Saleslady can put you this Toyota Camry for $80,000. She is a university graduate who earns a salary of 5,000,000 vnd (Vietnam dong) or 238 usd (US dollars) per month. She gets no commission. I asked if Korean or other foreigners were the main customers. Surprisingly, she said on the contrary, they are mostly Vietnamese, but not a lot of sales per month. Found out later from other sources that high-ranking government officials make a killing by knowing in advance decisions that may effect the economy and thereby purchase land along a future road project, for example.
