[Vnbiz] Vietnam Airlines has been implicated in a moneylaundering racket

[Dzung Nguyen]

My dear enthusiastic and passionate brother Hoanh ;-) (and CACC)

Please define what's clean first. I guess in business there must be always
some tactics involved. Always someone is in more favour than the others (we
are human and we live with biases), be it this supplier, this son of the
director or this customer. Always something-which you never imagined you
would do when you were very young- needs to be done. Especially when the
border between right and wrong is so blur- blame the under-development
world or the legal system, whatever work for your self-protectionism. Or you
won't survive long, or you get beaten up.

You see, anh Hoanh, you're a lawyer, and you see the world a bit more
ideally. I don't believe that a 'really clean' organization exist, or at
least it's not necessarily needed to exist. Rather, the regulation and legal
system and people  need to have a clear line/border of what's relatively
clean, what's relatively acceptable. Exceed that level will be defined as
'dirty' (I'm thinking of the Competition Law, of the Enterprise Law, the
Investment Law and all sorts). And it will be a long way before the line can
be defined 'clearly' and we have a good punishment system in order to keep
people stay away from the line.

Don't forget humans have a lot of sins and they at some point in their life
will build up a self-protectionism system, so that all action will be
justified in their own minds. Without noone reminding (such as punishment of
the others, relatives etc), without a good education (so that people are
more aware of their action, of the morality and how their action will affect
lives of others) and good legal system, it's understandable why things have
happened the way it had happened. (this' purely psychological reasoning, not
a justification for anything, anyone though).

Just some thoughts, have a great day, you all,

Nguyễn Hồng Dung,
