Vietnam women marry foreigners to escape poverty

The best route out of poverty.
They seek material comfort and a way to save their parents from destitution in old age which many Vietnamese people consider their greatest duty.
Young women have become Tan Loc's lucrative export.
A marriage is not based on love often brings problems.
Any country will do, I will take anyone who will accept me. I need to send money to my parents.
More than 100,000 Vietnamese people married Taiwanese for the last 10 years.

The business could be a cover to trafficking women into prostitution.
