This is terrible news - this approval actually ENCOURAGES the use of glyphosate.  The corn approved for commercial use in Vietnam has been genetically modified to withstand mega-doses of this known poison.  Some of the same ingredients used in Agent Orange is used in the production of glyphosate (commercial name is Round-up).  The corn will be saturated with this poison, the surrounding soil will be saturated and eventually, this corn, if consumed by humans and animals will adversely affect those who consume it.
