  • COMMIES SUCKS BIG TIME!

    As for the incident, it was the people that decided to cram each other on a small boat. It gets so crowded sometimes that if u just wait for your turn, you'l never get it. u have to "push".

    The owner dont give a fuck as they're only interested in maximising their profit which lead to this terrible incident. This is a sad reality of vietnam where health and safety standard regulation doesnt exist! Not on paper and not in the mind of the people.

  • what does this have to do with commies?those owners are locals themselve. the bankers don't really give a shit about us their only interested in profits.same shit .ppl are dying because of the damn bankers.

  • Common sense tells you that you cannot that many folks jammed in a small boat like sardines? If it was an ocean liner carrying foreign tourists, then the communist would have done all it could in advance because it fears bad publicity and negative public relations. The communist policy separates the rich from the poor, with the poor always losing out. That is the tragedy.

  • Communism is the same as socialism, except socialism is much more expected because it's got a better name and Clinton's face plastered all over it.

  • Yup wat you said is true I totally agree wit you on the other hand it's also the fault of the dumb citizens that has no common sense to their own safety they were so blind by hasty and the boat owner was blind wit greed. they all deserve to die.

  • I'm Vietnamese so this story is a sad one. But I imagine this same scenario in America- Black Friday morning.....4am.... to stores about to open. Walmart on one side of the lake, thousands of people on the other. The only thing that can take them over the lake is a small boat meant to carry 20. How many do you think would climb aboard to get to Walmart by 5am? That boat would sink to the bottom faster than you can say, "Titanic".

  • Accidents are bound to happen, but it sickens me to think that the boats, as with other forms of watercraft transportation in Vietnam, do not have stricter standards. Lives could have been saved if the communist have greater regulations to inspection these types of boats to ensure they are safe and seaworthy. Rather, these corrupt morons are content with the status quo because they see these types of inspections as costly and do not contribute to their bottom line.

  • neh neh

  • "The boat's owner and captain were detained for questioning"? If you're on a wooden boat, there is no "captain" there's just a guy who lets people on it after warning them it's probably going to crack in half and sink.

  • yea fucking.ppl need to think.i'm viet myself but seriously these ppl need to use their brain when they were still alive.are small boat like that damn

  • vietnam sponsered the khmer rouge which killed over 3 million cambodian civilians. no one answers to war crimes from that genocide. but a boat that kills 80 gets on the news. bs.

  • Tet seems to produce weird behavior. These poor people are victims of a very corrupt group of dictators. The society is unarmed and have no hope......

  • Why where there 80 people on a ten-person boat, though?! D:

  • Goes to show how much the communist thugs really cares about their citizens, especially the poor and the oppressed.

  • Where were the brave Vietnamese men to save the woman and children?

    They were busy saving their own asses. Cowards.

    One of the reasons we lost the war

  • American men wouldn't do it either. Cowards

  • welp...that's what happens when you overload a boat. there's an old saying: "you knew the job was dangerous when you took it" so it's their own fault and i'm not gonna feel sory for retarded irrational behavior

  • 80 people and it was designed for only 12?  Were they insane?

  • Comment removed

  • that is sad....

  • omg what a drama
