Attitude :Vietnam much better, the Thais are extremely racist

I've had the opposite experience.

Do you speak Thai and聽 know what they say about us 'farangs'. Look behind the Thai smile.
That is not to say that there are聽 some genuinely friendly Thais, and plenty of Vietnamese jerks(especially in Hoi An)

I know what the Thai's say about the Farangs.聽 I've had a long relationship with a Thai woman in the past.聽 She's translated everything people say about us.

But it's no different here in Vietnam.

Farangs?

That's what white male men are called in Thailand.

White women are farangs too
Do the Vietnamese really say these things [swear words I can't even mention on this forum or I would get banned] about US?
The Vietnamese of 20/30 years ago probably did, but the new generation, I doubt it, although can't say anything definite as I am doing my first baby steps with this very difficult language.

Not so sure what you mean.. let me ask around. haha

You were talking about racism.
I thought you meant racism because of the color of the skin or other religious views and not because of "racism" relating to the politics.

My wife is often verbal attacked or affronted here in HCMC just because she is with a white man. We have even been physically attacked in D1 by a silly drunken Vietnamese just because we ignored his affronted words (that was the reason why we leaved D1).

As I heard, the Thais just deride about the stupid Farangs who let themselves be bleeded dry by hot Thai women.
And a false smile can be easily recognized and is also practiced in public in the West.

But here in HCMC I see so many frustrated, annoyed and arrogant faces every day.
Even my wife said that the Thais are much friendlier and happier than the most Vietnamese in HCMC.

Probably after staying some years in Vietnam and after I visited other places I will meet a lot of kind Vietnamese.

Can't tell you whether the Vietnamese say the swear words bout the US when I don't know what those words are.聽 Haven't heard any negative things being said about US as a nation.聽 And I would understand everything because I'm a Vietnamese-American who speaks Vietnamese fluently.聽 My long-time spouse is American (Canadian-American actually).聽 We're attached at the hip, so there are plenty of opportunities for people to bad mouth US and Americans in general, or us in particular, if they wish.

As mentioned above Thai (and Lao) food is really awesome and Thailand is certainly a more fun place to be. So, living and work in VN and holidaying in Thailand may be your best option.

Yes, Thai food is really yummy and healthy.
And the non-smoker protection in Thailand is exemplary.

If I wasn't happily married to a Vietnamese woman, I would live in Thailand (or Singapore).聽

But a holiday in Thailand from time to time is a good option.聽
