A Khmer patient went to see a doctor at a clinic run by a doctor from Northern Vietnam. Upon entering the room, she forgot to take off her socks, and the doctor noticed and said:
– Please take off your socks.
The patient thought he meant to take everything off, so she complied. When the doctor turned around and saw this, he exclaimed:
– Oh my goodness, that’s shocking!
– No, no, it’s not shocking; I’m Khmer – the patient replied.
