Hanoi (Reuter) - The Vietnamese government has banned all
toy weapons including guns, knives and swords because they
encourage violence and social disorder.
The Interior Ministry issued the ban to "prevent incidents
caused by the use of dangerous toys", the official Ho Chi Minh
City daily Saigon Giai Phong said on Monday.
The Ministry defined as dangerous toys that "might
threaten human life and health, damage property or promote a
psychology of violence, of which bad elements could take
advantage...to carry out criminal acts, having a bad effect on
social order and security," the newspaper said.
