DescriptionThis interview was conducted as part of the New Jersey Historical Commission Grant-funded Multi-Ethnic Oral History Project. The interviewee is Mr. Huang Chuong, a Vietnamese American, who came to the United States as a refugee in 1980. Mr. Chuong taught psychological warfare at Vietnamese military training schools. When the communists took over South Vietnam, he was relocated to a concentration camp and then a reeducation camp until 1979. He then escaped by boat to the Phillipines after a lengthy journey. Mr. Chuong describes how he got a job in New Jersey and also the differences he notices in Vietnamese and American cultures. He also extensively discusses the amount of assistance he received from charitable Americans.
