Vietnam

I think Vietnam should be status as "LGBT individuals explicitly allowed"

According to Vietnam's adoption laws (part 8/3), single person (as Same-sex couple are not recognized as a married couple) is allowed to adopt child. The law do not have any sentences to deny LGBT person to adopt child. In fact, I know at least 2 transgender singers have adopted child (Cindy Thai Tai and Lam Chi Khanh)

Update required

Could someone please update this table to reflect the fact that Victoria (state in Australia) as legalised same-sex adoption (should go into effect soon). If they could also update the Australian version of the adoption map that would be much appreciated. Jono52795 (talk) 07:18, 9 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Done. I've also requested a rename of the Australia map given that it's updated since 2009. SPQRobin (talk) 15:23, 12 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
