Cheating?

Also today, I've just read this article on the BBC's website, in the Asia Pacific section. The headline reads 'Cheating Rife in Vietnamese Exams'. It's no surprise to me but it seems to be a big problem in Asia. I saw the same thing in Korea, also reported in the BBC's Asia Pacific section here, 'Korea exam hit by mass cheating'. It didn't take much to find a similar story here from China Daily called 'China cracks down on exam cheats'.

'The pressures to cheat - ranging from parental expectations to the system of awarding scholarships to top students - remain strong.'

And in the Korea article:

'It is mainly due to pressure to do well in a test that will decide their lives forever .'
