First, the International Math Olympiad, then Programming chip contest, then Microsoft International software contest and now the International Physics Olympiad.
Sad that this talent won't be utilized for the benefit of our country until we get enough money to fund more mathematics,science and computer projects in our country. I hope by 2020 Vietnam gets rich enough to create a technological utopia.

The government might treat them with better respect and compensation if they stay. I think the government only rewards those who are important to the country but treats everyone else like crap though.

For a thing, the kids in Vietnam start to do complex mathematics at school pretty early compare to their peers in other western countries.

Highschools in cities of VN are superior comparing to US.
However, universities of U.S. are superior.
VN undergraduate programs are very inefficient.
