I heard that vietnamese ladies are the 1st to go for war. 1st and 2nd world war there are not ladies involved. So they know how to use machine gun well

The viet do not say WELCUM... they follow the Chinese saying or mei shi mei shi... {no issue, no issue} so they say "kg co gi!"

Yeah, some vn sentences/words do not have direct english translation. Or you can try to reply using this:
1) k co chi
2) co gi dau
3) k co sao

Interestingly, 'khong co chi' is what i wanted to ask about coz i have seen someone saying 'khong cua chi' which also makes sense because cua chi sounds like ke chi in chinese.

Can someone confirm?

3) k co sao

khong co chi = never mind
co gi dau = its does not matter
khong co sao = there's no reason why

technically sound the same but carry different weightage. the english part is the best I can co-relate too.

hopes this helps.

Take note if your ban gai or BX is buying iphone 4 in vn...........

iPhone 4 CDMA “in disgrace” in Vietnam
===============================================

VietNamNet Bridge – While in the US, Verizon is attracting hi-tech players with CDMA-based iPhone 4s, in Vietnam, the product still cannot grab the attention of mobile connoisseurs.


iPhone 4 CDMA not the choice of Vietnamese players

Hoang Hai, a hi-tech product trader, said he regretted purchasing 10 iPhone 4s from the US, because the products, which were carried to Vietnam across the border by travelers, remain unsellable.

Hai said he once hoped the deal would bring fat profit, because iPhone 4 CDMA have been selling very well in the US. However, the hope has not come true: at first, he intended to sell the products at 12 million dong per product. However, he still cannot sell anything even though he has slashed the sale price to 10 million dong.

The noteworthy thing is that while iPhone 4s that run on CDMA technology, still cannot catch the attention from the public, other iPhone 4 which run on GMS technology, are selling nonstop, despite high prices at 16 million dong.


Why is CDMA technology is less favored in Vietnam remains a question to be answered.

“I made a wrong move when deciding to trade CDMA based iPhone 4. The problem is that the iPhone 4 CDMA cannot be unlocked in Vietnam, so that users can use normal functions like making calls and receiving calls,” he said.

As the iPhone 4s do not have SIM slots for SIM Gevey, it is just considered an iPod Touch with good camera and an additional function of GPS (global positioning system).

In principle, there are also CDMA technology based networks in Vietnam, including the one by S-Fone. However, hi-tech product players said that even though the iPhone 4 can be unlocked to use S-Fone services, the weak network of S-Fone, plus dropped calls when using the iPhone 4 both would make the iPhone 4 useful only for playing games or listening to music.

Even for GSM-based iPhone 4s, experts also still cannot find effective tools to unlock it in order to allow users to use original SIM.


iPhone 4 CDMA cannot be used in Vietnam

All the experts whom VietNamNet contacted to ask about CDMA based iPhone 4 all said they believe that it is impossible for iPhone 4 CDMA to run on S-Fone network infrastructure.

They said that it is even very difficult deal with unlocked iPhones, let alone locked iPhone 4 CDMA with no SIM slot. These characteristics of iPhone 4 would be a big barrier for technicians.

It is clear that iPhone 4 CDMA will not be imported through the official channel and distributed in Vietnam. The product has no future in Vietnam, analysts say.

However, they think that it would be a good idea if those people, who do not need to make and receive calls, but need the products as entertainment devices, use iPhone 4 CDMA instead of iPod Touch.

With powerful configuration, beautiful screen, the camera with high resolution and GPS, it would be not a bad idea to spend 10 million dong to buy an iPhone 4 CDMA, if noting that an iPod Touch is worth 6.5 million dong already.

The iPhone 4 has been available in Vietnam since last June, and has been selling very well.
