Poland's Vietnamese: A tough transition but they're surviving

I think it is time for poem



"Vietnamise princess"

She was pure
But not white

She was soft
Like the night

Love is one
And
I know
That here will be

It is interesting how different their life looks like in different countries. conrast between Poland/France and Germany is noticable.

"All in all, there are 3500 children with foreign passports in Poland"

How does Poland handle such massive numbers and still retain its traditions for tolerance?

The real number must be tens times bigger, so keep your poor jokes for yourself...

I heard that Poland is 3rd in Europe in terms of Vietnamese minority population, after France and Germany.

Ditto sunshine.

When i was driving through Warszawa 2 years ago i heard on the radio that there are 3 vietnamese football (soccer) divisions in the city - apparently there are 50,000 vietnamese migrants in the city. I stopped at a couple of stores and got something to eat - they were quite visible everywhere.

It's quite clear that poland, like many other european countries & n. america, needs immigrants since the natural population growth is in the negatives. Orientals are a great choice; hard working and non-religious. By doing so, hopefully poland will avoid some of the culture clashes and islamic extremism seen in w. europe.

just like their Polish hosts....

Poland's Vietnamese: A tough transition but they're surviving

They're having a hard time switching from the monkey and dog meat to kielbasa &
keishka...but hey, with a good pivo...

Ship them back , they have no place in Poland

Get out.

No they don't. It's simple our own can just have more kids. Russia has had major sucess with paying people to have children. Flooding any country with a permanent underclass is insane. These people in general have no manners,have horrible hygiene and no skills whatsoever. They are in general a burden on taxpayers. How many examples does europe need? Britan , Sweden , France. DIVERSITY DOES NOT WORK.

I don't think Poland is all too tolerant toward foreign emigrants, maybe tourists or businessmen with $$$ but not foreigners with no money and different physical looks. Poland is a homogenous country which would be the reason I guess.



The US should ship all those Polish bums who are there illegally too. And if enough Poles became disciplined enough not to try their luck, maybe we'd get the Visa Waiver too. Oh I don't care, I qualify for a green card anyway.

Poles have been emigrants too, and while we look like our British/American/Australian hosts we do have different customs and behaviour which many locals can rightfully find distasteful. I think the least people like Greg above could do is cut the hypocritical BS.

Looks like you qualify for a yellow card too... If you know what I mean...
