Just curious,...

 

What are your thoughts on coffee money in Vietnam? and Why?

 

Personally, as an American I was surprised and shocked at the same time to see corruption like this exists. On the other hand, it does make things move so much faster - saving time and headache. A little gift seems to go a long way in Vietnam, more so than it would in the States. I've experienced this in other countries as well such as Korea, and Mexico. Also, coffee money doesn't need to be big to help. a simple $5USD can help them, and your case (whatever that may be). Please feel free to elaborate your thoughts on this.
