Travel / Re: Indian Consulate In Vietnam Is Robbing Nigerians by emmatony: 7:59pm On May 13
Nigeria charges Indians the same amount to get a Nigerian VISA. India does reciprocity. Whatever a country charges its Nationals for a VISA, the same amount will be charged to the Nationals of that country

proeast:
I just had a nasty experience at the Indian consulate in Ho Chi Minh City.

Here is the entire story:

On Friday, I went to the Indian consulate in HCMC to apply for one month tourist visa, after booking online the previous night. On getting to the consulate, the lady at the reception took my documents inside and after a while, returned to tell me that my visa has been granted in principle. That i have been issued with a single entry visa. However, I must pay 6.3000,000.00 VND about $250. I was shocked when I heard this because I already paid the agent that booked the appointment $100 thinking it included visa fees. They said it was because I’m a Nigerian and we are charged higher. Nevertheless, I decided to go ahead and pay the amount to save myself further stress. But the lady again, insisted I must pay cash.

I called a Vietnamese lady who accompanied me and she helped provide the balance because I had only 3+ million VND with me.

After paying, they collected my passport, Vietnamese visa and then conducted biometrics on me. Then I left.

This morning, I received a call from the consulate that I have to pay another 8 million VND otherwise my visa would not be issued to me. I was shocked and I told them that I can't pay a dime again. They either issue my visa or refund my money. The lady agreed that I should come and get the refund. However, on getting to the consulate, they refused to give me the refund. That it was a new policy. Eventually, I left with my passport. No visa! no $250!

I'm currently feeling robbed and dehumanized. I don't know how to go about this to seek justice.

Pls can anyone help me with advise or pro bono services because I believe I have a good case and such inhuman acts shouldn't be allowed.

MrProlific95:
What is a battalion, please.

A battalion is made up of several platoons, a battalion is less than a brigade.

If I am not mistaken, from

Unit- Platoon- Battalion-Brigade-Division and so on

You are very correct. No country can establish a Battalion in every community. The resources to do that are not available

u sey wetin Germany abi gammini I no hear u well. So u no know end of the month is less than 30 days? If truly u are in Germany and not gammini u will understand that Saturdays and Sundays are usually excluded from working days. U only count working days not weekends and Sundays and if u remove 3staturdays and 3sundays in a month what do u have 24 to 25 working days and not 30 like u are claiming from gammini right now. However if the weekend 23 or 24 falls between the weekends u pay before the last none working day. These are the kind of people we have in the APC government why wont the country remain disastrous?

Remove the Saturdays and Sundays this month. Have you worked for 20 days?

You have explained my point yourself.

what is the truth. Do you know the terms and condition of service? Salary is to be paid latest 25th of every month. Illiterates like you will come here talking rubbish.
Are you a civil servant? I am a civil servant and i know the terms and condition of my service.
Always ask question before coming to a public forum to disgrace your lineage.

I laugh at you for calling me illiterate. I have the highest academic qualifications in the world. You have not said anything but insulted people. Can't you people make your point without insult? Who is in the zoo now? I pity people like you

what do you understand by month end. No where in the world where government salaries are paid beyond the 25th of every month bro. Your mentality is the reason naija will keep doing moon walk.
For your information, I have traveled and worked in some countries. I am currently in Germany. So I know what I am telling you.

I won't say anything again. You people can take FG to court for not paying before Christmas.

junketer:
You are actually the id1ot. Salaries are paid toward month end and not literally month end. It's usually the 25th of every month but if the 25th is a holiday just like it is now then salaries should be paid before the 25th not after. That's how it's done. Abeg make i ask you, when does end of the month start?
Most of you are uncultured and that is why you just insult people the way you like. You work for the month and you should be paid at the end of the work. The kind of mentality I see here is the reason we can't make progress as a nation.

Oga maybe you need medication, December salary is usually paid earlier than most the other months because of Christmas

I am trying to make you understand that paying you before Christmas in December is just a favor and not a right. Remember that December has 31 days. Your problem is entitlement and I guess that is why you are broke. You need a change of mindset completely.

I am wicked for telling you the truth. Plan your life well and stop expecting a salary before the end of the month. God will naturally bless me more for telling you the truth.

Sometimes I am ashamed of Nigerians. The entitlement is just too much. Suppose the government pays you before any festival that's just a favor and not a right. Salaries are paid at the end of the month and not before a festival. Let's understand this and stop blaming anyone for our lack of proper planning.

God bless you
Ttalk:
Arguing with many Nigerians seems to be a waste of time and one wonders when the so-called educated ones championing the narrative of "Nigeria as a rich country" praise.

How is Nigeria a rich country?

Having potential is different from actualizing that potential. Depending on the rent economy would continue to plunge the country into deeper poverty.

Until our education system is overhauled and malpractice is completely expunged so we won't have miracle centers products forming analysis on social media, Nigeria will not able able to form a public opinion that would shape our policies to attain desired development
