Dual citizenship

This morning Charlie received his Vietnamese passport. Charlie had dual citizenship before this event, but I suppose this does concretise the fact.

I believe that until later this year, under Vietnamese law, it is illegal for a Vietnamese citizen to also be a citizen of another country, but this has been ignored by Vietnamese authorities for many years now and I think the law is being changed in July this year to officially permit this.

Aha!!!! Look what I have just found: http://www.iht.com/articles/ap/2008/11/17/asia/AS-Vietnam-Dual-Citizenship.php

Believe that a foreigner has the right to obtain Vietnamese citizenship after living in Vietnam for 20 years. I have been here for nearly 16 so only 4 more years to go.
