Work In Vietnam

The year is 1965: the skate board is the latest craze in kids toys; the miniskirt makes its appearance; hypertext is introduced for linking on the Internet; Kellogg 's Pop Tarts pastries are created; Sonny & Cher make their first TV appearance in "American Bandstand”; rights activist Malcolm X is shot dead; the Gemini 3 launched the first US 2-man space flight; and the first United States combat forces arrive in Vietnam. This was not the start of the Vietnam War since the war actually started in 1955, pitting Communist North Vietnam against anti-Communist South Vietnam. The United States believed it had to protect South Vietnam from Communist take-over and is the reason the U.S. supplied South Vietnam with millions of dollars in military aid as well as with military advisors from the start of the war. Eventually, the US had no other choice but to send troops to war and it became the first war Americans opposed publicly and passionately, making the US involvement in the Vietnam War a shameful venture rather than a noble cause. Although the Vietnam War was the first televised war, it is unclear if Vietnam War films are able to give an honest portrayal of the Vietnam War experience, or if truer reality of the war can be found only in textbooks.

After about thirty years of fighting in the Vietnam War, the country was finally united again but under communist ruling subsequent to the fall of Saigon on April 30, 1975. The country was later on declared a communist country on July 2, 1976. When the war ended, it caused many issues with the Vietnamese citizens and society. Homes, villages, towns, and the life they knew was completely different and in ruins. “I was about twelve when the war ended. My parents were saving money to move to America and in 1982 we moved. My whole life was changed.”(Nguyen.) Many Vietnamese citizens became refugees and fled the country to get away from all the tension and harm that

Have you ever seen or been a refugee? Refugees are people who leave their country because of war. They have to move to a new location. They have to learn new language and thing to survive in a new country. Ha is a little girl that lived in South Vietnam. There was a war in South Vietnam and she was forced to leave her country. They have to move to another country and learn different language. They have to adapt the the new location and that might be hard because they don't know that language.

By the end of the Vietnam War in 1975 Americans believed that there are no winners, while the North Vietnamese believed that all Vietnamese were victors. Despite American attempts, with the help of the capitalist government of South Vietnamese, to take control of Vietnam and halt communism, at the end of the war the North Vietnam had total control over Vietnam. Thus it’s reasonable to say that the North Vietnamese were the victors because they gained their independence, peace and a Vietnam free of the foreign French, Japanese and American occupiers. America could have won the war but they were afraid of the cost of winning the Vietnam War, such as the lives of North Vietnamese. The Vietnam War was a costly and confusing war because nothing

n the 1960s as the United States became involved in the war in Vietnam, American society would change dramatically. Not many Americans understood why the United States wanted to be so heavily involved in Vietnam. As many young men were drafted into the war and American witnessed the horrific bombings and killings in Vietnam War, American views toward the war became pessimistic. At the same time, Music became a new form of protest that accompanied the antiwar movement across the United States. This paper will discuss how U.S in involvement in Vietnam led to massive demonstrations and how music became a representation of the feelings of many protesters.

Vietnam is situated in Southeast Asia on the eastern coast of the Indochinese peninsula. At over 2,000 miles in length, the coastline is surrounded on two sides by the smaller Gulfs of Tonkin and Thailand, and also the South China Sea. Neighboring countries include Cambodia, China, and Laos (Vietnam-Geography, n.d.). The landscape within Vietnam varies greatly depending on location and is comprised of mountains, hills, dense forests, deltas, and lowlands. The importance of the topography will come to fruition later on.

The target of this paper is to conduct an exploration comparing and contrasting the family/medical leave policies within the United States (U.S.) and Vietnam. Currently, our nation is experiencing longer work days than the majority of European countries (though less than Asian countries) (Top Universities). Additionally, the fundamental need of our nation’s workforce as it relates to work/life balance is a significant issue affecting all Americans amid considering the shift in the gender composition of the labor force late in the twentieth century. Consequently, the challenge of providing fair and equitable support of women as well as single parents in the workforce is steadily becoming a paramount concern for the masses. Moreover, the

The decolonization and nonviolent resistance of India showed other nationals that it was not impossible to stand up to an overpowering empire. This display of independence by India inspired many others within Asia and Africa. Yet one other factor seemed to illuminate light at the end of the tunnel for subjugated countries and that was the nonaligned strategy. This was a vow of neutrality to all others meaning, it would not get involved during times of war and sit back and let events unfold. That way they would not be pressured and/or influenced by warring nations.

Analysis: State and Revolution in Vietnam (Preface - too long, draw on specific points from 20s to US involvement)

Each country has specific characteristics. However, some countries have similar culture with another country. To adapt to new surroundings is not easy for American teachers lived Vietnam, and they need to know some culture in Vietnam that students often have many conflicts with their non-native teachers. There are several values, assumptions, and customs in Vietnam that every American teacher has to know in order to avoid some arguments with Vietnamese students.

When I was in first grade my parents bought a local shop on Main street whose owners were retiring to Florida. As a first grader, I did not know the impact that would have on my life. I do not think my parents realized how life changing that decision would become. A normal childhood was not in the picture for me I soon realized as I hopped off my bike every time I saw the police officer walking down the sidewalk so he would not give me another warning… on top of the countless others, he had given me before. When I wasn’t out riding my bike I was stuck inside working with my mom. From an early age I learned the ropes of how to interact with costumers and by the third grade, I thought of myself as pretty business savvy as it got for a third grader at least.

With the government‘s financial adds, in my fifty plus, I still can go back to school. My brother now is an Electrical Engineer, married, and living comfortably in Florida. My daughter and her husband are also Electrical Engineers and living with their beautiful, lovely, bright daughter in Washington DC. If I did not have a change to leave Viet Nam and luckily arriving in the land of opportunities, I cannot imagine how my brother and I can survive in Viet

This paper presents two primary positions: (1) changes in the tourism accommodation sector in Vietnam since the beginning of the doi moi programme have been characterised and, to a certain extent, driven by the dynamic interactions between state-owned enterprises, foreign direct investment and domestic private operators in this sector, and (2) these changes are linked to the political, social and economic changes occurring in Vietnam within this period of transition. To articulate these positions in detail, the author has divided the development of Vietnam’s accommodation market since the beginning of doi moi in 1986 into five periods, each of which
