Vietnamese American Stories
Melissa Hung - December 19, 2006
Seem to be quite a few stories lately in mainstream papers about Vietnamese Americans lately:
From the SF Chronicle, by Vanessa Hua: The Making of a Cyber Dissident : Cong Do had accomplished a lot as an immigrant and father of three. But it was his secret life fighting to bring democracy to Vietnam that made him an international cause celebre.
This is in today's LA Times: A Desperate Mother Ignores the Odds . Twenty years ago, a single mother in Vietnam sent her son to America with little money. He kept in touch through letters, but 4 years ago the letters stopped coming. Now in failing health, she sets out to find him before her visa expires or her cancer returns.
