Every northerners would want to associate themselves with prosperous capital, Hanoi, and southerners with cosmopolitan commercial capital Saigon. All scales down to face value and not being branded as country pumpkins from a far flung provinces never heard of. If you can converse in Viet, deep talk, she feels comfy, the truth will be out. I had seen an ah siao sillyporean, claimed to be from Bukit Timah-Holland, actual fact, Jln Teck Whye. Tested him further Bukit timah where? Riflerange rd? Swiss ave? Binjai park, oei tiong ham rd, gallop park? Farrer rd? 1st-6th Ave? He backed off and gave in the truth. Likewise. So basically just 'cornered' her as i got a hanoi as an answer at first. Em oi, majority of hanoites, 60% are economy migrants, so you from nearby provinces? Vinh Phuc (L18H34G12)?, Hai Phong?, Hai Doang? Bac Ninh (ex.G32)? Bac Giang? Sonla? Quang Ninh? Dien Bien? Lao Cai(G66)? Lang son? Hung Yen(L18G34G17, vodka production town of My Hao District)?..she gave in..ok ok..yen bai, am an ethnic minority, Tay not the usual majority indigenous Viet Kinhs..bingo. love geography!
