    Vietnam: Gen Z seek justice for teen killed in ex-politician's car crash (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Until recently, there would have been little to distinguish Vietnam's so-called Justice Tree from the hundreds of others lining the streets of Hanoi. Then the bouquets started piling up. It was here that former politician Nguyen Sy Cuong was driving his BMW in May last year when he veered into the opposite lane and smashed into a motorbike carrying a father and his teenage daughter. The father, Do Viet Hung, suffered a broken leg but survived. The daughter, 18-year-old Do Ngoc Phuong Thuy, died

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    When Vietnam's police raided a pair of nondescript warehouses in outer Ho Chi Minh City earlier this year, they discovered more than 23,000 pairs of slippers bearing the logos of Nike, Adidas, Crocs and Gucci. Except those brands had nothing to do with the warehouses. The slippers were all counterfeits. The raid, which led to the seizure of goods worth VND 2bn (£57,559; $76,053), was part of a crackdown on a black-market industry that has thrived in the public eye for decades. Just 30km away, at
