  1. She got a Vietnam 🇻🇳 passport and changed her name to Vietnamese. But she's not Vietnamese.
    – She's 100% Chinese, with both Chinese parents coming from Guandong, China. She's married to a Chinese.

  2. They must think she's some kind of superwoman.! They have a whole regiment of police surrounding her ! Can you imagine if the USA had the death penalty for fraud. It would certainly simplify the next Presidential election !

  3. She must have felt untouchable she was definitely on a power trip no-one needs money like that not unless she was planning on building her own country.
    Life is prison would be the right punishment not the death penalty no court or government is above humanity.
    The sentences is to severe.

  4. How did she steal the money ? She withdrew the regular people's life savings using fraud, proxies. Basically she built her own banks and stole money from the people, depositors, bondholders 42,000 victims and their families impacted, suffered severely.

  5. She knows the bigger players and bigger fishes, she should work out a deal if it implicates more people or powerful politicians

  6. Americans tycoons stolen trillions dollars 💵from investors and gone away all time for their crime., global elites NEVER GO TO JAIL.

  7. She is guilty& all of the Vietnamese govt from top to bottom are guilty. Corruption & fraud are the way of life in VN.

  8. It's pretty obvious to me this is a show trial for a political dissident with phony charges. 3% of Vietnam's GDP? Really? It's ludicrous on its face and there's no real way for anyone watching to come to the conclusion that any of it is true. Ask yourself, was this anything that seriously resembles a fair trial ruled by a jury of her peers? No, it's vietnam, a communist regime that struggles to keep its electricity on and imprisons journalists and protesters.

  9. Vietnam law enforcing system apper stonger compared to many nations, where corporate looting is very much present, but dealt extra kindly.

  10. She need the money to pay electric bill and buy food. You know petrol is expensive. Good on here. Good job. Live like lion for few years and not like dog for 100 years. Good job my lady. The world will remember you. Hollywood will make nice movies on you beautiful story’s. You will never die.

  11. Now she has to pay the ultimate price for her greed.
    Amassing wealth no matter where it came from makes you feel powerful. You can buy and manipulate people, souls, etc.
