Maybe because of Chinese (Vietnamese) New Years?\n\nStuff has been declassified for a while.\n\n\n"To commemorate the 25th anniversary of the fall of Phnom Penh and Saigon, the staff of the Gerald R. Ford Library reviewed for possible declassification nearly 40,000 pages of National Security Adviser files. This exhibit illustrates the wealth of material now available for research."

It's a Fat Tuesday tradition. However in Europe there is a Fat Thursday which was last week. Due to that day polish bakeries and housewives cook PACZKI's. (the correct spelling of it)... AND of course THEY ARE GOOD!!!!.

It depends what kind of sales you are talking about.  I used to manage a clothing store so when it came to budgets and scheduling, I looked at previous years for the same month.  I also took into consideration when government cheques were issued.  I found the mall to be extremely busy on welfare day.

its getting more and more in germany. i think one ponit is that in many parts of germany is bank holiday on nov1, so many clubs and bars do a halloween special. The days before halloween they show millions of the us halloween movies at german tv, so its no more so "strange" for the people here. This year i saw first time kids going for sweets  "trock or treat" but i fear they dont earn that much... for this its a lack of traditional, especially because on nov10/11 its st.martin in germany, this day the kids go from house to house and sing for sweets.

A couple of Vietnamese superstitions that are pretty interesting are:\n1) The first person of the lunar new year to shop your business will set the outlook of the rest of the year. (This works for days as well). I've seen business keepers walk around their store waving a burning newspaper to cleanse the lousy luck from the premises thanks to a deadbeat shopper.\n2) Never take a picture with three people together. The middle will surely die soon.\n3) Pregnant women are bad luck. Seeing one in the early morning is grounds for going home and starting your day over again. I guess this extends to functions like weddings and again, the luck your business can count on. Of course, like in the US, if you are living with a pregnant spouse you may be safer out of the house all together.\n\nI've thought a compilation of the superstitions in Vietnam as a book would be interesting in that I believe there are extensive prescriptions for proper behavior beyond what what me and my US comrades are used to. I know too that there are eleborate luck theorems for divining the meaning of numbers as you can see there when you watch folks try to pick numbers for "Ve So" (lottery tickets).

Are there businesses nearby?  Are you open for lunch?\nOne idea would be to distribute coupons to local businesses for $ off lunch to get the word out that you are there. Many people who work in large corporate offices go out to lunch.

Would there be opportunities? There already is...\n\nVietnam's most valuable resource is their large number of young, educated and hard working people. Half the population of Vietnam was born after the war, and are hungry for good paying jobs. Several economic reforms over the past two decades has turned Vietnam from a communist to a capitalist economy, with the recent enacted in 2001. In turn, there has been a huge infusion of foreign owned businesses with technology busineses ust starting to capitalize on the country's human resources. Oracle and Intel are two of the big technology companies that are recently investing and expanding in Vietnam. \n\nThe one big problem with technology in Vietnam is the lack of personal computers. A standard no frills desktop computer is actually more expensive to purchase in Vietnam than it is in the U.S. Add the fact that the average income is around $300 per month, and you can see that ownership of a home computer by the common Vietnamese is a rarity. This too will change soon.\n\nSeveral small computer manufacturers are already ramping up in Vietnam with many more to come. This will bring computer prices down to affordable levels very quickly. Most all the universities have advanced computer and technology training courses to include education for CISCO network engineering certification. Oracle has just invested millions of dollars to expand courses and training for Oracle database development in expectation to open a complete division in Vietnam.\n\nLong story short... What you see with technology jobs expanding in China and India will soon be expanding in Vietnam, and it will be the next formidable force in the world's technology industry.
