Vill du ha en sång spelad för dig i telefonen? Eller behöver du veta när nästa tåg mellan Hanoi och Hue går? Eller behöver du kanske tips på vad du ska ge din partner i födelsedagspresent? Om du är i Vietnam kan du ringa 1080, en telefonservice som gör mycket mer än Eniro:
Sex is a big issue. In a country where it’s never discussed openly in schools or homes, operators provide a confidential alternative. They also advise on marriage, pregnancy and drug addiction. Those contemplating suicide also turn to them.
Callers don’t have to give names and their questions remain secret. “That’s why many of the clients consider us a very reliable friend,” Phuoc said.
They also can order songs to be sent over the phone for special occasions. The 10,000 on offer include everything from Elvis Presley’s “Viva Las Vegas” to Britney Spears’ “... Baby One More Time.”
And it costs just 6 cents for the first minute and 2 cents for each additional minute.
