作为华裔越南人，生活在越南是什么感觉？

Tuan Khang Tran
Pretty uneventful, judging from my friends’ lives. They live just like other Vietnamese, face the same problems, do the same things. Like Vietnamese, their life is affected by how much money they or their family have.
To give an example of a Hoa in Vietnam. Meet Ông Cao Thắng.
从我朋友的生活来看，是平平无奇的。他们和其他越南人一样生活，面对同样的问题，做同样的事情。他们和越南人一样，都会受到自己或家庭经济水平的影响。
举一个越南华族人的例子，这是翁高胜。


His family owns a famous cement company. He alternates between making music (mostly for fun because he can't sing to save his life) and working in the family business.
He just married a well-known Vietnamese singer - Đông Nhi. They just travelled to Russia for holiday
他的家族经营着一家知名的水泥公司。他偶尔创作音乐(主要是出于兴趣爱好，因为他不能通过唱歌来维持生计)，也会在家族企业工作。
他刚刚与越南著名歌手东儿结婚。他们刚去俄罗斯度假了。





What is his life like? I would say quite fun but nothing extraordinary
Meet Trương Lệ Vân, nickname Amanda Baby
他的生活是怎样的？我想说很有趣，但也没有什么过于特别之处。
再来认识一下Trương lnguyen，她还有个昵称Amanda Baby


Who is she? A rich girl who likes to model and sing. She switches between modelling and making music. Though like Ông Cao Thắng (and many rich kids in Vietnam) cannot sing to save her life
她是谁呢？她是一个喜欢当模特，喜欢唱歌的富家女。她兼任模特和音乐创作。虽然像翁高胜(和许多越南富家子弟一样)不能唱歌来维持生计。



Although recently Amanda Baby had started to give business a try . She is now in charge of 3 cafes and a hotel given by her parents (who own various factories and businesses). Got to give her credit for that
尽管最近Amanda Baby开始尝试做生意。她现在运营三家咖啡馆和一家酒店，这是她父母(拥有多家工厂和企业)给她的。我得给她点个赞。

What is life like for Amanda? Probably like the Vietnamese version of Paris Hilton. Pretty fun and hectic
In general, what is it like to be a Chinese in Vietnam?
Depends on your money, status and personal network, you live pretty much just like any other Vietnamese person in the same circumstance as you.

Amanda的生活是怎样的呢？也许可以算是越南版的帕丽斯·希尔顿吧。非常有趣，也很忙碌。
一般来说，作为一个中国人，在越南生活会是什么样的？
这要取决于你的财富、地位和人际网络了，你和其他越南人一样，都生活在同样的环境中。

It is very easy for aChinese immigrant in Vietnam to become local person:
1/ accept the VN citizenship and follow HaNoi laws
2/ transcribe his or her name into Viet Quocngu letters: his or her name is always Chinese in Han characters but pronounced in Viet way
Viets and Chinese are cousins in language and culture, there is not discrimination, and better no more wars for territories in future
在越南，中国移民很容易成为当地人：
1 接受越南公民身份，遵守河内法律
2 将名字转译成越民族字母：他或她的名字还是用汉字书写，但用越南语发音
越南和中国在语言和文化上都是兄弟，没有歧视，希望未来不要再为领土而战了。

living in Vietnam as a Chinese-Vietnamese would differ widely from different Vietnamese generations. the older generation would probably just ignore you, but will treat you equally like an average human being. the middle-aged generation would be interested in you, and would like to learn more about you. however, most of them wouldn't have much opinion about you. the younger generation would admire you, some of the factors to this is that you, a Chinese-Vietnamese, have East Asian blood. additionally, they would tend to joke around with you but would also be polite.
作为一名生活在越南的华裔越南人，跟越南不同年纪的人交往有着很大的不同。老一辈人可能不会理会你，就像对待普通人一样。中年人可能会对你感兴趣，想要多了解你一些。但他们中的大多数人也不会对你有太多的看法。年轻人会羡慕你，其中一些因素是你作为华裔越南人，拥有东亚血统。此外，他们会和你开玩笑，但不失礼貌。

Like other people. There is no any tension between Hoa and King ethnics, both culture are similar. The best way to differentiate both ethnics is to look at their ID card
像其他人一样。华族和京族之间的关系一点儿也不紧张，两种文化十分相似。区分这两个民族的最好方法是查看他们的身份证。


Hoang Chau
I’m Chinese Vietnamese but not a Hoa (Chinese from southern China).
My parents came to HCMC , Vietnam from northern China (Henan , Chengdu) in 1986. And I was born in 1991. I can speak both Vietnamese and Mandarin Chinese.
I can say I’ve never been experienced racism or discrimination for 28 years of my life.
我是华裔越南人，但不是来自中国南方的中国人
我的父母于1986年从中国北方(河南、成都)来到越南胡志明市。我出生于1991年。我既会说越南语，也会说汉语。
我可以说，在我生命中的28年里，我从未经历过种族主义歧视的情况。

First , Overall ,Vietnamese never discriminate against Chinese , Second If you want know clearly about this question , You need to divide Chinese into 3 groups:
首先，总的来说，越南人从不歧视中国人，其次，如果你想清楚地了解这个问题，你必须把中国人分为三组：

-Group 1: Chinese living in Vietnam
=> They are considered as Vietnamese, they have full right as Vietnam have , free to do business, , have right to go Vietnam parliament & politics , have right to open Chinese school, free to celebrate Chinese festivals , have right to go military services ….
Chinese Vietnamese & Vietnamese together make Vietnam become a power country in Asia region , both Economics & Military , together working hard to make Vietnam better day by day.
Many Chinese ( Hoa people ) become heroes & famous Politics in Vietnam history , They have many successful Tycoon, Companies, Business in Vietnam ……. It’s too long so I will not write it here
#NAME?
他们被视为越南人，他们和越南人一样有充分的权利，可以自由做生意，也有权加入越南议会和政坛，有权开办中文学校，自由庆祝中国节日，有权服兵役....
华裔越南人和越南人一起，把越南建设成了亚洲地区的经济和军事强国，双方携手努力让越南一天比一天好。
许多中国人(华族)成为越南历史上的英雄和政治势力，他们中有许多成功的商业大亨、知名企业和生意.......太长了，我就不赘述了
-Group 2: Chinese in Hongkong ( cantonese ) , Taiwan, Malaysia , Singapore & over the world
=> they are treat normally as other foreigners, no discrimination against them
第二组：中国香港(广东人)、中国台湾、马来西亚、新加坡和世界各地的华人
他们和其他外国人一样享受同样的待遇，没有针对他们的歧视现象

-Group 3: Chinese living in China mainland,
=> these people have bad image on the world, especial Chinese mainland tourist They will be monitored when they put their legs into Vietnam, But Vietnamese dont have any reason to beat or make some difficult to them ,But if they dare to do something chaos & make Vietnam security under threat , they will be kicked out off Vietnam land

他们的国际形象不算好，尤其是来自中国大陆的游客。他们一脚踏入越南后就会被监视，但越南人不会随意殴打他们或给他们制造麻烦。不过如果他们胆敢制造混乱，威胁越南的国家安全，他们就会被赶出越南的土地。

I have it on good authority that there is no real enmity between the Chinese and Vietnamese. Many may not realise that many of the Vietnamese people as with Koreans, Japanese, Thais, Cambodians, Burmese and Laotians have roots from China.
That some Vietnamese people use the friction between the Chinese and Vietnamese governments as an excuse to cause rioting and destroying factories and places of production owned by foreigners must be the most unthinking and stupid acts of all.
中国和越南之间并没有真正的敌对。许多人可能没有意识到，许多越南人与韩国人、日本人、泰国人、柬埔寨人、缅甸人和老挝人一样，根都在中国。
有些越南人利用中国和越南政府之间的摩擦作为借口，引发骚乱，破坏外国人拥有的工厂和生产场所，这肯定是不妥和愚蠢的行为。

By so doing, they are cutting their noses to spite their faces as once the factories are destroyed, many Vietnamese workers become unemployed and it is not an easy task to find alternative employment.
I have heard the Vietnamese government ended up compensating the foreign owners and investors.
Double folly!
So what have such destruction achieve or prove?
I like to hear from some Vietnamese articulate the value of such rioting!!!
他们这么做只是在伤害自己，因为一旦工厂被摧毁，许多越南工人就会失业，很难找到其他工作。
我听说越南政府最终补偿了外国业主和投资者。
蠢不可及！
那么，这种破坏行为达到或证明了什么？
我想听听越南人解释一下这种骚乱的意义！！

You will be treated the same just like everyone else. It's very hard to tell a Chinese Vietnamese among pure Vietnamese anyways. My aunt is Chinese and her family follows Vietnamese customs and traditions even though sometimes they speak Chinese at home. I think it's also due to the fact that the culture of the two countries are not much different so Chinese Vietnamese can easily blend their traditions with Vietnamese'.
Recently there has been ongoing tension between Vietnam and China over border dispute, but I think most Vietnamese has hatred towards the Chinese and party, not the Chinese people themselves.Therefore, Chinese Vietnamese are pretty non-discriminated in Vietnam.
你会跟其他人一样，受到同等的对待。我们很难从越南人中分辨出华裔越南人。我阿姨是中国人，她的家人遵循越南的习俗和传统，只是有时候会在家里说中文。我认为这也是因为两国的文化没有太大不同，所以华裔越南人可以很容易地将他们的传统与越南的传统融合在一起，而不会像西方国家那样被注意到。
最近，越南和中国之间的边界争端持续紧张，但我认为大多数越南人只是对他们的政府有意见，对中国人民没有意见。所以，越南华人在越南不受歧视。


Tường Quyên
I don't know what to say but yet they still look at us half of their eyes in general. There are a few of bad stereotypes formed in their minds such as:
我不知道该说什么，但他们仍然撇着眼睛看我们。他们对我们有一些不好的刻板印象，比如：

We must be good at Maths or science subjects.
They must be careful with us because we would use any chance to cheat, fraud ...
Some jokes that I found pretty racism, especially the small eyes. Do I need to tell that nearly 8 in 10 Asian have small eyes?
They treat us like a betrayal
我们肯定很擅长数学或科学学科。
他们必须提防我们，因为我们会利用任何机会作弊、骗人……
我觉得有些笑话带有浓厚的种族主义色彩，尤其是小眼睛。需不需要由我来告诉你，近80%的亚洲人都有一对小眼睛吗？
他们把我们当成叛徒。

Although my friends treat me fine, I have always hearing this whenever I come across a crowd talking about which I mentioned above.
虽然我的朋友对我很好，但每当我遇到一群人谈论上述问题时，我总能听到这句话。


Thang Luu
Is it hard being Chinese Vietnamese in modern day Vietnam today?
在今天的越南，华裔越南人的境遇很艰难吗？

I don’t think Chinese Vietnamese in modern day Vietnam have too many differences with normal Vietnamese. I have 1 Chinese Vietnamese friend who was my classmate back in 2004–2009. I don’t know that he is a Chinese Vietnamese, up until he had to go to China for 1 week because the head of his clan died. He went to the same university as I did, he got the same kind of job I did in a big company, he married a Vietnamese girl. As far as I know, he doesn’t worry one bit about his Chinese origin.
But according to some Chinese Vietnamese in southern Vietnam I know, they did have some issues of their own:
我认为现代越南的华裔越南人和普通越南人并没有太多不同支出。我有一个朋友是华裔越南人，2004-2009年期间他是我的同学。我起初并不知道他是华裔越南人，直到他有一次必须回中国一周，因为他的宗族首领去世了。他和我上了同一所大学，他和我一样在大企业做类似的工作，他娶了一位越南女孩。在我看来，他一点也不担心自己的中国血统。
但据我认识的越南南部的一些华裔越南人说，他们确实有一些自己的问题：

They are pressured to learn Chinese language from their parents and grandparents
They are pressured to marry Chinese Vietnamese by their family
There are rumour that Chinese Vietnamese can’t work for the government, which is not true because my friend’s parents are member of Vietnamese Co unist Party and were mid level officers of precint level. Maybe they can’t become top level, but I am not sure about that.
他们被迫跟随父母和祖父母学习中文
他们迫于家人的压力嫁娶华裔越南人
有传言说华裔越南人不能进入政府部门工作，但这个说法是谣言，因为我朋友的父母就是越南成员，是区级中层官员。也许他们无法跻身高层，但我对此也不太确定。
