“Oh my God! That’s disgusting!”, “This girl must be mad!” and “She is so impudent!” are the most popular comments. 

People were even more angry since the incident took place at the time when Hanoi celebrated its 1000^th anniversary. 

“What will foreign visitors think about the charm of Vietnamese women if they see this scene. It’s so sad!,” one wrote on tuu.vn forum. 

Some people said that the act not only harms Hanoi’s holy place? but also shows the poor morals of some young people. 

People condemned the girl’s action/behaviour and expressed their disapproval of the witnesses who didn’t prevent the girl’s wrongful act but instead, filmed the scene. 

They called upon the online community to delete that “ugly” clip.
