tôi cũng như Vogt-Roberts đều không biết nguyên nhân vì sao anh ta bị 2 người đàn ông Việt Nam đánh, nhưng hành động đó đã làm xấu về hình tượng con người Việt Nam thân thiện, mến khách. cho dù họ có là côn đồ đi nữa thì việc đánh Vogt-Roberts trong club cũng là 1 hành động xấu, nó sẽ làm cho 1 số người sẽ nghĩ xấu về con người Việt Nam.

Its the best way to grow with your neighbours. ASEAN countries will have to cooperate as much as possible in future in order to keep up with china. The growth of their economies is an important start, but I agree with the statement of the article that in order to keep the growth sustainable and longlasting the nations will have to invest in education and small businesses. There economy still relies on foreign investments, tourism and real estate which can be unstable.
Today I am most interested in this news.
