Thank you for providing this interesting story taking place in Vietnam. Please keep us up to date as this fraud unfolds. Great information as always Ken! 👍

It all boil down to one word. GREED. It has blinded her senses and everyone related to this scandal. Who would argue with money. The more the better. It was never enough for her.

Before this informative video, my wife (Vietnamese) mentioned this caper to me from her channel that she subscribes to. Now it is crystal clear to me, thanks to you, Duong. I will be looking forward to continued updates here. Keep us posted.

Wow , that’s excellent reporting ! Can’t wait to see whats next😱😱🙃

Enjoy understanding the story banking in Vietnam. Please make more of this videos. Thank you

Unfortunately it’s a moral issue that’s more common in developing countries. Even the U.S. still have bank run left and right, Silicon Valley bank for example. However, over time, Vietnam regulators will be able to do better job, just like the U.S. banking regulators. When a country opens up for foreign investors, some of them will fail because of the inherent risks of doing businesses (anywhere). Vietnam is a great investment market opportunities if not the best. Thanks Ken for bringing up transparency on ground for us all.

Clear and straighforward. Thank you for sharing these insights Anh 🙏

Greed is too lightly a word to describe Lan. She is lavishly savage with unlimited thirst for money. Now, she's found guilty, and so with her minions, and sentenced to death. A painful lesson for Vietnam to put a more stringent banking regulations. How to fight conspiracy is the key. Thanks to your fully informative video😅

The story cannot be told by Hollywood producer. It can only be told by Ken Duong himself

Video có giá trị. Anh Ken làm video tiếng Việt để nhiều người Việt xem. Thank you.

Classic! The way they embezzled their customers is not well described though….No doubt though that some money went back to the US and bought some nice real estate in Orang county. We have seen that in earlier times. And as Ken said : This is just the tip of the iceberg….. I wouldn’t be surprised if several high ranked politicians are involved. Some people are going to end in front of a fire squad….That’s the Vietnamese way. Well done Ken.

Thank you for telling the truth news

Very interesting video and well explained

Very good video. Mr Ken Duong is a good presenter with clear informative delivery. For his film idea I would suggest looking at 'The Big Short' and 'Margin Call' films that somehow present complex dry financial scam stories in a compelling and entertaining style that engages an audience not familiar with the technicalities of the financial world. Sounds like, according to Ken, The woman was a front for someone working behind the scenes and it's curious and a shame that this kind of financial malfeasance could happen in Vietnam.

Watching from the Philippines

this type of FRAUD is the norm in USA. They used "foundations", Off shore companies, trust, etc to own shares of a bank, but its the same play. If you want to learn the MOST corrupt practises, join a Private Bank in USA. The world's best crooks.

fastened my seatbelts earlier in the vid., ... you were right, def. got bumpy!

Another version to the Story of Jo Lou in Malaysia. Good reporting 👍🙏

When money talks every one sleeps.Sounds greed.

Even banks can't be trusted. Thus do not put all your money into one bucket.

Sounds like a larger country could be involved, in order to stop companies from entering Vietnam. Sounds familiar 👍❤️🌹🤷‍♀️. Awesome reporting

In Vietnam there is a saying: Money can't buy everything but with lots of money you can buy anything. The whole scandal is rooted from the theme of money power. With lots of money it was used to buy government power to control the country financial economy through banking system and commercial complex. Once the system was established, money kept multiplying year after year non-stop. The scandal was working, thriving as long as the economy was growing until the economy coming to a halts, then it stopped working.

Good advise

Thanks Ken. SUB

Interesting video-well done. However it is so disheartening to see how a few people can almost ruin an entire economy

this thing broke a year ago but everyone in vietnam still behaving very rich

So now after the long story short. Can ee appoint our blogger to get into one of the banks and apply a stake? Humble beginning stake?

Usually financial undertaking of this magnitude in Vietnam are not stand alone, family, corporate or conglomerate similar to those in other southeast Asian countries. For this to happen, it is possible the connections can go all the way to the highest government officials and don’t forget the generals as well.

Great presentation as usual Ken! 👍💪 Your transparency is refreshing and important during these trying times in Vietnam. I love Vietnam & the Vietnamese people. Unfortunately, at the core of the countries economic organizing principles is coercive control. The roots are in communism. To be fair it’s in capitalism too. Corruption is an absolute eventuality. IMO. Thanks again 👍

Well covered, am sure the real value is much larger as the investigation uncovers.

Having been someone who lived in Vietnam and also was ripped off by the corrupt government and people, I'm enjoying this story a bit too much. LOL. The whole country business environment is a snake pit.

Hey Ken, great video. Are you writing your own scripts, or are you more or less talking freely? I think you have a good way to communicate complex topics.

Now ppl can understand why none of Southeast Asia countries can overtake Singapore as the leading financial powerhouse & richest country in asia. Simply put, Singapore started out with vy strong foundation with clean ethical leaderships who only have interests to serve for the ppl & the country. Singapore has set the standard bar very high & it’s a rare trait that not many countries can copycat or emulate from. 🇸🇬🇸🇬🇸🇬 Most politicians in the world are corrupted & only have the goals to make more $$ for themselves & not for the country.

Its hard to understand why someone needs to make so much money . I think it becomes an addiction and because you need to continually pay off people you cannot stop even if you wanted to.

I'm sad for the Vietnamese people who will suffer because of this massive fraud. I hope it doesn't spread to other SE Asian countries.

I cant help but to think Jho Low of 1MDB's scandal might be someone behind the couple

This Vietnamese scandal make the Malaysian 1MDB scandal a child's play.

I can direct it, Ken. 😂

How much bet this Scandal and Debacle becomes a movie, question , a Hollywood or Hong Kong or Vietnam Movie?

Most of embezzled money went to Credit Suisse account of Le Thanh Hai.

I don’t understand if she is owner ! Why can’t she take all the profits?

Tip of the iceberg in the world during this period of time.

When you say she was able to exert over 90% control of the bank by buying and controlling many different entities, i wish you were able to provide a more concrete example. The whole video was a great general overview, but i hope you can provide more specifics in future videos - especially for us folks who may not be super great at understanding the economy, and try to use these videos as a way to learn

There could be an external hand in this scam. Vietnam is a fast growing manuf export economy. The country that feels most uncomfortable with this spectacular growth certainly would have rigged or played this game by using their pawns. Sad and debilitating for growth of this asian tiger
