Health in Vietnam

Posted by vu on Wednesday, 2 March 2011 , under | comments (0)



A health care specialist from the U.S. Army examines a patient in Bac Ninh Province.

The overall quality of health in Vietnam is regarded as good, as reflected by 2005 estimates of life expectancy (70.61 years) and infant mortality (25.95 per 1,000 live births). However, malnutrition is still common in the provinces, and the life expectancy and infant mortality rates are stagnating. In 2001 government spending on health care corresponded to just 0.9 percent of gross domestic product (GDP). Government subsidies covered only about 20 percent of health care expenses, with the remaining 80 percent coming out of individuals’ own pockets.[1]
In 1954 the government in the North established a public health system that reached down to the hamlet level. After reunification in 1976, this system was extended to the South. Beginning in the late 1980s, the quality of health care began to decline as a result of budgetary constraints, a shift of responsibility to the provinces, and the introduction of charges. Inadequate funding has led to delays in planned upgrades to water supply and sewage systems. As a result, almost half the population has no access to clean water, a deficiency that promotes such infectious diseases as malaria, dengue fever, typhoid, and cholera. Inadequate funding also has contributed to a shortage of nurses, midwives, and hospital beds. In 2000 Vietnam had only 250,000 hospital beds, or 14.8 beds per 10,000 people, a very low ratio among Asian nations, according to the World Bank.[1]
Vietnam has made progress in combating malaria, for which the mortality rate declined sharply, to about 5 percent of the rate in the early 1990s, after the country introduced antimalarial drugs and treatment. However, tuberculosis (TB) cases are on the rise, with 57 deaths per day reported in May 2004. With an intensified vaccination program, better hygiene, and foreign assistance, Vietnam hopes to reduce sharply the number of TB cases and annual new TB infections.[1]
As of September 2005, Vietnam had diagnosed 101,291 human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) cases, of which 16,528 developed acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) and 9,554 died. But the actual number of HIV-positive individuals is estimated to be much higher. An average of 40–50 new infections are reported every day in Vietnam. Vietnam hopes to contain the HIV infection rate at the current official rate of 0.35 percent, which is about average worldwide, by limiting the disease as much as possible to sex workers and intravenous drug users. However, if the current trend continues, the number of infected persons could reach 1 million by 2010. One of the impediments to containing HIV/AIDS is that the victims face discrimination and stigmatization that are more severe than almost anywhere else in the world, according to a United Nations official. In June 2004, the Bush Administration announced that Vietnam would be one of 15 nations to receive funding as part of a US$15 billion global AIDS plan.

Haiphong detective – The haunted Hotel

Haiphong detective -
In the year 1860, the reputation of Doctor Wybrow as a London physician reached its highest point. It was reported on good authority that he was in receipt of one of the largest incomes derived from the practice of medicine in modern times.
One afternoon, towards the close of the London season, the Doctor had just taken his luncheon after a specially hard morning’s work in his consulting-room, and with a formidable list of visits to patients at their own houses to fill up the rest of his day– when the servant announced that a lady wished to speak to him.
‘Who is she?’ the Doctor asked. ‘A stranger?’
‘Yes, sir.’
‘I see no strangers out of consulting-hours. Tell her what the hours are, and send her away.’
‘I have told her, sir.’
‘Well?’
‘And she won’t go.’
‘Won’t go?’ The Doctor smiled as he repeated the words. He was a humourist in his way; and there was an absurd side to the situation which rather amused him. ‘Has this obstinate lady given you her name?’ he inquired.
‘No, sir. She refused to give any name–she said she wouldn’t keep you five minutes, and the matter was too important to wait till to-morrow. There she is in the consulting-room; and how to get her out again is more than I know.’
Doctor Wybrow considered for a moment. His knowledge of women (professionally speaking) rested on the ripe experience of more than thirty years; he had met with them in all their varieties– especially the variety which knows nothing of the value of time, and never hesitates at sheltering itself behind the privileges of its sex. A glance at his watch informed him that he must soon begin his rounds among the patients who were waiting for him at their own houses. He decided forthwith on taking the only wise course that was open under the circumstances. In other words, he decided on taking to flight.
‘Is the carriage at the door?’ he asked.
‘Yes, sir.’
‘Very well. Open the house-door for me without making any noise, and leave the lady in undisturbed possession of the consulting-room. When she gets tired of waiting, you know what to tell her. If she asks when I am expected to return, say that I dine at my club, and spend the evening at the theatre. Now then, softly, Thomas! If your shoes creak, I am a lost man.’
He noiselessly led the way into the hall, followed by the servant on tip-toe.
Did the lady in the consulting-room suspect him? or did Thomas’s shoes creak, and was her sense of hearing unusually keen? Whatever the explanation may be, the event that actually happened was beyond all doubt. Exactly as Doctor Wybrow passed his consulting-room, the door opened–the lady appeared on the threshold– and laid her hand on his arm.
‘I entreat you, sir, not to go away without letting me speak to you first.’
The accent was foreign; the tone was low and firm. Her fingers closed gently, and yet resolutely, on the Doctor’s arm.
Neither her language nor her action had the slightest effect in inclining him to grant her request. The influence that instantly stopped him, on the way to his carriage, was the silent influence of her face. The startling contrast between the corpse-like pallor of her complexion and the overpowering life and light, the glittering metallic brightness in her large black eyes, held him literally spell-bound. She was dressed in dark colours, with perfect taste; she was of middle height, and (apparently) of middle age–say a year or two over thirty. Her lower features–the nose, mouth, and chin– possessed the fineness and delicacy of form which is oftener seen among women of foreign races than among women of English birth. She was unquestionably a handsome person–with the one serious drawback of her ghastly complexion, and with the less noticeable defect of a total want of tenderness in the expression of her eyes. Apart from his first emotion of surprise, the feeling she produced in the Doctor may be described as an overpowering feeling of professional curiosity. The case might prove to be something entirely new in his professional experience. ‘It looks like it,’ he thought; ‘and it’s worth waiting for.’

Those who go to a detective office all have infinite suspicions and worries. Then they will have all types of reactions to show their happiness, anger, love or hate when their doubts such as husbands/wives’ affairs, frauds in business contracts are detected to be true. Even in cases of spoilt, motorcycle-racing or abroad studying children, their parents need detectives’ intervention.
Four days ago, Viet-Detection and Trading co., Ltd (VDT) on Thai Ha street, majoring in seeking information, succeeded in a peculiar civil case.
On a sunny noon, Ms Huong, an over 40-year-old woman, went to the office of the company and asked for family advice breathlessly. Her husband is doctor Binh, a deputy director of a hospital. She realized that he had some extraordinary changes, which made her have a feeling of his affairs. Therefore, she had detectives to provide her evidences of suspicions.
The detective work was implemented right after the order. For the first days of following the doctor, detectives only observed that he was busy with his work of being on duty, operating of directing on-the-job trainees. However, 3 days later, he made a phone call to inform a night duty. At 11pm, he drove towards Ha Dong bridge, picked up a young girl and took her to have a night meal. Saying goodbye after the night date, she cried on his shoulder. Then he took her to her renting house with caressing and consoling manners.
At 2 am the next day, on one another night duty, he lied not to go home and continued picking the girl on Nguyen Trai street, Thanh Xuan district. After a night meal, they got into a rest house.
Detecting such exact information, a wife usually goes to the place where the girl lives to make a scene of jealousy. However, in stead of doing it, Ms Huong only asked her younger sister to meet and warn the girl about their affair relations. Eventually, the girl confessed that she was the last-year student of Hanoi Medical University sent to Binh’s hospital as an on-the-job trainee. She had intention to work there after graduation, so she seduced Binh in exchange for a position in the big hospital.
Sympathizing with the girl’s situation, together with her wide relations, Huong promised to find the girl another job and asked her not to get in touch with her husband any more.
Here is the case of a rich and powerful family with an 11th-form son. The family was so rich that everyday the son stole 2-3 millions VND to go out with friends but his parents did not know. When they detected the truth, he started to be addicted to heroin. After 6 months working as his intimate friends along with the belief of the clients, detectives were asked to go to Singapore with the boy in order to care and urge him to study.
There was a case in which the son was too naughty and stubborn for detectives to make friends with. Knowing that he was interested in playing game, a detective pretended to be a gamer and played against him. Finally, the detective won. Admiring the gamer, the son called the detective “Master” and called himself “Disciple” in order to continue game-online competitions. Since then, he obeyed the detective’s instruction and observation.
This is the story of a couple who left their hometown for Ha Noi to establish their business from nothing. Thanks to their laboriousness and agility, they had owned a famous beer restaurant in Hanoi for 10 years. However, Mr. Hai realized that his wife had changed a lot for 10 years. Moreover, his daughter sometimes told him that she saw her mother going out with a younger man intimately. He did not believe his wife had an affair; however, his greater and greater suspicion led him to ask detectives to uncover facts.
Only after over 3 days of investigations, detectives proved the spouse’s infidelity exactly. Three days later, Hai got information that she had been cheating on him for nearly 10 years. Her affair partner, who seemed to have the same age as his last-born brother, was one of the trouble-makers at his restaurant 10 years ago. When the restaurant was just opened, a group of 5-6 youths often went there to drink beer, stirred up, owed and made troubles. Thanks to his wife’s arrangement, everything was ok. He could not think of her affair with the guy. However, after discovering the painful truth, what surprised him more was the fact that his wife changed all asserts to be under her name secretly. This led him suddenly to have nothing left.
In a case, a man named Quang, the officer of electricity department, was crying right after discovering his wife’s affairs. Being absorbed in his career, when he got a dignity, he was too old to get married. However, finally, he got married with a quite young woman. Since his wife was first pregnant, he asked a doctor as well as his close friend to take care of her at home.
For 2 years after giving birth, his wife had done the housework and cared him and their child carefully. Nevertheless, he suddenly had a feeling of her affairs because she did everything too carefully. He suspected and decided to hire detectives to observe her. On the first day, she still went to the market, cooked meals and went to work in a hurry. At noon, she saw a man at a café in front of her office. After a while, she went home. Keeping on surveillance for a week, detectives confirmed that she had an affair partner exactly. Although they did not see each other frequently, their love seemed to be quite deep. However, his wife’s lover was his close friend as well as the doctor who he paid a lot of money to care his wife during her pregnancy, which made him unbelievable.
For detectives, information investigations often end after 1 or 2 weeks. But in order to have exact information to supply their clients, they must have worked seriously and strictly. Detective companies will use proper methods to get information, which depends on the hobbies of the subjects that clients ask to conduct surveillance. In spire of the fact that detectives have not worked in all fields and are not criminal spies as well, they are versatile, agile and intelligent in situation-settlement, which are also basic qualities of detectives. They will be able to convert fixed things into changing things. Sometimes they are like free people wandering along streets more than at home, even many nights they must wander over night outside. Nevertheless, for them, detective work is risky but interesting.

Vietnamse Detective Vietnam Investigator – History of detective in vietnam: Ancestor of Vietnamse Detective

Posted by vu on Friday, 25 February 2011 , under | comments (0)




According to old documents, one of the 1st detectives in Vietnam was Mr. Le Van Luong with his private detective office at 109A Pasteur, Old Saigon named “Lelion Lefort Agency” since 1962.
Mr Nguyen Huu Vinh, director of V- Protection & Investigation Co; Ltd, provided us a address and we went to Luong’s hometown in Kim Thuong hamlet, Kim Binh village, Kim Bang (Ha Nam).
It was the address of Mrs. Tam, teacher Chinh’s mother. A girl took us to a house with the flower-covered gate and said: “It’s Tam’s house”. An old woman opened the gate, taking us through a slope-opposite brick road to an unusual, quiet simple small house. On the right of outdated furniture with only a tea-set above was a mosquito net- lowered bed, which seemed to be so quiet that we felt compassion. The old woman slightly called towards the net: “Mum, we have guest”.
The net shook gently and a rawboned small great-grandmother tremblingly pulled it up. She looked at us with her dim eyes, trying to show her joyfulness. Going with me was the old journalist Thuan Giang, a friend of her child. He said: “This is Luong’s 1st wife, Mrs. Le Thi Tam”.
Today is the anniversary of Luong’s death. On the altar was the posthumous picture of an over 70-year-old hale, hearty and imposing man. His square face, large mouth, high forehead and hoary hair showed his valiant and vicissitudes of life as he was young. Next to his altar was his honorary degree of Doctor issued by Los Angeles University. We lighted incense for him and listened to stories of his life.
Le Van Luong was born in 1913 in a family of Confucian tradition. At the age of 17, he got married with Mrs. Le Thi Tam, who lived in the same village but hamlet as him. She was at the same age as him and was the most beautiful in the region. Luong worked as a teacher and his wife tilled the field and weaved. Their life was as quiet as ramparts of bamboo in the autumn. However, ambition was always full in blood vessel of the young man.
After that, Luong left his hometown as well as his wife for Hanoi to study and got acquainted with a beautiful, aristocratic and well-studied girl Tuong Vi of noble blood. Her brother was just King Bao Dai. The two had a congenial companion so Luong took Tuong Vi to his hometown and celebrated their wedding against the family’s objection.
Living in Hanoi for a period of time, he worked as a teacher at Vinh Quoc Hoc high school and then Hue Quoc Hoc high school. In spite of adventurous and amorous blood, Luong never sank into music and women but always studied, researched and desired to stretch himself.
In Saigon, he got married to two other wives. The 4th named Nhieu lived in Ky Dong so she was called “Tu Ky Dong” (4th Ky Dong). At that time, he was proficient in 5 languages: English, French, Chinese, Japanese and Russian and had many degrees of Law, Economics and Kung fu.
He took the two children of the 1st wife to Saigon to live together with him but he was arrested by France-close government because of ever teaching Japanese. Released from prison with a broken family, he did many jobs and succeeded the most in the job as a lawyer of his own law advisory office. He usually went to Hong Kong to study about detective work.
In 1962, he opened the most famous private detective office in Saigon and became one of those who seized much business and competition information of businessmen and politicians of quisling regime.
According to what Thuan Giang told, in Saigon the most magnificent building at No109A Pasteur resided by many households was then sold to a boss at the price of 300 gold taels. The boss destroyed it and rebuilt a much more splendid building and suspended a plate “Lelion Lefort Agency” and a line of Vietnamese “V?n phòng thám t? t?”.
Everyone often saw a tall imposing man in Mercedes SE 280 car, one of three most luxurious cars on Saigon then, go out of and into that building. Owners of the two other luxurious cars are the French leader of a construction company and President Nguyen Van Thieu.
Thuan Giang said that Luong ever told him about his dream of becoming a detective. When he was small, he admired “Detective Le Phong” (Tham tu Le Phong) by The Lu. Detective Le Phong idol was engraved into the mind of the richly enthusiastic, intelligent and errant guy and he made his dream come true when possible. The name of his office “Lelion Lefort Agency” meant “Le Luong – Le Phong Agency”.
His aspiration was known by little people; however, his eldest son of his eldest son opened a business store on Hoang Hoa Tham street, Hanoi, named “Le Phong” Store.
