I'm sorry if what I'm going to say would hurt somebody's feeling..
But I have so much sympathy for the author of this article NOT to point
out his confusion about the abstract concept "To^? quo^'c".

In my humble common sense, "To^? quo^'c" is one's native land which is a
combination of his/her people and the land they inhabit on for a long
historic time. Is VN still there, in the same place, with the same graceful
S-shape? Are Vietnamese people still living there, speaking the same
Vietnamese musically sound language?

If the answers are "yes" to the aboves, then for all practical matters,
the article author's "To^? quo^'c" is never lost, never broken into pieces.

The disappointment, hatred, bitterness should be directed to the VN's
current authorities who have been doing so much damage to your "To^? quo^'c".

Authorities come and go; Regimes established and collapse. But your people
are always there, your land is always there. Your love toward your "To^?
quo^'c" is strengthened every day you are away from her against your will.
To make your "To^? quo^'c" more peaceful and prosperous, you would try your
best to contribute to her constant positive change the way YOU KNOW HOW:
peaceful evolution, reform, violent revolution... It's up to YOU.

PERSONALLY, I prefer NOT to travel to VN. Why should I put myselves under
the control of the absurd and obsolete VN autorities, even for a few days?
To enjoy what? To see people suffering in poverty? To see the beautiful land
polluted and turn gray day by day? I would feel more pain in my heart than
some joy of counting my old fond memories!

But, for someone who want to see their loved ones before it is too late or
to ease the pain of their kin, please by all means! After all, are we all
just normal human beings with its own bitter paradox?

   Hi Thanh,

This is a very emotional news. I personally could not believe I've read.
However, this is true according to this news artical. I really would like to
know more information about Luyen if it is available. Why did *they* kill
Luyen and who were *they*? Did Luyen do anything wrong? I doubt it but I ask
you anyways. Is the reason of Luyen's death because he is pre-med student?

Before I came to college and had decided to become a doctor, my favorite high
school teacher always told me that *they* would destroy all my resources, even
myself, in order to less competition in the medical field. I did not believe
what my teacher said but I kept that in my mind. 

Now, I am not a pre-med student but a math & computer science student. In my
field, there are competitions too. I've found out that my *friends* like me
when *they* find out my low grades, and *they* hate me when my grades are
higher than theirs. Furthermore, I don't mind helping my *friends* at all. But
when times come for me to seek some help, no-one is willing to offer to help me
out. That was the lesson for me in my first year in college.

As a good examplary for each of VNese student who study in ngoa.i quo^'c,
please be careful of what you are doing, saying or playing. Anything you do
will reflect your values as a VNese student; it also reflect the good/bad
values to the VNese community as a whole. 

Please tell me if there is something I can help Luyen. :-(

Reply-To: kvt@druwy.ATT.COM (KVT)

Recent traffics on SCV and their ensuing exchanges make me wonder
about two things. Some might call these philosophical stuffs. Some 
might call them facts of life. Some might simply ignore them. Anyway,
those two things are:

1. Is it really more people believe in "the end justifies the means"
than I imagine? 

2. While it appears that some netters cannot even stand to see each 
other's names or read each other's messages, I wonder if one would 
have seen his SCV presense meaningful without his nemesis ?!?
in other words, would they die of being bored because they 
don't have anyone to fight? Do they need each other's animosity to live?

In any case, I don't expect anybody to follow up on this. Like most 
messages on SCV, I'm talking to myself anyway. Hey, this reminds me
of the song 'the sound of silence':

    ......
    Ten thousand people, maybe more,
    People talking without speaking,
    People hearing without listening,
    People writing songs that voices never share
    And no one dare
    Disturb the sound of silence.

(another thing to wonder: if you hear too much noise, you hear
nothing? is that why silence has sound?)

Have whatever type of day you want to have,

Although I found some novelty value in being called a "neo-Communist", :-)
in general I don't think I've ever participated in a discussion on USENET
which has gotten as ugly as that.  Not even on alt.activism or
talk.politics.mideast have I seen people resort to personal attacks so
readily.  I can understand now why some Vietnamese have told me they don't
bother to post to or even read SCV any more; some views simply cannot be
expressed here without unleasing a torrent of flames.  It seems like
extended flame-wars are a permanent feature of this group.

	Dear Dave,

	As one of those who replied to your postings, i would like to repeat
that the reason so many responses came back to you was the way you expressed 
your opinion. Don't take one incident and generalize against the whole group.
It isn't the conduct of a noble person.

	SCV is like any other public forum. State your opinion, if you want. 
If people don't like what you say, they'll let you know. After a few posts,
if the discussion gets nowhere, drop it and move on. Just sit there and whine
will not get you anything.

	Don't label this group, please. If you don't want to participate, 
please, by all means, move on.

	Sincerely,

VIETNAM COOPERATING WITH U.N. ANTI-DRUG EFFORTS

    HANOI, Aug 13, Reuter - Vietnam has begun cooperating with United Nations
efforts to stop drug abuse and to combat trafficking across its borders, a U.N.
official said on Thursday.
    The U.N. Drug Control Programme (UNDCP) has committed $407,963 to help
Vietnam work out an anti-drug plan, William Beachner, the Bangkok-based UNDCP
regional director, said.
    Beachner, who is visiting Hanoi, told Reuters the UNDCP and Vietnamese
officials would sign a project document committing Hanoi to work out a drug
abuse control master plan.
    Vietnam has 100,000 to 150,000 drug addicts, he quoted Hanoi authorities as
saying, including some 50,000 in Ho Chi Minh City, formerly Saigon, where drug
abuse was widespread during the Vietnam War.
    Newspapers in Hanoi have recently said free market economic reforms by the
Vietnamese government have made things easier for opium traders by liberalising
domestic trade.
    The country lies in one of the world's major opium producing regions and
near the notorious "Golden Triangle" -- the area where the borders of Laos,
Burma and Thailand meet -- a centre for trafficking in opiates.
    Beachner said U.N. drug officials were worried that heroin produced in
Burma, and now smuggled across China and Thailand might in the future be sent
through Laos and Vietnam.
    China, which has been cooperating with U.N. drug officials for the past five
or six years, has said some opium is now crossing the border from Vietnam, he
said.
    "The more Vietnam opens up, the more likelihood that heroin will pass
through here," he said.
    The Vietnamese government says it has been trying to stop opium production
by persuading ethnic minorities in remote mountain areas to substitute other
crops for the opium poppy plants they have traditionally grown.
    The government estimates 2,000 ha (5,000 acres) in Vietnam are under poppy
cultivation, producing 20 to 30 tonnes of opium per year, Beacher said.
    The Rangoon government says 400 tonnes of opium are produced in Burma
annually, but U.S. drug experts estimate production at 2,000 tonnes, and U.N.
officials at about 1,200 tonnes, he said.
    Laos produces 200 to 400 tonnes, according to estimates by the Vientiane
government and other sources, Beachner said.
    Vietnam, at UNDCP's suggestion, has formed a government task force to fight
drug production, abuse and trafficking, he said. It is headed by Hanoi's Office
for Mountainous Areas and Ethnic Minorities, with officials from 17 ministries
and state bodies.

Mr. Tha`nh,

You're darn right.  Texas girls are a lot better than Cali girls.  No
questions about that.  However, Georgia girls are even better than
Texas girls.  I don't mean to convince you to go to Georgia.

I used to live in Texas.  Texas has no state tax, i.e., you can save a
few thousand bucks right there.  Texas has low automobile insurance, a
lot lower than Cali.  Housing price is about half of that in Cali.,
similar to rental, i.e, apartment, too.

If you are looking for a girl, Houston is a better place compared with
Dallas; however, in general, Texan girls are more loyal, submissive,
natural (the real thing), and beautiful than Cali girls, i.e, they
don't have boyfriends A, B, C, etc. at the same time.  Similar
comparison, they are less compared with Gegorgia girls.  The only thing
is the availability here (Georgia) is not that high like in Texas.
Quality cannot go with the quantity, you know.

If you depend more on Vietnamese foods, Houston is better than Dallas
area including Ft. Worth, Arlington, and Dallas (Garland, Richardson,
etc.), but if talking about jobs, Dallas is a lot better.

Well, I'm no longer a Texan, so I let current Texans add more
information.  Kho^ng da'm mu'a rie^`u qua ma<'t tho+., you know.

Ex-Texan

P.S.  They (I mean girls) are hot like chili and know how to ride very
well, I mean riding horses, not other.  You know what I mean.
