that’s all bullcrap.. there’s a lot of Americans, Australians, europeans that own many businesses out there… they don’t care about china mac recording video, actually its good cause it brings more tourists. Owners only care about is making money.. again MONEY .. this guy talking nonsense… those girls don’t have culture the reason why they get mad is because the real vietnam culture people will not hire them in a real legitimate job
Its not a debate, they don't need to explain and debate with him. Besides how are they going to explain stuff if they don't speak English? If they don't want to be filmed don't film. Simple as that. Especially if its prostitutes who don't want their faces all over RUclips. Its not that difficult to understand.
Go watch the video again. That shit went on for a very long time. Not only did he not stop filming, mr tough guy wanted to pick a fight with a little girl. They literally can be his kids. But of course his gangster ass gotta be a tough guy
If he were a regular run of the mill clueless person from a sheltered environment who has zero street savvy I would take Mac's side but that's the thing, he is far from that. That's the reason why the people reacted so harshly and quickly. The way he looks and moves puts him in a different category. He knows how these things go - if you're a real G (like he raps about) you easily get a sense of where you're at, and it doesn't even matter if you're a different color in a completely different environment. And people living on that edge of the street know you right back. He knew what he was doing and he took a big risk doing it just for clicks.
China Mac knows what he's doing and what goes on there. He grew up in the hood. Even Henry knows not to get a Happy Ending😂. But I do agree with you when you said he needs to respect the locals.
100% agree with everything you said except the part where you keep trying to defend him about the girls acting all crazy. The women had every right to go crazy after telling him off multiple times to stop filming and what dose china mac do? Keeps filming even tries to start shit almost for content obviously
I watch China Mac's videos but he can really display that American arrogance sometimes. When he was talking to Sky, he told her that Vietnam should change its ways if they want to attract more foreigners. That is a ridiculous thing to say and really shows his arrogance and immaturity. Also, painting the wall of his apartment was really stupid. Rather than trying to understand the full picture, he instead makes more videos defending himself. I don't know if he's really that dumb or if he's just trying to do it for content but either way it's distasteful behavior.
The laws the law man. People can film in public. Forget about people’s feelings. You can’t make everyone happy. But I have rights. And no one is going to violate them without repercussions by me or police. Sounds like you have fear in you.if you’re scared stay home lol.
I'm an American black man, and I never traveled overseas and know not to film in places I know nothing about unless I have the permission. great video bro!
@@howietran5723 so police and government quietly allow the red lights business to thrive. Lol. That is unspeakably legal. Too funny Some dudes said vietnam has “very conservative culture “. LOL. Falling out of my chair from laughing 😂 Vietnam is no different from Thailand and Philippine. They are same origin, same people, and same thinking, same culture. So it makes sense that they have same kind of red light business. 👩💼
China Mac knew exactly why he couldn’t film he was playing dumb for content… fist minute in the video I knew it was sucky sucky $5 dollar love ❤️ you long time area lol 😂
There was a guy following China 🇨🇳 Mac the whole time, I don’t know if he noticed as soon as he got out of there another guy came up to the other guy, MAC need to be aware
There are no signs in the certain neighborhoods in the USA to not where BLUE or not wear RED....that is why you have to be street smart..obiviously Mr. Mac is not, for HCMC at least, peace.
We need to be mindful of being in other countries and respect their wishes and culture. I know foreigners come to the states and do stuff we don’t approve but there’s a way to go about it
Darren I don’t completely agrees with what u all saying regardless of there a camera or not lawfully it’s not illegal to film there …so it’s completely legal he could of easily took it to the authorities and said he got assaulted if she swang at him. And he didn’t even film the girls …the camera on him minding his own business…not on them …until they call him out aggressively from no where then he reacted back…I respect people culture but when u chose that profession it’s all on you no one force that job on you……I felt if the girls went about more nicely it be a better approach.
@@wadi5145 he's a American Asian? that don't mean nothing to me genius, Americans no matter what race they doing the most chaos things in these countries, so they need to behave, so what are you talking about?
his behavior reminds me of another influencer in the name of johnny somali who got arrested in japan over provocative videos or stup@id stunts for the sake of getting views!!.. social media, sickness of our time i guess :(.. what you think?
I don’t think it’s fair to compare China Mac with J.Somali. Mac actually cherish the locals and connects with them. Helps them out when he can. You have to understand, there are kind and twisted individuals in Vietnam.. just like in many other places. If you happen to run into a few bad ones consecutively (especially on a short trip), you may turn jaded and hold a bad impression of the whole country as a result
@@Darrenwalkingby that is true. agree with you. my point was the today trend of many influencers trying to get more viewers etc, they will make 'funny' or weird videos in unlikely places; like in little tokyo in hcm, workers or clients might not want to be seen for obvious reasons. i think some personal judgment and restrain are necessary to avoid misunderstanding.
Oh, he knew what that place was about but he wanted content for his channel. Once they started to tell him no camera, he should've respected that hood and the hustle. Put the camera down and walk away.
A lot of tourists want to come to cheap country to have more than vip . It’s their private life. However The more people found out on RUclips the more tourists coming in to bargains which is bad for business otherwise it will shutdown which tourists don’t want that. also most employees want their life to be private to earn money for education and provide income for their family .
Everyone with a functioning brain cell knows what's going on. If you want him to live in a cage be my guest, seems to be his goal too tbh. Play stupid games where they don't play any I guess lol
To be fair he was only filming himself until he turned the camera on them during confrontation. it clearly showed they are the aggressors, he has proof hes on defense. Alot of these comments are wack. Sure it would escalate and make things worst if he defended himself but he doesn't go around causing trouble on purpose. A lot of you don't realize that Mac did a great thing for the asian community back in the states. He started one of the earlier protest of anti Asian hate dyring the rise of asian hate crimes. This was before anti asian hate became spread out. Theres even a video of him deciding to start and doing the protest. He doesn't go around "doing whatever he wanted" besides the painting video. Most of you couldn't do what he does.
It’s too funny that those women working in this red light business but shy from camera. Well they want to get married after they are no longer able to work in xes. industry. Lol
As for "tiny girl" even my mother knows viet girls arent to be messed with so those volatile hostile girls definitely could have held their own. My mom told me viet girls even fought in the Vietnam war. Size doesn't matter its all about the heart
In Vietnam, theres no well known gang like the us. But places like this that is basically prostitution and are protected or overseen by the criminal under world in these location. Im from Vietnam and atleast the part where im from is. Youre in their world, they can gather up quickly. Same concept when pop smoke got merked in LA and hes from new york. China mac would have been outnumbered fast.
I think China Mac is still institutionalized from his time in prison as a non affiliated Asian man who had already grown up in the “childcare” system, dude admittedly had to constantly prove himself with violence. I think China Mac having the background he has not being understanding why he shouldn’t be filming potential “criminal/illegal” business and even getting angry at their responses is almost a contradiction in itself but the internet has people acting out of character constantly I guess.
Would it be better if they just put up some "no video" signs in this location to avoid future mishap? Not all tourists gonna know the rules. I mean a female tourist might think white dress on those ladies are beautiful and start recording while a chair flew across the ally and end up on her face. my 2c
Catch really blame China Mac here because when you watch these videos, you see all of these other RUclipsrs filming and not being harassed. Then you have people not saying whether or not you can so you really can't fault him here. There needs to be a clear sign or something about not being able to film in certain places. As far as the woman with the chair is concerned, he probably would have ended up doing something to her which would have been bad for both. Glad he was able to control himself and not let his past come out.
To be fair China Mac is literally lost in translation. It’s possible that he really was just reacting to being blindsided. This could be true but this means I also gave him too much credit for being street smart.
Bro... We were there last night and drank at Barbie bar... We had no issues what so ever .. my wife was filming with no issues. I get the saving face and one should always respect the country your in... We decided not to release our Japan town footage for that reason. Respect is key.
@@Rookies103 she did.. she was filming everything so I dunno.. I guess it depends. If they had asked she would have stopped as we didn't realise you couldn't.
@@Darrenwalkingby bang on 100% agree , but if you know Mac and where he's come from , violence with violence and some people are not about that life , some are, respect is earnt it's never given , tit for tat , 99% of vietnamese are amazing people and some are not , you have a new sub love the vids
I disagree with you and I'm gonna explain why... nowadays on RUclips,😊 drama and controversy gets you so far ahead with the algorithm. Mac is not a first time Vietnam tourist...he visited in the past and he's living there for 2 months He's fully aware of Japan town reputation and he knows what audience drives his algorithm on the channel
in Darren’s defense he explained everything very well, defending and warning Mac’s actions to other viewers. Darren explained the atmosphere between the day/night and what to expect. 👏 👏 Well in my opinion 2 months living here is the honeymoon stage, still learning. If you can make it 9 years then you are doing something I ❤ SGN
Yess, there are some places not okay to film in many countries, but if u were in a civilized country such as Japan, they will remind you not to film first, rather than yelling at u with f words😂

Thank you on the insight I always wanted to visit and go there so I learned something new thank you 🙏
This is a well explained video of how to act when visiting a foreign country. Great job!👍🏽
Great video. Great and fair take on the situation.
@Darren Walking By) You should Contact China Mac,
Introduce him to the Vietnam Culture with Safe Travels etc...
I'm a subscriber chnamac and enjoy watching videos Vietnam markets, food etc..

that would be nice to collaborate
but no, different characters, different content that wouldn’t fit together
As an American and fan of China Mac, I was surprised he responded like that. I do not know if he was playing for the camera. But, he is smart enough to know that he is not at home and is a foreigner in Vietnam. China Mac is street smart /savvy enough to know that those type of underground places are well connected. I am glad that it did not escalate more than what it did and that everyone is safe. But it is almost common sense. I was yelling at the screen please just walk away put the camera down and walk away. Had he hit that woman, he would have not made it back home alive. I was at home in Seattle at a party near the china town area. This was years ago. I am from the Seattle area. But I was in a neighborhood with friends as a guest. AND I am not Asian. I had my phone out recording the people at the party, the dj, some of my friends smoking ect. There was a group of guys that did not knw me and possibly did not like me. I must have had my phone in there direction at one time by accident. One came up to me and asked who I was and who I knew. another did not say anything and put his gun to my lower right side of my waist. Luckily my friends and the home owners saw it and diffused it immediately and told the guys I was cool, but the home owner asked me to put the phn away and it never came back out that night. I STILL have the footage. That was in my city. But I respected the house rules and it was not on my block. I would later find out the guys were dealers and alot of activity was happening at that party I was not aware of. It is not our rights or rules in someone else's home. Travelers must respect the laws, culture, and rules that are in place by those that live there. I agree with EVERYTHING that you said. Great clarification.
China Mac has Mako poisoning. Look at all the videos he has praising Vietnam and saying how safe it was and how nice everyone is. Even saying your personal belongings are safer in Vietnam than in America. He doesn’t even see it himself but his mind is clouded. Maybe he will make up sooner or later.
Great video bro, respect is the key word i got from this video
It is REALLY stupid to go into those girly bars unless you got money to burn
Pay for play. 😎
He did it for content, he knows what he's doing. He knows it'll get him views. What he's too shortsighted to see is it will put him on a shirt. One he won't be able to profit off of
@@OpoOnTheGo
He'll.easily become chop suey. 😂
I just watched China Mac video and then found yours, you need to explain this to Mac and take him around eating and travelling through Vietnam.
China mac is a 42 year old man 👴🏻. He has no hair. He is NOT a youngster. He should know this. No one needs to take him by the hand to show him proper etiquette on the streets.
This youtuber trying to get clout… i’ve been to vietnam there’s no mafia out there that’s all bullcrap.. there’s a lot of Americans, Australians, europeans that own many businesses out there… they don’t care about china mac recording video, actually its good cause it brings more tourists. Owners only care about is making money.. again MONEY .. this guy talking nonsense… those girls don’t have culture the reason why they get mad is because the real vietnam culture people will not hire them in a real legitimate job
You’re referring to a civil person. China mac takes roots in his gangster ancestors and does not know how to be civil and respect others.
Lets be honest..those ladies didnt even give him a chance to put it away and interact and ask why
Its not a debate, they don't need to explain and debate with him. Besides how are they going to explain stuff if they don't speak English? If they don't want to be filmed don't film. Simple as that. Especially if its prostitutes who don't want their faces all over RUclips. Its not that difficult to understand.
Thatvis true but he is not in america remember dont take american freedom and bring it to orther country and use it there it wont work.
Go watch the video again. That shit went on for a very long time. Not only did he not stop filming, mr tough guy wanted to pick a fight with a little girl. They literally can be his kids. But of course his gangster ass gotta be a tough guy
@@ninh05 you would get washed too my boy
2 Japanese dudes got killed in Japan town, tell China Mac to be careful in Japan town!!!😳
When was this
If he were a regular run of the mill clueless person from a sheltered environment who has zero street savvy I would take Mac's side but that's the thing, he is far from that. That's the reason why the people reacted so harshly and quickly. The way he looks and moves puts him in a different category. He knows how these things go - if you're a real G (like he raps about) you easily get a sense of where you're at, and it doesn't even matter if you're a different color in a completely different environment. And people living on that edge of the street know you right back. He knew what he was doing and he took a big risk doing it just for clicks.
China Mac knows what he's doing and what goes on there. He grew up in the hood. Even Henry knows not to get a Happy Ending😂. But I do agree with you when you said he needs to respect the locals.
Mac was wrong on this one
100% agree with everything you said except the part where you keep trying to defend him about the girls acting all crazy. The women had every right to go crazy after telling him off multiple times to stop filming and what dose china mac do? Keeps filming even tries to start shit almost for content obviously
No! I don't think he's wrong
Prostitution is prohibited by Vietnamese law
and that's the problem, imagine you go in some drug dealer house and start filming see if you make out alive
Prostitution or not, please don't point your camera at the other's faces without permisson.
I watch China Mac's videos but he can really display that American arrogance sometimes. When he was talking to Sky, he told her that Vietnam should change its ways if they want to attract more foreigners. That is a ridiculous thing to say and really shows his arrogance and immaturity. Also, painting the wall of his apartment was really stupid. Rather than trying to understand the full picture, he instead makes more videos defending himself. I don't know if he's really that dumb or if he's just trying to do it for content but either way it's distasteful behavior.
If you dont like china mac dont watch his videos
Didn’t say I don’t like him, recently saw his videos about Vietnam. And I like Vietnam content, also I watch for food recommendations
The laws the law man. People can film in public. Forget about people’s feelings. You can’t make everyone happy. But I have rights. And no one is going to violate them without repercussions by me or police. Sounds like you have fear in you.if you’re scared stay home lol.
I'm an American black man, and I never traveled overseas and know not to film in places I know nothing about unless I have the permission. great video bro!
why would it be prohibited ? it is in a public place.
Sometimes it gets strange. I got in a heated argument with a guy at the beach using a metal detector while I was filming
@@Darrenwalkingby i mean, people dont understand or care about the laws. Karens are everywhere, even in vietnam
These places are protected by local gangs and police, when they asked you not to film , respect that or 🏥
@@howietran5723 so police and government quietly allow sex industry. Lol.
@@howietran5723 so police and government quietly allow the red lights business to thrive. Lol. That is unspeakably legal. Too funny
Some dudes said vietnam has “very conservative culture “. LOL. Falling out of my chair from laughing 😂
Vietnam is no different from Thailand and Philippine. They are same origin, same people, and same thinking, same culture. So it makes sense that they have same kind of red light business. 👩💼
China Mac is slow. I hope he see this video
He probably doesn't watch RUclips, just grifts to the lowest common denominator here
USA westerner cowboy just a boy🤣he doesnt understand .
China Mac knew exactly why he couldn’t film he was playing dumb for content… fist minute in the video I knew it was sucky sucky $5 dollar love ❤️ you long time area lol 😂
If you real why don't you just hit up Mac and talk to him instead making video about him
I’ll get him a drink and chat if he’s down 💯
Well said and Fair and honest take 👌👍
This video is very informational. Thank you.
This is a very thoughtful video. 🌱
If they say do not film, then do not film. Why do some people have a problem with rules & authority?
The last two words used pretty loosely here..
Great video ❤️❤️❤️❤️respect the culture that’s true ❤❤❤❤
Good Video Darren
vietnam has laws and it is not illegal to film in public places
There are some bars in this area that allow filming, but not the massage places
@@Darrenwalkingby he was in public though. he didnt film inside the establishment
@@gallivant2023 That place isnt in a public area .
@@nict5828 you have never been to vietnam ?
And they allow free speech as long as you aren’t physically assaulting them or attacking them for no reason
You told us in the beginning of the video that they are in fact there doing Illegal acts now you're saying you don't know
IYKYK 💯🙏
There was a guy following China 🇨🇳 Mac the whole time, I don’t know if he noticed as soon as he got out of there another guy came up to the other guy, MAC need to be aware
I did rewatch that part and that guy had eyes on Mac the whole time
Bro we all know why he got pressed no need to explain lmfao
I’m pretty sure China Mac checked-in I don’t think he’s that stupid!
Seems spontaneous based on what he told me ruclips.net/video/wfhVG3EcQJA/видео.htmlsi=E-emyhWyrcuP7ywE
Thank you brother for your explaination.❤
VIP shops will negotiate special services in private. Those lovely creatures on the street are just hooks.
It's all about respect for each others whether you are in your country or some other country and the last thing you wanna be is locked up abroad
CM doesn't have a kind face, I don't think he is a nice person by nature.
There are no signs in the certain neighborhoods in the USA to not where BLUE or not wear RED....that is why you have to be street smart..obiviously Mr. Mac is not, for HCMC at least, peace.
China Mac is just plain ignorant!!!
Will be explained in the next video
We need to be mindful of being in other countries and respect their wishes and culture. I know foreigners come to the states and do stuff we don’t approve but there’s a way to go about it
Good video Darren
Well explained
Hopefully China Mac learned his lesson
If you’re foreigners it doesn’t mean you a king. 🙄🙄🙄
Darren I don’t completely agrees with what u all saying regardless of there a camera or not lawfully it’s not illegal to film there …so it’s completely legal he could of easily took it to the authorities and said he got assaulted if she swang at him. And he didn’t even film the girls …the camera on him minding his own business…not on them …until they call him out aggressively from no where then he reacted back…I respect people culture but when u chose that profession it’s all on you no one force that job on you……I felt if the girls went about more nicely it be a better approach.
I agree with you. 100% they (the girls) should’ve been more polite and discreet about it 💯👍
He painted a place he was renting from which he knew was prohibited. This shows you the type of person he is.
A rule breaker 😂 simmer down
Are you so dumb that you couldn’t see the whole Vietnam shit is for content and is not 100% real?
Yeah and he’s a former legit gang member who spent a decade in prison with goons. While you live under your moms.
@@RDawgs I bet you the one sucking his rod while in prison with him 😂
@@RDawgs awe did I hurt someone's feelings? 😂
China Mac goes overseas and thinks he can do whatever he wants. He needs to realize he's not in America anymore and have respect for these people
Yup. He is dum.b 😅.. Plague of the youngsters 😮
He's Asian American. Calm down
@@wadi5145 he's a American Asian? that don't mean nothing to me genius, Americans no matter what race they doing the most chaos things in these countries, so they need to behave, so what are you talking about?
You sound goofy as hell. Just as well, foreigners come over here disrespectful. Because we allow it. Respect all around needs to be shown 🤡
@@wadi5145 yup. that is the problem :)
his behavior reminds me of another influencer in the name of johnny somali who got arrested in japan over provocative videos or stup@id stunts for the sake of getting views!!.. social media, sickness of our time i guess :(.. what you think?
I don’t think it’s fair to compare China Mac with J.Somali. Mac actually cherish the locals and connects with them. Helps them out when he can. You have to understand, there are kind and twisted individuals in Vietnam.. just like in many other places. If you happen to run into a few bad ones consecutively (especially on a short trip), you may turn jaded and hold a bad impression of the whole country as a result
@@Darrenwalkingby that is true. agree with you. my point was the today trend of many influencers trying to get more viewers etc, they will make 'funny' or weird videos in unlikely places; like in little tokyo in hcm, workers or clients might not want to be seen for obvious reasons. i think some personal judgment and restrain are necessary to avoid misunderstanding.
Local officials probably have a dip in these businesses. He would be in big trouble.
Plain and simple, if you're from the US stay in the US. To many do's and dont's in other countries.
That’s why people travel, to learn and broaden their horizon
Wow it’s all stupid, for sure their business will get worst, words get around.
Oh, he knew what that place was about but he wanted content for his channel. Once they started to tell him no camera, he should've respected that hood and the hustle. Put the camera down and walk away.
We discuss this in the next video, hopefully it’ll get approved for release soon 💯👍
A lot of tourists want to come to cheap country to have more than vip . It’s their private life. However The more people found out on RUclips the more tourists coming in to bargains which is bad for business otherwise it will shutdown which tourists don’t want that. also most employees want their life to be private to earn money for education and provide income for their family .
It looked like he was purposely creating dramas/scenes to get views if anybody notices like me.
I don’t think anyone would risk violence for views. Creators make videos for reach and engagement but not to those ends
Very well said. China mac was out of line and thats dangerous
Soo do u know if the women from there likes Black American Men or not!
I reckon he has to go back in there with a hidden cam to see what’s really going on.
He knows what's going on. He's not dumb.
Everyone with a functioning brain cell knows what's going on. If you want him to live in a cage be my guest, seems to be his goal too tbh. Play stupid games where they don't play any I guess lol
To be fair he was only filming himself until he turned the camera on them during confrontation. it clearly showed they are the aggressors, he has proof hes on defense. Alot of these comments are wack. Sure it would escalate and make things worst if he defended himself but he doesn't go around causing trouble on purpose.
A lot of you don't realize that Mac did a great thing for the asian community back in the states. He started one of the earlier protest of anti Asian hate dyring the rise of asian hate crimes. This was before anti asian hate became spread out. Theres even a video of him deciding to start and doing the protest.
He doesn't go around "doing whatever he wanted" besides the painting video.
Most of you couldn't do what he does.
Do you think Crime Bosses care about all of that?
who cares bro, do you think they know about that. And that's his channel, he only show us what he want us to see.
Who cares what he does in the US! Respect the unwritten laws of the locals! He acted dumb and played victim!
Exactly 👍 I totally agree
It’s too funny that those women working in this red light business but shy from camera. Well they want to get married after they are no longer able to work in xes. industry. Lol
All women should respect all men simply as that...
Everyone lets respect each other. But you’re right, she was outta pocket with all that yelling and chair aggression
It goes both ways.
As for "tiny girl" even my mother knows viet girls arent to be messed with so those volatile hostile girls definitely could have held their own. My mom told me viet girls even fought in the Vietnam war. Size doesn't matter its all about the heart
In Vietnam, theres no well known gang like the us. But places like this that is basically prostitution and are protected or overseen by the criminal under world in these location. Im from Vietnam and atleast the part where im from is. Youre in their world, they can gather up quickly. Same concept when pop smoke got merked in LA and hes from new york. China mac would have been outnumbered fast.
I think China Mac is still institutionalized from his time in prison as a non affiliated Asian man who had already grown up in the “childcare” system, dude admittedly had to constantly prove himself with violence. I think China Mac having the background he has not being understanding why he shouldn’t be filming potential “criminal/illegal” business and even getting angry at their responses is almost a contradiction in itself but the internet has people acting out of character constantly I guess.
China Mac is a convicted felon. I don’t need to say more. Just ignore the idiot
Would it be better if they just put up some "no video" signs in this location to avoid future mishap? Not all tourists gonna know the rules. I mean a female tourist might think white dress on those ladies are beautiful and start recording while a chair flew across the ally and end up on her face. my 2c
😂
underrated comment 💯
Thanks for the explanation. 👍
Catch really blame China Mac here because when you watch these videos, you see all of these other RUclipsrs filming and not being harassed. Then you have people not saying whether or not you can so you really can't fault him here. There needs to be a clear sign or something about not being able to film in certain places. As far as the woman with the chair is concerned, he probably would have ended up doing something to her which would have been bad for both. Glad he was able to control himself and not let his past come out.
Gotta respect to get respect. Human nature it is common sense! I would not test Mac!
places providing happy ending services ofcourse they don't wanted to be revealed. later cops will rush dem places.
Why is she walking to the camera if she don't want to lose face..they could walk in the shop but chose to be on camera..
We 16 happy ending shops just in my town.every town in the Us has at least 2 massage happy ending shops.😅
"I'll beat your face in" 😂😂😂
To be fair China Mac is literally lost in translation. It’s possible that he really was just reacting to being blindsided. This could be true but this means I also gave him too much credit for being street smart.
I think the two big guys walking after China Mac going out of they alley were part of the gang.
I just noticed that.. thought they were just nosy tourists!
Bro... We were there last night and drank at Barbie bar... We had no issues what so ever .. my wife was filming with no issues. I get the saving face and one should always respect the country your in... We decided not to release our Japan town footage for that reason. Respect is key.
Film the lady's in white and you will see ,
@@Rookies103 she did.. she was filming everything so I dunno.. I guess it depends. If they had asked she would have stopped as we didn't realise you couldn't.
@@keepingitrealph maybe because it's china Mac lol, lived the vid
Some bars are ok with filming, especially when you’re spending money in there, it’s on a per case basis.
@@Darrenwalkingby bang on 100% agree , but if you know Mac and where he's come from , violence with violence and some people are not about that life , some are, respect is earnt it's never given , tit for tat , 99% of vietnamese are amazing people and some are not , you have a new sub love the vids
I get it but mac handled it pretty well he held his cool.
Is Chinatown ok to go to lol because i bet the food is bomb 😋🤤
I disagree with you and I'm gonna explain why... nowadays on RUclips,😊 drama and controversy gets you so far ahead with the algorithm.
Mac is not a first time Vietnam tourist...he visited in the past and he's living there for 2 months
He's fully aware of Japan town reputation and he knows what audience drives his algorithm on the channel
in Darren’s defense he explained everything very well, defending and warning Mac’s actions to other viewers. Darren explained the atmosphere between the day/night and what to expect. 👏 👏
Well in my opinion 2 months living here is the honeymoon stage, still learning.
If you can make it 9 years then you are doing something
I ❤ SGN
Nice video. Thanks .
Yess, there are some places not okay to film in many countries, but if u were in a civilized country such as Japan, they will remind you not to film first, rather than yelling at u with f words😂
What is the price for se..x ?
because there real gangster in vn, most of this area control by these guys.
