Hello, I'll be interviewing locals & foreigners in Vietnam... What questions or topics would you like to know more of from the people here? Also if you're in Saigon & open to be interviewed, DM me on IG @theskyetran
I’m American, this guy’s hand gestures are so distracting! If I am talking to him I swear I have to close my eyes to pay attention …. Not hating, that’s just me 😅
@@ocmanga5685I disagree, as an American , I know many people who lie and animate their voice and use exaggerated gestures. But I can see how you would be fooled. Same as us Americans, we may not always know what “local” people are really thinking 💭
Cô ấy là một người gốc việt và chắc chắn là cô ấy hiểu tiếng anh hơn tiếng việt. Ví dụ như anh chàng người Nhật Takumi nói "like me" đại ý "giống như tôi", thì cô ấy lại dịch thành "thích tôi". Nhưng không sao, đó là một sự nhầm lẫn và có thể cải thiện theo thời gian. Ai cũng cần phải học, mỗi lần sai sót sẽ giúp chúng ta tiến bộ hơn.
at 4:02 she mentioned the "extreme laid back culture" which roughly means people are quite "not-so-serious", but your caption said "cực đoan văn hóa sa thải" which means "extreme job firing culture". I believe you can use "văn hóa quá thoải mái" instead :D
@@skyetran just don't be too straightforward on the translation, such as 7:47 Grab is a noun so don't need to translate it, or 15:35 tones = tông màu, but in this context it mean tông/tone giọng". But overall, I can still understand most of the translation.
Ồ, bạn nói tôi mới để ý đến phần phụ đề, bởi vì tôi thường che phụ đề đi để luyện phản xạ nghe tiếng anh. Đúng là nó rất kì cục và mang một ý nghĩa hoàn toàn khác.
@@bac9760in this particular instance, i think she meant "remembering the tomes" as in the "dấu" or tonal markers, where words can change their tone with different markers, if that makes sense lmao
People are using the term third world to describe undeveloped countries lately but it is wrong and annoying. The term first, second, and third world came after world War two. Whichever countries signed to be with the US and England are first world, NATO. Whichever countries signed with Russia are second world, warsaw pact. Whichever countries didn't sign with neither or stay neutral are third world. Got nothing to do with economic challenges. Finland and Sweden just now, this year, signed with nato. Were they economically challenged until now? When describing a country's economic state, yours is always the first world, everybody else is the third world. No one is the second world. Where is the logic going from the first world to the third world and no one is the second world?
In terms of both GDP and GDP per capita, vietnam and south Africa are pretty much the same. It’s weird to say vietnam is “third world” compared to south Africa
Awesome video Skye thanks so much for sharing! Been living in Korea for 5 months as an English teacher but defiantly interested to explore Vietnam for long term travel and work opportunities!
Thank you for your time and posting. I'll be visiting VN in October to see if I want to retire there next year. But I will pass on HCMC, just to big. Thank you again.
I moved to VN 3 months ago & I love it. I'm Viet Kieu, so I fit right in, everything is so cheap here, especially meds, I can get meds without seeing a doctor. I'm blessed in that I earn US $ & spend in VN, best of both worlds.
Great interviews with relevant questioning. Guest was allowed to answer in their own way without interruption. Very well done. Note: The South African lady is a natural Beauty, no make up, but absolutely stunning. Working on her MBA too…what a catch!
Im from Brazil, ASIA is very secure if compare with another countries the valours are different Im very happy to be in Thailand for 3 months... will visite Vietnan soon.
Some things laid back and some things don’t You look at all markets it’s very busy all day through Vietnam Workers are working so hard compared to the west They work in the heat and they are sitting on the ground Quite tough work from 6 am to 6 pm from Monday to Saturday without stopping never take a holiday in their whole lives
18:00 Yes! The fatigue from being in a very foreign environment is such a real experience. The upside is you sleep really well at night from being so mentally tired. I wonder if it would be less exhausting if I exercised vigorously everyday and ate more eggs and fish for the brain.
Great video!. Can you make a video about Muslim who live in Vietnam? For example in Ho Chi Minh. I would like to know about this since I am planning to live there but kinda worry about halal food.
@@skyetran Yes, finding muslim maybe quite difficult in Vietnam but if you do find them, I want to know, 1. How do they manage their day-to-day lives as Muslims in Vietnam? 2. Where do they buy halal groceries, or do they have specific stores they recommend? (This is the most important because we need to eat everyday) 3. If halal options are limited, how do they adapt their diet? 4. Do they eat mostly home-cooked food, or have they found any trusted restaurants or suppliers? 5. If mosques are limited, do they have other places for gathering and prayer? 6. How do local Vietnamese people perceive Muslims? Is there curiosity, acceptance, or misunderstanding? 7. Do they feel comfortable openly practicing their religion, like wearing hijabs or fasting during Ramadan? 8. What coping strategies or advice do they have for other Muslims considering moving there? Thanks Skye!
Great interview! I really like listening to every interviewee' perspective. Just one minor correction: at 20:06, she's saying "Bien Hoa" not "Ben Thanh"
Wish you interviewed a different South African. Someone who speaks about their country more positively. I’m from Cape Town SA and I miss it every single day. It has far better infrastructure, insanely beautiful nature and friendly/polite people. I’ve been to a few countries and nothing compares.
Skye, I think you might be attracted to the gentleman from Japan. You actually made visuals with him and higher energy! Yes, he was handsome! Thank you for your vids. I’m from southern CA also. However, live here now for a few days.
Những cuộc phỏng vấn trong video rất thú vị, tuy nhất có 1 điểm mình muốn góp ý là ở phần subtitle, bạn nên review kĩ hơn, phần tiếng anh thì ổn còn phần tiếng việt nhiều lúc thấy dịch hơi bị word by word, điển hình là ở phút 7:48, 6:48. Chúc kênh phát triển nha
Vietnam is no longer a third world country. Besides, some people that you interview are trying to make eye contact with you but you rarely look into their eyes.
Mình góp ý xíu nha, phần Vietsub ở dưới nhiều chỗ dịch sai quá bạn, như kiểu dùng công cụ dịch tự động word-by-word chứ không phải người dịch ấy. "laid back culture" là "văn hóa ung dung/nhàn nhã" chứ không phải "văn hóa sa thải". "living expenses make sense" là "chi phí sinh hoạt hợp lý" chứ không nên dịch là "chi phí sinh hoạt có ý nghĩa", nghe rất tối nghĩa ạ. Hoặc câu của anh người Nhật "I have to use Grab everytime" mà tự nhiên lại thành "Tôi phải sử dụng đồ thị mọi lúc"??? Còn nhiều nữa mình không thể liệt kê hết, nói chung mong bạn đầu tư chăm chút và cải thiện hơn phần Vietsub nhé ạ, đọc cmt thấy cũng nhiều người học tiếng Anh/tiếng Việt thông qua các video của bạn mà dịch sai thế này thì tai hại lắm ạ.
Great ways to open up and introduce VN to the world and especially Viet people who born Oversea get to know VN better if they no longer have any connections back to VN. Thank you for doing this. How is VN similar to SEA/East Asia and different from it?
Glad this could be as educational for you as it was for me...I plan on sharing more videos like this sharing from different perspectives from the people who live here :)
Hi Skye, nice video, how do you do for subtitles ? I suppose you have someone work for you but I am impressed if you have some tips I would be happy to do the same than you so my content can be viewed by vietnamese people, the best people
13:49 hell yeah , in ha noi capital there a auntie selling phở , she is the best and only known by recommend from friends, if you visiter there low chances you can meet a people known her 😂
South Africa isn't a first world country. Vietnam even has a higher GDP than South Africa. Also, what is this lady talking about "they'll kill you in my country but here they would rather just rob you" - There are barely any robberies in Vietnam or anywhere in Southeast or East Asia. Why even suggest that "at least people won't kill you here" as if people are getting robbed everyday in Vietnam when it is an extremely rare occurrence. Don't even make that comparison when you haven't even seen cases of tourists getting robbed at all in Vietnam.
I think she means phone or purse snatching. I don't think she means robbery in the violent sense. Violence is non existent. Very rarely. I saw a fight over a girl once. Two young guys. That's going to happen anywhere. It's about a 1000 times safer than the US
@@angryashell100robbery by definition involves violence or threat of violence. I think she misspoke. She probably meant to say steal from you, not rob.
@@angryashell100 Phone or purse snatching is robbery. Yes, the entire continent of Asia with several billion people is safe. You never hear Asians express fear of crime about other Asian cities because there is practically no crime there. It's only foreigners from countries with lots of crime that comment on the safety of Asian cities because they're not used to the feeling of being 100% safe that they can't even believe it's real.
others have mentioned it but i think you would benefit a lot from having better translation for subtitles, both English & Viet. they're a bit all over the place atm :( nonetheless very interest takes from all 3 of them. my south african girl (her old HR is from Bến Hoà btw not Bến Thành) pls look out for urself still! things can get crazy there real quick
I want to move to Saigon with my family. I have 3 small children so im unsure about the education. We do not want to pay the international tuition fees. Its ridiculously expensive costing nearly 10k-15k per child per year. Anyone have suggestions?
i'm not a saigonese but live here for 5years and i have heard about international students in normal schooll. if you dont want your children to go to an international school, do a research then send emails or phone calls to the local schools, ask them if them could take english speaking students. It will be easier if your children can speak daily or basic vietnamese, the local schools will take them in easier if they under middle schools, from secondary school the locals have tests to ensure the quality of students so it would be harder to step in after secondary school and especially high school. Last things, i usually hear that most international student will get a year of re learning to get use to the new educatinl system, so they will take 1 year late than other as same ages.
Apparently, the APEC card doesn't work in the USA for the Koreans. The USA is a member of APEC, though So we still need ESTA, but can use the fast track One more thing, the reason why you got the many airdrops is not they're very very friendly, but you're handsome 😂
I been hangout and observe western since 15 years, everything just simply Vietnam cheap and friendly and that is nothing sound cool for me, like people be here not by choice
@@skyetran You should interview more Vietnamese people from poor family background, from different generations, interview people who escaped Vietnam during Vietnam War, etc... to know what is 'under surface of Vietnam'.
Mình đóng góp ý để kênh có thể cải tiến thôi. Nhưng ai làm vietsub cho kênh thì hơi bị lười đấy, đọc vietsub toàn giống kiểu google translate, thậm chí nhiều chỗ dịch sai ý nữa.
First world / Third world terms have nothing to do with how developed a country is. It's all about their alliance during the cold war. Vietnam is a second world country, not a third world country, because Vietnam sided with the USSR.
Very difficult to really know Vietnam. It's a land of ilusion. Nothing is quite what you think. I can tell these people being interviewed don't get it. Vietnam is similar to Britain you open your mouth and people know exactly where you come from and it matters a lot. It matters a great deal. However as a tourist or xhort term resident this disparagey means nothing...just enjoy but there is a massive secret that's hidden in plain sight.
Yes, Vietnam is and was third world. Vietnam never was a member of the Warsaw pact nor NATO. First world, after world war two, whoever signed with NATO, the USA and great Britain. The second world, the Warsaw pact, signed with Russia. Third world, countries that never signed with neither or stay neutral. Nothing to do with economic challenges like the term is being misused today. Finland and Sweden just joined NATO this year, were they economic challenges or underdeveloped and poor?
@@prunecuda1 I’m not gonna read any of your comment since I did do research on Wikipedia and it says Vietnam is a 2nd world country, mate. I’m not lying
@@Philiplubert Vietnam took grants and aids from Russia. There is a very strong bond between Vietnam and Russia. But Vietnam never listed as a member of the Warsaw pact. If there is a treaty to say that Vietnam was, i never heard of it.
@@Philiplubert in the 40s and the 50s, Vietnam was under the French colony after WW2. The only thing I can think of is that after seeking help from Amerika and was turned down since Amerika was helping the French to reboot its shambled economy, ho chi Minh turned communist. Since all communists are considered to be aligned with Eastern block communist, Vietnam was considered as the second world. But the truth was, Vietnam was never a member.
@@prunecuda1 You seriously blamed Vietnam for not aligning with those East European countries? The western people has always viewed Vietnam as a bad communist country because of their lack of geopolitical knowledge and narrow historical perspective. We have suffered too many wars with the French, USA and even our neighbor countries in the past to fight for our freedom and independence, while maybe your country was living prosperously in peace. As you didn’t know, Vietnam is the impermanent members of the United Nations Security Council and we are comprehensive strategic partner with both China and the US. Both of the most powerful president in the world visited Vietnam in 2023 and also Putin visited our country in the last month - June 2024. Now the Asian peace and our regional security are all focus on Vietnam for being the country of peace since 2021. Accordingly, we have voted neutrally against the Russian-Ukrainian war and condemned the attack on innocent victims at Hamas but what we achieved was the Ukraine's hateful attitude and they trampled on the statue of our greatest leader.
look at the people you're interviewing .... why u staring off into the distance zoned out and other times staring at the ground while theyre answering your question haha. work on your eye contact.. very important for interviewing.
Ms Rebecca! Mình hiểu cảm giác của bạn khi phát âm tiếng Việt. ĐIều đó khiến bạn thiếu tự tin. Nhưng người Việt luôn có các giải quyết các vấn đề. Nếu thật sự bạn muốn học Tiếng Việt. Tôi có thể giúp bạn miễn phí. Để bạn thấy thêm yêu tiếng Việt và hứng thú học nó. Có gì bạn cứ trả lơi tôi. Tôi sẽ cung cấp số điện thoại để chúng ta có thể liên hệ bàn thêm.
Một số điểm du lịch hoặc trong một số lĩnh vực có thể có nhiều người quan tâm đến người nước ngoài, nhưng người dân địa phương thông thường không quan tâm đến người nước ngoài. Họ không thể quan tâm đến người nước ngoài vì họ phải lo cho cuộc sống của họ. Và càng sống lâu ở Việt Nam, bạn càng nhận ra rằng suy nghĩ và văn hóa của người Việt Nam chủ yếu xoay quanh chủ nghĩa cá nhân.

As long as you bring money to VN, everything is OK. If you take the money back, you will know the bad side.
If your income is legal and you can proof it, you can take it back.
@@S1lverarrow, People have lives. Who wants to waste their lives to deal with this.
If you look at in all markets and people work in the streets streets vendors
busy busy every day
Thích 👍..nhưng dịch chữ VN nhỏ rất khó đọc...nếu phỏng vấn bằng tiếng Anh, thì chữ VN phải lớn hơn chữ englinhs (Anh)
Bo la lot is actually beef not pork .

All markets are not laid back

5:41 i don't know what is she talking about, maybe she not live in saigon
6:00 "certain people" 💀
Many things cost money in Vietnam. The foreigners in the video see the surface of Vietnam or small part of it, not see it deeply...
what's below the surface that you're talking about? :)
@@skyetran You should interview more Vietnamese people from poor family background, from different generations, interview people who escaped Vietnam during Vietnam War, etc... to know what is 'under surface of Vietnam'.
Mình đóng góp ý để kênh có thể cải tiến thôi. Nhưng ai làm vietsub cho kênh thì hơi bị lười đấy, đọc vietsub toàn giống kiểu google translate, thậm chí nhiều chỗ dịch sai ý nữa.
you're from vn and you're vietnamese and your name is sky?
Hello, I’m from the states
First world / Third world terms have nothing to do with how developed a country is. It's all about their alliance during the cold war. Vietnam is a second world country, not a third world country, because Vietnam sided with the USSR.
14:20 he's living in the ghetto 😂
Very difficult to really know Vietnam. It's a land of ilusion. Nothing is quite what you think. I can tell these people being interviewed don't get it.
Vietnam is similar to Britain you open your mouth and people know exactly where you come from and it matters a lot. It matters a great deal. However as a tourist or xhort term resident this disparagey means nothing...just enjoy but there is a massive secret that's hidden in plain sight.
'"Laid back" mean "nghỉ trưa" in your video, not "sa thải"
"laid back" is not "nghỉ trưa" or "sa thải". "laid back" or "easy going" means "từ tốn, nhẹ nhàng, không quá áp lực" .

South Africa is developing second~third world country, it is two times more poorer than russia. No difference with Vietnam
Did she just say Vietnam is know for third world country??? I’m gonna articulate this but Vietnam isn’t a third world country, mate!
Yes, Vietnam is and was third world. Vietnam never was a member of the Warsaw pact nor NATO. First world, after world war two, whoever signed with NATO, the USA and great Britain. The second world, the Warsaw pact, signed with Russia. Third world, countries that never signed with neither or stay neutral. Nothing to do with economic challenges like the term is being misused today. Finland and Sweden just joined NATO this year, were they economic challenges or underdeveloped and poor?
@@prunecuda1 I’m not gonna read any of your comment since I did do research on Wikipedia and it says Vietnam is a 2nd world country, mate. I’m not lying
@@Philiplubert Vietnam took grants and aids from Russia. There is a very strong bond between Vietnam and Russia. But Vietnam never listed as a member of the Warsaw pact. If there is a treaty to say that Vietnam was, i never heard of it.
@@Philiplubert in the 40s and the 50s, Vietnam was under the French colony after WW2. The only thing I can think of is that after seeking help from Amerika and was turned down since Amerika was helping the French to reboot its shambled economy, ho chi Minh turned communist. Since all communists are considered to be aligned with Eastern block communist, Vietnam was considered as the second world. But the truth was, Vietnam was never a member.
@@prunecuda1 You seriously blamed Vietnam for not aligning with those East European countries? The western people has always viewed Vietnam as a bad communist country because of their lack of geopolitical knowledge and narrow historical perspective. We have suffered too many wars with the French, USA and even our neighbor countries in the past to fight for our freedom and independence, while maybe your country was living prosperously in peace. As you didn’t know, Vietnam is the impermanent members of the United Nations Security Council and we are comprehensive strategic partner with both China and the US. Both of the most powerful president in the world visited Vietnam in 2023 and also Putin visited our country in the last month - June 2024. Now the Asian peace and our regional security are all focus on Vietnam for being the country of peace since 2021. Accordingly, we have voted neutrally against the Russian-Ukrainian war and condemned the attack on innocent victims at Hamas but what we achieved was the Ukraine's hateful attitude and they trampled on the statue of our greatest leader.
look at the people you're interviewing .... why u staring off into the distance zoned out and other times staring at the ground while theyre answering your question haha. work on your eye contact.. very important for interviewing.

Một số điểm du lịch hoặc trong một số lĩnh vực có thể có nhiều người quan tâm đến người nước ngoài, nhưng người dân địa phương thông thường không quan tâm đến người nước ngoài. Họ không thể quan tâm đến người nước ngoài vì họ phải lo cho cuộc sống của họ. Và càng sống lâu ở Việt Nam, bạn càng nhận ra rằng suy nghĩ và văn hóa của người Việt Nam chủ yếu xoay quanh chủ nghĩa cá nhân.
The Vietnamese translation is pretty bad lol, even worse than Google Translate.
Hmm, I noticed no one is talking about how in South Africa she is a colonizer. History matters 😔
The caps are wayy off lmao
Ms Tran you really need to brush up on your interviewing skills your body language towards the people your asking questions is very off putting 😏
