If you're developing a FOSS project, be aware of cryptobros trying to PR a tea.yml into it.

Yeah, I think the only thing I really believe about it is that it was a good move to decline the world bank's conditions for giving Vietnam a loan. Those conditions would have involved allowing international investors to buy land and speculate with food. I think having the ability to fix e.g. rice prices as a government can be very beneficial to a country.
But I don't want to have an illusory view of how things really are if that's also wrong.
@flying_sheep I'm with you on that. They protect their own land and economy and it's only now slowly opening up, they don't want foreign influence. On the other hand, that means they have total power over their citizens. Having prices dictated by government is cool except if you are the producer. And the prices are still going up anyway, and there is a huge risk regarding rice and climate change, that could have a serious effect in 10-20 years. But come visit, there are many great things too.
Thanks! Yeah, I've been there a few years ago and it was lovely. I definitely want to come again some time.
