Wrong

The story goes that a husband, after a long business trip, returned home and suddenly pulled his wife out to praise her, exclaiming: “Oh, beautiful wife. You are truly wonderful, you have moved me so much. I have only been away for a month and you have transformed our beloved home so dramatically. This is modernization, of course.” The wife did not understand anything so she asked again: “What?” The husband, still not over his excitement, continued to praise: “Well, for example, the bathroom. It is so beautiful and modern. It is clean, cool, and the lights automatically turn on when the door is opened and closed, so classy. I sat there all day and did not want to go out anymore.” The wife heard that and shouted: “Oh my God, there is "soy sauce" in my newly bought refrigerator.”

Of course, that's a lie. Only a crazy person would mistake the refrigerator for a toilet. Before discussing this human behavior, let me talk a little about this delicate story of animals. Don't be too quick to underestimate it, for animals, choosing where to put their heads is not haphazard at all. Anyone who has ever herded buffaloes knows that the "model" buffaloes try to pee in their pens, and even in that cramped pen, no matter how clumsy they are, they will still choose a corner to prioritize the "difficult" part. In some special cases, when they can't pee in their pens, the buffaloes, which are known to be stupid, will also choose a familiar spot on the road to stop and use as their "makeshift toilet". The same goes for pigs, even though they are confined to a less-than-clean pen, they will still choose for themselves a "corner of their thoughts". That is an animal, a languageless, uneducated species that doesn't dye their hair, trim their eyebrows, or tattoo their lips!

Now, coming to humans, it is interesting that personal hygiene is honored by the people to be ranked among the four pleasures, which is not a light favor. For humans, it is a completely different story. Solving that problem for humans is not simply a physiological activity in the excretory process of living organisms. The act of throwing a toothpick out of the mouth also shows the cultural background of the individual, and by extension, of the community, let alone that matter! However, it is incomprehensible, it is unbelievable that in the middle of this week, in the middle of the capital, there are two women with bright faces, noble and elegant figures, not mentally ill, but actively "sex" openly in the elevator of an apartment building! Believe it, it is true! Thank God, there is a camera recording clearly. Watching the clip again, I feel choked by the "sleaze" of that culturally retarded person. Using a hat to cover the camera, then pulling down his pants to pee. Sorry, but I have to praise her for her timing! 26 seconds, no more, no less, to quickly expel that polluted liquid from her body. Just as she finished that furtive act, the elevator door opened. Oh my, if the elevator door had opened just a second earlier, that mess would have come out. Oh my god!

There is no justification for this perverted behavior. On the internet, people are throwing stones and it doesn’t take 24 hours for netizens to dig up the “owner’s” Facebook page and ask for punishment. The stones keep pouring in the same direction. Here and there, a few people act superior and advise like: “She is a woman, she can’t stand it, please understand. It’s just a bucket of water, why make such a fuss with the fragile sisters”. Listening to the keyboard teach makes my stomach ache!

Some “vulture” Facebookers even awkwardly danced around to justify that the two women were… mistaken! Then called for a break and to think about bigger things. Oh my god, you haven’t even solved the small things yet, how can you think about the big things! Don’t use compassion to protect the filth. Don’t try to ennoble yourself by considering the surroundings as straw. It’s small but it is civilized, and civilization seems to be one of the indicators reflecting the development of society. Sir, that behavior is not small. It reflects the miserable, irresponsible culture of a group of people who are parasitizing and hiding in the community. A dead rat is secretly thrown out on the street. A handful of sugarcane pulp, after chewing and swallowing the juice, is also found to roll down the window and thrown out the car window. You yourself try every way to be clean and fragrant, but you blatantly throw out all the unpleasant things. Living insensitively, unconsciously, irresponsibly, even cruelly like that is a small thing, so when will it become a big thing?

The difference in protecting living space is not only infrastructure but also human awareness. We Vietnamese still seriously lack community awareness. We only exploit the community to nurture ourselves, but how many do the opposite? Last year, a video clip went viral showing Westerners wading through ditches to collect trash voluntarily in the middle of the city, while Vietnamese people stood on the shore to watch, laugh and point. Yet a duck truck that had overturned knew how to rush out and compete to steal it for meat. After eating a candy, they threw the wrapper on the sidewalk, even though the trash can was only a few steps away. Why? Because the sidewalk is not theirs, that's all. Why are netizens so mad about urinating in the elevator? The reckless behavior of the two women in the elevator was the last straw, reflecting that strange lifestyle. Using an obstacle to cover the camera's eyes proves that they are not confused. The coordinated movements between the two main characters make it very likely that this is not the first time. Even holding your pee to pee in the elevator is considered an act of vandalism. It should be strongly condemned. They are not wrong, perhaps nature was wrong in creating them. That is the first story.

The second hot story of the week is the case of a famous Vietnamese TV manufacturing company with the slogan "Peak of Japanese technology" that was just discovered to have at least (let me emphasize at least) 70% of its components imported from China. So clearly, the thick collection of awards, the pride of the Vietnamese brand and the ambition of "Reaching the world" of the young boss collapsed before a painful truth was exposed. Nothing was produced, only imported, bought, assembled and labeled for sale. Cheating on the trust of customers and the reputation of the country. For many years, customers and even those who had not yet become customers poured out all their love on the basis of one wrong word! The Prime Minister has asked ministries and branches (including the Ministry of Public Security) to get involved.

The sudden fall of a Vietnamese brand is a great loss, but what really hurts society is trust. Always being praised with great fanfare like "Khai Siu", like Asanzo, like Alibaba and then collapsing, in a split second to the bottom of hell like that, who is still foolish and patient enough to believe in Vietnamese brands? Vietnam Television immediately removed the name of the "Shark" director from the "Investment Council" of an extremely hot reality TV show. Wrong trust, wrong love, wrong idol, wrong support... everything is wrong, only the lies are real! Suddenly thinking of Vietnamese cars, Vietnamese noodle packages, Vietnamese coffee cups and thousands of other brands. The pace of the market is still bustling and proud. Hopefully the recent "goat head dog meat" stories will be a set of lessons for Vietnamese businesses to recognize the right side of the path. On the consumer side, perhaps we also need to have a more tolerant, sympathetic and supportive view. We do not miss out, but we also should not kill… by mistake!
