That normal, a lot of VB scare to lose face (mat mat). That I hate most. Once, went to 1 of my frds VB village in An Giang. His VB tell all her relatives that my friends is earning $200 a day. My friend doesn't speak good tieng viet ask me what is going on and I tell him. End up both quarrels when back to Hotel. They afraid to mat mat.
Thats their culture... money=face.
Who has money can order ppl around... who no money dun even dare to step inside the house of the rich even though is relative.
Share one story... my bx's uncle quite rich, marrying off his daughter. They never even invite his mother, meaning my grandmother-in-law. Even though she is in a small house next door.. i heard liao very angry. They even invited me how can not the elder? Thus i go there just give li xi then go next door eat with grandma.
