#1 Good old fashioned ethnic hatred about colonial rule that ended in the 10th century.

Damn. Holding a grudge for a millenium...that's a serious grudge.

#2 Of course, there's also good, old fashioned hatred of the overbearing next door neighbor.
Hell, they were fighting the Chinese at the same time they were fight us. It's why the Russians had to send stuff by ship instead of by rail.

#4 By most accounts the Viets appear to be burning factories or businesses owned by Taiwanese andor Indians, not Mainland Chinese per se.

Reminds me more of the LA Riots back in the early 1990's - all that's missing is African-Americans destroying so many Black-owned businesses it allowed non-African Americans to come in + take over from the locals.
