    I don’t know much about Vietnam’s politics but this makes me wonder, maybe it’s an indication that the comprador elements were never purged after reunification but were left in power in some key areas, kind of like West Germany?

      Its more like they went much farther with economic “liberalization” than Deng and reintroduced a westbrained element into their society. Also weirdly liking americans too much, due to the historic sino-vietnamese enmity.
