  • wow, smart.

  • Great video but real short.

  • Some people have lived in the US for years and can not speak english as well as her.

  • @redultraman

    It is because, old dogs cannot learn new tricks. When you are 18 or older, it's harder to learn a new language. Especially if you weren't given education during your childhood years. Im amazed that she knows how to speak English that well. But it is because she is younger than the ones who are here.

  • wow see speak english well also looks like my friend in alaska

  • damn she spoke english better than me.

  • White people are cheap can even help to buy padau from the kids just want to take video but when they get to the Hmong village the Hmong get the white people free food white people are very cheap

  • @miracle6848 he could of at least buy that if he is asking them questions!.it really pisses me off.he cant try that here though.that padau was very pretty too

  • @miracle6848 and he didnt even answer her question when she asked for his name because he ask for her name first.it is so rude of him to do that to her.he doesnt care about her name being on the net but he is worried about his name being on the net.

    Thank you.

  • @chicco351 im hmong myself, there are many dif hmong stories. the one i was told was long ago long hmong ppl lived along side with the chinese people, but then somewhere somehow there was problems,and the hmong had a war/battle with the chinese ppl so they had to flea or be killed, which they then fled to the mountains of laos, thailand, and vietnam where they resided til around 1970's, when the vietnam war came along, the U.S. asked for help and in return would take hmong people back to America

  • shes cute and know english very well

    <3LadieLeeDuaja

  • Hey, I met her when I was in Sapa. she was 17 then though (last year, 2009). She is soooooo cool, she is the best person to talk to.

    Sapa is the best place ever!!!!!!! :D

  • dang shes good at english!! ehehe

  • Last year, near Sa Pa, I met a girl named Mai, she was 13, she could speak English as well as this girl!

    She was also a Black H'mong girl. I asked her how she learned to speak English, and she just shrugged and said, "English is easy"!!!! She also spoke her dialect, Vietnamese, and French!

    And who knows what else she could speak! When she found out I was Canadian, she switched from English to French!

    And it's not like she even went to school! It's amazing.

  • @travpoet They do say kids can pick up languages easier. How good was she in French? Amazing though.

  • where do they learn english from?

  • I want see her, she is good, hope she is going to college in Hanoi or somewhere.

  • yeah, and crazy. :D but very good friend

  • I'm gonna go marry her before they all do!!! (race to thailand) they live happily ever after.

  • They are all illiterate. They spend all day working. Even if you support them afterwards for their education, there will still be family problems, because they've lost their best learning years. It's not all poetry.

    better yet go read the dictionary.

  • Where do they learn English if they live in the mountains? Hmm...I'm Hmong-American and I didn't know that they were able to speak that well over there. Excellent!! =)

  • It's 1/millions that a young mountain hmong girl speak that well in English. I am proud and humble at the same time.

  • very strong English, most people here in USA doesn't speak that almost clear English. what a girl but these guys are rude. she ask if they will buy and the guy said no. how rude. she is only being kind to you because she wants to make money for her family so why not help her a little. she been nice and answering all of your question you dick white shit.

  • Smart/savvy 12 yo girl! She could have a career as a diplomat or international business person!

  • Wow her English is very good indeed.

  • English is universal if you speak english people will restpect you more ok. One time I was at Bankok airport in Thiland I spoke thai to the worker there they disrespected me but when I spoke English everybody took good care of me ok.They helped me carry my bags.

  • Why english speakers appreciate others only when they speak english?

  • DAMN she can speak english better than some people here in the USA...........

  • comment|| not to be mean and shit

    but who ever the guy is, you are so

    damn rude; you talk to them and

    they ask for you to buy it and you

    refuse too, if i was them i'll refuse

    to talk to you too shit. "no i'm not gonna

    buy it" wtf!?!?!? what kinda answer is that??

    fucken rude as hell. buy it to be nice or whatever shssssssss!!! if i was them i'll refuse to talk to you cause you refuse to buy my shit. sorry speaking of truth.

    but i so love her; she speak english

    so will, you go girl.

  • i know what you mean, she is only speaking to them so they will buy her item but the camera guy said now. how rude. I wouldn't speak to them but since they are white she just trying to make money for her family. you heard she said mom not working only me. what a strong young girl. If it was me I would buy whatever she had just to show that being nice always repay back with goods. will I hope and wish her to get more customer as how nice and kind she was.

  • is this an american white guy or hmong guy taping these...?

  • i believed he is white.

  • She doesn't look like Hmong (I don't say she is not) she looks more like Akha.

  • Oh, she looks real Hmong to me.

  • she is pure hmong..don't you know your own kind. she is black hmong from vietnam. if you are black hmong then your great grand ma wear the same clothing or similar. most of the black hmong in laos and the USA came from north vietnam.

  • Don't you understand english??? I'm NOT Hmong I'm Chinese from Vietnam. And I NEVER've said she is not a Hmong, just she does look like Akha or Lisu. It's just my opinion by the way.

  • you talki about me....no me no eng-lish. your nick chong is more like hmong name that's why i thought you are a hmong. Hmong is part of Miao. the girl in the video is belong to Miao/Hmong ethic group. She speaks the western miao(Yunnan and Sichuan area in China) dialect.

  • Wow such great english !!! =)

  • BUY THE DAMN BLANKET SON! DAMN.

  • I hope she´s doing fine and will find

    a way to make a living. It´s not easy for

    them, cause Thailand government threatens

    them with deportation to Laos, where they

    are hunted, tortured and murdered like

    animals.

    I really feel for this cute and inteligent girl.

  • wtf wtf....i can't believed this video....wow

  • cool...

  • pretty good n english

  • wow.. pretty good english..

  • that guy didnt buy anything, but hecka questioned the english out of her. psk. you go girl!!! dang! she's good.

  • so true!

  • wow.

  • Adequate command of the English language, even more than some Caucasian here in the United States. The interviewer was being an ass though, she asked his name after giving hers and he never bothered to answered only storm her with question.

  • dam she smart

  • She is so cute! She is too young to work! Poor girl! A little bit cleaner, little bit make up. She would beat Brenda Song! Ha ha Just kidding!

  • Her english is very good giving that fact she didn't go to school to learn english. She learned from tourist...and she can communicate with the tourists that's something that we in america probably couldn't complished.

  • I don't think she learnt that good english with tourists. There is for sure some missionary around that teach them english. I even met Akha people in Thailand who were able to speak proper french due to a ctholic french church in the mountains.

  • Aren't the communists regime from both sides (Laos/Vietnam) are continuing with the extermination of these people deep in to the jungles?

  • ABSOLUTLY NOT

  • Don't really like the comment since I'm Hmong also, but in a way, it's somewhat true. Just being real, some are still okay though. But I've seen some of them do some real dirt.

  • wat kinda cheap mother fucker is this camara kid... take all that time to do shit and didnt even bother to buy something... if i was the gurl... "if u no buy, get the fuck out of my face!"

  • he may have reasons why he didn't buy it. when i went to s.e. asia, if you buy from one person, you have to buy from everyone else. and, even if you have bought from someone already, he/she may also make you buy more, more than enough.

  • wow this is a smart grl haha not really tho hehe

  • WTF? Her Egnlish probly better than a bunch of VNese in popular cities =\

  • Dowee89, do you know why? She is a pure human being. She knows well about happy life of the American Hmongs. She knows people move to Sam-neua, Laos and then to Thailand in the hope going to America. This interview is checking about that. How many Chinese Hmongs looking for similar hope. Finally, Laos will be blamed for not so hospitable.
