OT 100% Off Topic *****************yes, this is a real Reuters story Vietnam officials faulted for not singing karaoke Wed Jun 7, 2006 4:54 AM BST HANOI (Reuters) - In Vietnam, where karaoke is not only recreational but also business etiquette, failing to show your talent can cost you dearly. Tien Phong (Pioneer) newspaper reported on Wednesday that state oil monopoly Petrovietnam's financial arm PVFC ordered 21 officials to make "self-criticism" reports for not singing karaoke at a contract-signing ceremony near Hanoi on Saturday. At least eight department heads were facing suspension, said the newspaper, which also published a letter by the group of officials protesting the decision as unlawful. "We all thought we had completed our company obligation and contributed to the success of the ceremony," the letter said. "We were only thinking of our family back in Hanoi, the kids and the wives waiting." A company official said, "No one has been laid off yet but they have to criticise themselves for not participating in collective activities."
