Title states all, Vietnam is a country that fought for it's independence, fought off multiple invaders including 2 industrialized western superpower nations, and now is one of the fastest growing economies in East Asia and is generally speaking seen as a positive nation on the global stage, without all of the baggage that China or North Korea carry. Obviously this is an abridged understanding of Vietnam but on paper it looks good, unless there's some brave posters willing to tell me otherwise?

    without all of the baggage that China or North Korea carry.

    Do you consider being a military vassal of the US to be "baggage"?

    No "socialist" state should be receiving $150 million in US military funding, or hosting 2 US aircraft carrier visits in 2 years.
