Protests took place in Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, and other cities.
Security police acted quickly and shut down each of the protests within an hour of their beginnings.
At least twenty people were arrested, under charges of instigating the protests and refusing to disperse.
The protesters are angry with China over her continued claims of disputed islands, in the South China Sea.
Problems only increased when China revealed their new passports, which show the islands as Chinese property.
Other countries have shown their displeasure as well, as islands belonging to them are also being claimed by China.
It is a very rare occurrence for protests to take place in Vietnam, showing just how angry people are.
