> It's because in many developing countries, phones are their only computers

Do you really think that people who work in offices in developing countries don't have computers?

For sure there are many people here for whom their phone is their only computer. But those are not the people I am emailing.

Besides, for it's development level, Vietnam is a well educated and fairly high tech country, especially in the cities. According to this site, PC ownership is similar to Greece at around 10 per hundred people, but I am sure if you could filter by just the large cities it would come out as much higher:

Well, how else can you explain why you don't get replies via email in Vietnam and most businesses prefer to use chat?

Why don't you take a crack at explaining it.


It's because they still use Zalo and FB Messenger on their laptops, not because they don't have laptops.
