Customer Reviews

Good review

One will be able to peruse this work in an hour or so. Gives good working knowledge of Vietnamese ettiquette and mind-set. Great to have on hand as a reminder of what Vietnamese clients or students will expect from you. Generally accurate. Made me long for the days that I was fortunate enough to teach English to students from Viet Nam.

Short, to the point intro to business etiquette in Vietnam

This is a quick, easy read for anyone who wants an introduction to Vietnamese culture, particularly business culture. The clip art in the book looks cheap and the authors could have used tone marks in the Vietnamese vocabulary section. (Vietnamese is a tonal language and using different tones changes the meaning of words.) But, overall it is a useful book for anyone planning a personal or business trip to Vietnam.

A must even for the non-business traveller

This is one of the two books I read in preparing for a 3 week stay in Vietnam. The content was right on the mark, and helpful for even this non-business traveler.

A Very Small But Informative Book

Since Vietnam has opened its doors to the West, many business are moving their production sites and facilities to this fascinating country. If you happen to be a businessperson in this situation or just a tourist, this book will help you understand your hosts mentality and their way of life. A "Must Read" before you leave, if you do not have a lot of time to read other books which go much more in-depth on the subject.
