"ABOUT THE VIETNAM ECONOMY STATUS" BY GOLDILOCKS, 25 MAY
GOLDILOCKS
The link below provides information on Vietnam's review by the US Department of Commerce regarding Vietnam's ability to move into a Market Economy.
My understanding from the previous article on Vietnam reviewed is that this is not a graded review. It is simply a valuation of the types of goods and services they can provide comprehensively.
Vietnam is showing steady growth in several areas of their Market. Their potential to increase National Capital Investment opportunities on a Global scale is evident.
Clearly, hurdles are being cleared for Vietnam to move into a Market Economy. A Market Economy will allow them to freely move their money through supply and demand.
Credit Valuation Adjustments on their currency will be determined by Vietnam's ability to move their goods and services near and far at competitive rates.

"CONVERSATION BETWEEN GAZELLE AND GINGER FROM GINGER TELEGRAM ROOM, 24 MAY
💢 Conversation continues in chat - re timing of The Event 5.23.24
💢 Gezelle, Liberty Lounger Extraordinaire: So we should be looking good in 2 weeks? I can't believe we are actually seeing a timing prediction. This is awesome!!!
💢 Ginger: Anything could happen.... We'll see. I'm liking June, I'll be honest with you -- but I've got to see those non negotiable markers play out that I've taught y'all. Got to.
This is the reason I've always been guarded - and very conservative - regarding my thoughts on the timing, but I've been right to be that way, too.
Because while so many of the gurus are calling it for "now, today, this week, this weekend", I'm over here like, "naw, boo, we've got some more here to take care of methinks. Little more time IMHO".
That's what it's looking like right now , I believe. 🤔🧐 If these big GCR things play out like we want them to, right away, yes, I can see mid June or just after. Highly plausible. But I'm not calling it.... I'm still gonna watch from my 40K perch above the rollercoaster 🎢 and the Camper playground. 😛😆🤗
