Rent and electricity increase by MarkinNam
Hi all, is anyone seeing huge increases in these areas? Eg; $550/ month to $750/ month AUD.
@MarkinNam I'm not sure exactly what you got there. It'd be more useful if you knew the electric bill in vnd. We were paying 3500 vnd/kwh, then 3800 but now everyone is charging 4000 vnd/kwh which is a 14% difference. The most recent increase in ... Read More

Sounds like you need to have a serious discussion with your wife. My wife is the one that puts the kibash on that nonsense. Wealthy viets are arrogant abusers. They are playing a dominance game with you. They probably laugh about how easily they can ... Read More
