ELEVATOR & LIFESTYLE

The spirit of August 19th and the aspiration for a powerful, prosperous nation

Autumn of 1945. On the morning of August 19th, the streets of Hanoi were covered with red flags bearing a golden star. From Hang Dao, Hang Ngang, Hang Duong streets and others... dense streams of people, holding banners and placards, some even carrying drums, gongs, and trumpets to cheer. Elderly people walking with canes beside young men, young women in white *ao dai* interspersed among self-defense teams wearing red armbands. The sound of drums and the shouts of "Long live independent Vietnam!" echoed. The atmosphere was as bustling as a great festival, but this was in fact a General Uprising to seize power for the people, to seize independence and freedom.

    Why Do We Act Selfishly?

    Imagine a tribe with just one fig tree. If one member overeats, others go hungry. The same applies to hunting a single deer—if the chief overindulges, everyone else suffers. This illustrates a zero-sum game: one person’s gain means another’s loss. When someone benefits, it often comes at someone else’s expense.

Us two grandparents do not have to go in and out the first floor, but can go to the rooftop to water flowers and grow vegetables. But for a few months now, I have to give up that habit completely, the trees must be withered. The reason is that we upgraded the elevator but forget to test it first.

    EM – Just because I want a beautiful house, now I have to climb 7 floors every day to water the plants. And I'm not a mountain climber. So climbing stairs is like torture.
