Vietnamese !G35! Gang
to all the vietnamese in here..
HANOI, Vietnam (AP) - Thousands of Vietnamese living illegally in the United States now face deportation after the two countries completed an agreement Tuesday, a move that sparked worry among immigrant communities.
Vietnamese who entered the U.S. illegally after the former foes normalized relations in 1995 could now be forced to return to their birth country, said Julie Myers, director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
The deal has been under negotiation for 10 years. Vietnam had previously been reluctant to accept citizens back, and community leaders in the U.S. said many immigrants have been living with deportation orders for years, even decades.
"Some Vietnamese have been here have a very long time," said Carolyn Tran, an organizer with VietUnity, an Oakland-based Vietnamese community organization. "They don't have a connection there any more."
Myers did not say how many Vietnamese are believed to be living illegally in the United States.
About 6,200 Vietnamese were given final deportation orders before the agreement's completion, and 1,500 more are involved in proceedings to eventually be sent home, she said during a visit to Vietnam.
The repatriation agreement provides steps for the U.S. to deport the Southeast Asian country's citizens who lack required documents, and for Vietnam to receive them.
"Vietnam has actually been a country that has been problematic for a long time, and this agreement we believe marks a new step toward making this process move more smoothly," Myers told The Associated Press.
More than 1.5 million overseas Vietnamese _ the largest population outside Vietnam _ live in the United States. Many fled their native country in boats after the Vietnam War ended in 1975 and northern communist forces took control of the former South Vietnam, which the U.S. had backed.
Critics of the agreement wonder whether this pact won't be rolled back to include others who entered the United States in the 70s and 80s.
"There is concern," said Joren Lyons, a staff attorney with the Asian Law Caucus in San Francisco, which has represented dozens of Vietnamese facing deportation orders. "Vietnam has said for decades no, these people can't be returned to Vietnam, and now they're saying yes. So is this a foot in the door? Will they start accepting people who came earlier as well?"

Sad news.... no body want to live under communist rule.

Oh man, I really do not wish to engage on the politics of undocumented people here in this country. However, being the oldest son of immigrant parents, whom entered the USA via the proper means, I do feel for the plight of people that wish to enter these borders. That, in itself, is another long and debated story. It took my father some long 12 years to bring his immediate family over here.
In a perfect world, I wish that the above referenced article had a better outcome for those that wish to stay here.
I wish that there was a much better solution for the honest hard working people, whom have been law abiding and productive, to find a means to remain here.

no body want to leave their country... no body want to live under communist rules.. that the reason why we go on boat, traveling thousand of miles to look for a new land of freedom. Thai Land pirate captured and rape our women, throw infant into the water, stealing our gold, cut all men throat, kid under 15 became sex slave.... my friend uncle and his wife are illegal here but his kids are citizen...now they don't know wat to do.. either leave his kids here or bring with them....
