3. really is up to you so long as your bx is happy...my advice is dun buy too costly...anything around SGD 2k or higher if you can afford is ok liao...my opinion only...I knew some bros here bought around SGD 4k to 6k...

4. yes...buy in Vn must be careful where to keep...how to bring back...
Hi Bros,

This is an interesting topic for me too. Are the Vietnamese able to differentitate between 18k and 22k ? And on a general layman terms, would they value 22k more or do they still largely prefer a more commonly circulated 18k ? ( perhaps this should ultimately revolve around reasons like how commonly can 22k be traded over the counter in vn etc ).

I would like to avoid getting 22k if it is going to be seen as useless in the vn community and stick to 18k.

Any advise will help.

Thanks all.

Regards
