After reading alot of messages from some netters, I have something that I want
to share with you. One is my opinion on embargo. Two is a story of going back
to help VN.

- As Tung suggested, one of many ways to help VN out of poverty is lifting 
  embargo against VN, and the VNese in US can help is writing to Congress
  and US government to ask them to lift the embargo as soon as possible.
  I think if you do this, you waste your time because they (the US government)
  don't care what you are asking about this issue, and because they just
  do for their own interests. Why do I say that?. After the Tinemen(spelling?)
  Square tragedy , thousands of letters written by Chinese-American people,
  they are mostly college students and professionals like SCV netters, were
  sent to COngress and US government to ask them to punish the China by puting
  economic sanction against China. Did the US do that? NO. Does China have
  more domocracy than VN?. I think they are even worse than VN. I don't have
  anything to prove to you. But if you want to verify this you can read 
  Chinese papers or talk to your chinese fellows. So anyone say that the 
  reason the US  still apply embargo on VN because VN does not have democracy,
  please think back. To me I still want to see VN become a democratic country
  before I go back.

- The following is story about a newcomer to US who went back to VN to help,
  and I want to tell to you in VNese.
