Jesus,
“Talented man, beautiful woman”.
An old prejudice.
The inside of man
and the outside of woman
are valid.
Everyone agrees.
And what about “talented woman, beautiful man”? Continue reading Prayer 486

Courage to believe
Last time in Hanoi, I met a new dear friend, and I liked the girl a lot. She is young and an inspiring sign-language interpreter. I wanted to give her two good books that I contributed a little to the writing since the author of those books is my teacher and my friend. So we found a chance to meet in a coffee shop but to try a new kind of beer (with egg) that she suggested. Continue reading Courage to believe
Discovering the Causes of Cleft – Nguyên nhân sứt môi/hở hàm ếch ở trẻ em
Operationsmile The highest rates occur in Southeast Asia
Editor’s Note: The Philippines holds a special place in the history – and future – of our organization. It was there that Dr. Bill Magee, a plastic surgeon, and his wife Kathy, a nurse and clinical social worker, became inspired to create Operation Smile after witnessing firsthand the dire need for life-changing cleft surgeries while working an independent volunteer medical mission in 1982. Unable to provide surgery for so many children due to lack of resources, the Magees promised to return. We’ve been going back ever since. As we work into our 35th year, we’re highlighting the birthplace of Operation Smile with this four-story series. This story is the first of a two-part feature on the International Family Study.

Higher Education in Vietnam

ACCESS WES WEBINAR ARCHIVE: “EDUCATION IN VIETNAM”
Enrollment at the tertiary level has grown dramatically in Vietnam over the last decade, with the national gross enrollment ratio (college enrollment as a percentage of the total college-age population) rising from 10 percent in 2000 to 16 percent in 2005, and 25 percent last year, according to data from the UNESCO Institute of Statistics. However, the system faces a raft of challenges in responding to the employment needs of Vietnam’s growing economy, especially as it seeks to climb the value chain away from a focus on low-wage manufacturing towards modern industry and innovation.

The sharing economy isn’t about sharing at all
JANUARY 28, 2015
The sharing economy has been widely hailed as a major growth sector, by sources ranging from Fortune magazine to President Obama. It has disrupted mature industries, such as hotels and automotives, by providing consumers with convenient and cost efficient access to resources without the financial, emotional, or social burdens of ownership. But the sharing economy isn’t really a “sharing” economy at all; it’s an access economy.

Vietnam Mass Protests Expose Hanoi’s China Dilemma
June 21, 2018
The protests highlight the difficulties in embracing Chinese investment while defending Vietnamese independence.
By Tom Fawthrop
The huge nationwide protests that rocked Vietnam last week have highlighted Hanoi’s headaches in dealing with China, both as a hostile power in the South China Sea and as a key trading partner and economic investor.
The history of Vietnam-China relations is steeped in a thousand years of Chinese colonization, conflict, and rebellion. The last Chinese invasion was a two-month border war in 1979.
Prayer 481
Jesus,
Before knowing you,
I thought my sadness that was a real thing.
So when the sadness came,
I was often sad for many days,
many months
and many years. Continue reading Prayer 481
