     - I disagree and also agree, because in Vietnam society right now is very chaos. Some people don’t care about rules or laws. They only want what best for themselves and don’t care about the other. They also compete each other by their wealth and education. Other problem is that the amount of poor people and orphanage children are very high here. So if everyone in Vietnam was equal poor people might get an opportunity to fit in and have a better life. People won’t contempt other that not as rich or as smart as they are. But somehow if everyone is equal they will lose there freedom and rights. Some people work hard and they should deserve what they earn.       

     - In my society, I won’t be harsh on my people. I except the beauty in each person and I will allow them to keep their natural beauty. But in there would be some rule that people have to follow. I want the amount of money for each person will be the same no matter if the other is hard worker and other doesn’t. The amount to work time also the same to avoid people that try to work hard to earn more. I will give the limit of gas and oil use in each family to save the environment and sustainable. Each family will only have the limit of land to build their house. If anyone being capture comparing themselves to other they will get their punishment.

     - To help people with less capable mentally, physically, or socially to “catch up” I will set a limit of equal amount of money for each person. Everyone will be as rich as other. I will help people will less mentally to have the opportunity to study so they will be as smart as other.

     - I can encourage people to be happy about the law and somehow find a way to change it. Ask if anyone disagree and agree with that law or not and make a vote. Then I might stand up and start a revolution which I hope I have enough courage to do that.

     - I don’t think equality is possible because as the way people born they have in themselves some talent. People get what they deserve to have. If you want to be smarter or wealthier you have to work hard. If the lazy people earn same as the hard work people it will be unfair for the hard work one. It depends on how people live and believe in themselves. If you want to dominate other you have to show that you have capability to do it. Sometimes people who dominate other might become a good leader. They could organize and make the society better somehow.

     - I know a person in my town; he is an odd in everyone’s eyes. He treats other very unfair and he think he has money so he can attempt other who are poor. One day at his coming weeding, he only invited people that have money and have enough opportunity to be his friends. Other example is that I saw some current event on the internet that was talking about a kid that have been treat harshly and get all kind of punishment whenever he did something wrong. He works for this family and because he was too poor he had to stand those punishments that this family gave him or else he got no money.   

Letter :) BEAR

     Dear Uncle Vuong

     I am Selena, your favorite niece from Vietnam. I know that you ha a very big allergic so I sent you a very good medicine which way better than the bear bile you are using. I just learned about bear bile in my class yester day so I write this letter right away to warn you. It possible that it can cause you cancer if the bile was took from a cancer sickness bear. More important than that, people have to kill a lot of bears as they make the bile Bear are in danger and I know that you don’t want them to die too

     I went on a field trip to Cu Chi Wildlife at Risk, where bears are safe and rescue. I saw those bear live. Very happy in an area which they can entertain themselves better than in a 2x2m cage with a needle through their gall bladder. Imagine if you are one of them, I am sure you don’t want to be in that position. It very important to have a place like that because at lest we know and believe that there are really place where bear can belong to. Somewhere they can be saving from needle, cage, blood, and devil (hunter).

     I need your help uncle, don’t use bear bile anymore. I’m trying to convince people not to buy bear bile o use them. If you can do that you might be the first person who can lead me to my goal. I can believe more that everything I do is worth it. And by the way, I also buy for you a T-shirt and a bracelet from the wildlife to help support them. Ask  your friend if they would like to buy some. It very helpful if more people buy so we can get more money to save the bear.

P/S: I just want you to know that I love you a lot.

                       Your favorite niece

Advertising and Your Life :)

*How does advertising influence consumption?
     - I think advertising creat a big influence consumption in our life. Everyday we deal more than hundred of advertising and commercial. People who own the product do everything to sell them even they know it's bad. They convince other to buy and a lot of people buy it and they use it. As they use those product it creat a big issue for enviroment. Peopl who buy them don't know how it effect the enviroment because at the advertising only show the good side without the bad side of the product.

*Do you think citizens are sufficiently informed about the sustainability of our consumption habits? If not, how can we become more informed about sustainability issues?
     - I don't think citizens really care about sustainability in their life. They do work hard for their money and they think they should have the goods that can pay back all of their hard work. So they just used all the stuff they think that is good for their life and themselves. I think the best way to informed about sustainability issues is to convince people by talking about it more on TV, Newspaper, Internet where can easy get people attention.

*Do you think these advertising techniques influence what you and your friends purchase?
     - I think some advertising do influence me and my friends purchase. Cause they know what we need and they try all of their best way to get our attention. They did bring celebrities people to their advertising and also beautiful models.

 Oh My God!!!
