Adopting a child in Vietnam - as a single man

Outlook

Available for over a year

In his 20s, Cuong Vu did something highly unusual for a single man in Vietnam: he adopted a child. Cuong had always wanted children, but relationships hadn't worked out. So four years ago, he headed down the adoption route - a decision that brought him into conflict with traditional notions of the family - as he told Jo Fidgen from downtown Hanoi.
