A company that I used to work for employed a large staff of Vietnamese women. We would always find these piles of used matches next to the toilet. It was apparently a cultural thing. Another thing that they used to do was, if someone cut their finger, they would take a cigarette, cut it open and dump out the tobacco, then pack the tobacco around the cut and cover it with a band-aid. They swore that this helped (I've never tried it so maybe they were correct).
Anyway, that was the first thing I thought of when reading the link. I wouldn't have been in the least surprised to read that it was a Vietnamese woman, although the article didn't state as much.
