Are they wearing the same lipstick? She must have pissed off a high ranking communist.
Vietnam continues to win.

Let’s keep the kill streak going!
Has the death penalty been used for this sort of crime before in Vietnam and has it been effective at deterring others in a measurable way?
In Vietnam? Not sure. The French seemed to have a lasting benefit from doing this to every landlord they could lay hands on in the late 1700s, though.
The death penalty in this case isn’t to deter future crime of the same type. It’s to remove a specific type of malignant cancer from society and ensure that it can’t spread to others. All of her cohorts that could be punished were sentenced for a range of time and a fine as is appropriate.
Has the death sentence been a deterrent for any crime?
Singapore kills drug dealers which is a bit scary.
I hope that city gets an asteroid.

Tin pot dictator states get the asteroid. Quick before the authoritarianisn disease spreads.
No it’s a big show for statists to show how strong and dominating they are. It’s not about your lowly practical concerns. It doesn’t even matter of they kill the right one. As long as blood is spilled. The anger of the masses will be sated for a little while and all will know there is no escape from the violence of the state.
I dunno, try it and find out?
The 67-year-old chair of the real estate company Van Thinh Phat was formally charged with fraud amounting to $12.5 billion — nearly 3% of the country’s 2022 GDP.
Wow, when your fraud starts being measured in “percentage of GDP” you know you got too greedy.
According to prosecutors, over a period of three years from February 2019, she ordered her driver to withdraw 108 trillion Vietnamese dong, more than $4bn (£2.3bn) in cash from the bank, and store it in her basement.
That much cash, even if all of it was in Vietnam’s largest denomination banknotes, would weigh two tonnes.
From a BBC article
Dang, that’s a lotta dong.
Ha. Thoroughly nose exhaled. 10/10
She likes dong even more than OPs mom
Let’s not be ridiculous, OP’s mom can handle a lot more dong.
That’s what she said
Great for them! Happy for you Vietnam 🙂
death penality is for weak countries
I don’t support the death penalty, but I do support harsh punishment for this kind of massive scale fraud.
Completely agree, the death penalty isn’t necessary, but I am glad of the message this sends to some rich folk. Probably mostly Vietnamese ones, but still.
sucks to be a criminal billionaire in a socialist-ish country
👈 SEE! THEY’LL KILL YOU!!
They do love their state murders in Asia
Can we make some kind of fried rice/stir fry with her butt meat
Wait, so in other countries… fraud has consequences?
…negative consequences?
Vietnam, still undefeated
The French beg to differ
France lost to Vietnam though, that’s why there’s still a Vietnam and not L’Indochine Française or whatever they were gonna call it
I don’t know if this is sarcasm or if you consider six decades of being colonies as a win
