Vietnamese brides for sale!

I find the above video rather sad. Young, pretty Vietnamese girls are shipped to Singapore to become brides of single, fat, old men.

The price? SGD $10,000.

The Vietnamese brides to be have to go through screening for diseases and virginity tests.

I find it rather humiliating from the girl’s perspective to go through the virginity test.
After all, did the men they are marrying go through the same tests?

Is the cost of a ticket from third world to first, one’s body, pride and soul?

Readers are welcome to leave comments after watching the above video.

On a lighter note, one of the girls in the video is really quite chio!
