Both "Kinh" and "Y"

(Baonghean)- The monk eats blood pudding, drinks dog meat, drinks alcohol, swears, smokes tobacco, sings karaoke and apparently people see him living in the same "campus" as the nun.

- What are you doing, Dung?

- I'm writing… poetry!

- Uncle, don't be rash! Poetry is the wind, the moon, the flying storks, what is poetry? Ah, it is a world that cannot tolerate worldly people like you and me. Okay, uncle, please cover up your poetry and return to real life to summarize "this week's news" with everyone, okay?

- You still haven't stepped foot into the twenty-first century? It's just a little bit backward, Uncle Dang. Citizens can do everything that the law doesn't prohibit, you hear? Besides, with the responsibility of a village chief like me, if I also hold the position of poet, wouldn't that reduce the position of the commune's literary association by one position?

Decision to allow Hanoi University of Business and Technology to train in General Medicine and Pharmacy at university level

You should open your eyes and look at the Hanoi University of Business and Technology, which is actively developing a doctor training program. Who knows, maybe the University of Medicine will soon be producing a train driver who is also a musician! There is a newspaper that is running a multi-part report reflecting on the monk who presides over a pagoda with a “national relic certificate as big as a tray” (the abbot’s words) in a certain province. The monk eats blood pudding, drinks dog meat, drinks alcohol, swears, smokes tobacco, sings karaoke, and apparently people saw him living in the same “campus” with a nun. Don’t be so stingy! This is the era of “integration”, where animal husbandry and poetry intersect.

- “When was that?” Uncle Dung was planning to “plant banana trees” for language! If you let livestock farming run alongside poetry, I’m afraid the poetry clubs in our neighborhood will become “super lean”.

- You misunderstood! What I meant by “poetry” is “tolls”! Raising animals with poetry means raising animals with tolls! Do you know how many fees a chicken has to pay?

- No!

- Fourteen fees in total! Try to remember, it's equal to the number of times the Song Da pipeline "broke its water".

- Is the information that a certain University of Business and Technology conveniently brought in a curriculum that "jumped over the regulatory fence" to train doctors to contribute to the socialization of the medical career true or is it "your typo", village chief?

- What kind of error is that? The decision to “grant a license” effective from November 19, 2015 was written by Deputy Minister Bui Van Ga on white paper, black ink, blue signature and red seal still visible: “Allowing Hanoi University of Business and Technology to train university level, regular system in General Medicine, code: 52720101; Pharmacy, code: 52720401”. And let me add that even if a poor household has a 3-storey house like yours, don’t even dream of letting your child put a fishing buoy on this “first medicine, second pharmacy” brand chair. Listen carefully, the tuition fee is 50 million VND per year, including the time… summer vacation!

- What? 50 million? Isn't that a cutthroat medical training?

- I heard the vice principal just explain to the press that the investment capital for this field cannot be "affordable" like other fields. He also integrated medical ethics education so skillfully that he said: "Hiring a corpse for an internship is not cheap, it is not like a bunch of vegetables or fish...". To tell you the truth, hearing him say it "in its entirety" like that, I feel less sorry for the students and more heartache for the corpses. They, those corpses of course cannot be like a bunch of vegetables or fish, and they are also different from that respectable vice principal. They are dead but still have to lie on the operating table, for whom and for what? Why can "people" associate it with a bunch of vegetables or fish?

- Don't get emotional! This is not the time for emotion... hey. They must have seen that murders have been happening like clockwork for a long time now, but there hasn't been any promotion for renting human corpses, so they're... impatient.

- Okay, let's drop this topic. Now I ask you, if you could choose your gender, would you be a man or a woman?

- There is no need to use the word “if” anymore, great village chief! On the morning of November 21, the National Assembly just passed the law allowing individuals to re-identify their gender with an approval rate of 86.84%.

- So do people "press the button" for the "third gender"?

- Are you talking about people with “hermaphroditism”? Oh yeah, I haven’t read it yet. But I think, if it doesn’t exist yet, it will eventually exist! Anything that already exists in society will be regulated by law. For example, the story of the University of Business and Technology but it trains in medicine and pharmacy. If no one “grants a license”, why would anyone worry about buying a corpse that doesn’t “get a good price” like a fish or a bunch of vegetables! In short, it’s both “disgusting” and “healthy”, right? Oh, and since we’re talking about the “third gender”, I’d like to remind you that it’s not a “hermaphrodite” university!
