A WEBSITE FOR EXPATS, BY EXPATS by Julien
Hi, º£½ÇÂÒÂ× defines itself as "the online community for expats, by expats" We received too many complains these last weeks about locals systematically hijacking treads, posting ads (which should be posted in the dedicated sections), ...
Since the function is in place, it would be good to make it more conspicuous and educate the users on what/ when to report a post. Read More

Just a suggestion. How about having a 'dislike' or 'flag' button where forum users can highlight an advert post? Admins can then filter out these posts with high numbers of dislike/ flag and remove them if applicable. I agree with ... Read More

Where to buy safe vegetables/ groceries from? by HuiTing88
Hi All, Is there any shop which sells ALL clean and safe vegetables and groceries in Ho Chi Minh City which you guys are patronizing already? I have read articles/ stories online that not all vegetable from supermarkets/ stores are clean and ...
Without competition, businesses will stay complacent. I do think a healthy dose of it is necessary to make the private sector progress. And the same time, when it comes to the basic welfare needs of the people, the government has to ensure it is ... Read More

Hi 8912, Perhaps you might have misunderstood, but the discussion here is anything but to introduce competition to the local farmers. There're actually a few parts to this thread; sales of unsafe food, community awareness, and where to buy ... Read More

Can't deposit cash into my account? by treesahquiche
I was told by Vietcombank that I couldn't deposit cash into my account because I'm a foreigner, and I could only do account-to-account transfers. Apparently only my employer is allowed to deposit money into my account. I'm not really clear on the ...
To be clear on my situ: no, I do not have an employer. I might work, might not. Checking the place out. No return ticket. So having banking makes sense for me. I am not looking for stop gap solutions like a prepaid card. I was able to open the ... Read More

Hi Chix4, Thanks for your reply! Would you mind sharing more why you think unsafe food is a very real problem there? I totally agree with you. The main challenge would be to educate (which will take years perhaps) the public, and like what you ... Read More

Hi Kai, Thanks for sharing. I do believe that the effect of cancer is not immediate, but that doesn't mean we ignore the fact that the everyday food we are eating is actually leading us down the path. I do agree that the local communities are ... Read More
