Subject: Close RFA program to save our US citizen's tax contribution
Dear Honorable Congressman, Ladies and Gentlemen,
I, the undersigned, Nguyen Phuong Hung, is residing at Orange County, California. For a period time ago I was in Fullerton, and supporting your campaign in your Fullerton office. Your Assistant Mrs. Yang Kim knows me as well as a former Vietnamese Army Ranger Veteran. Hopefully, you still remember me because since I have moved to Westminster, we lost relationship. But my fellows in your area are still supporting you as our good leader to represent us in the house of representative. I was happy to organize 3 consecutive Vietnamese New Year Tet Parades in Westminster which is your presence in all those three events. In the year of 2008, the parade drawn over 15 thousand spectators, biggest parade ever in any Vietnamese parade event in USA, you recognized and witness it.
I am live here in the United States of America for 39 years since I left Vietnam on 4/30/1975 and never enrolled into any welfare system, even in the first day I landed in San Clemente to live with my sponsor, an USMC in camp Pendelton. I am retired, after 28 years to work and contributed all my efforts to settle my new life and paid fully tax to keep our country stronger and stronger. I am also a good US citizen and was only Vietnamese received 2 honor awards from both Westminster and Garden Grove city in 2011.
Today, I am writing this letter to concern about the news regarding on Vietnamese language of RFA (Radio Free Asia). I just learned that the Vietnamese language program of RFA has been cut down to half an hour daily in April, 2014. Concurrently on this occasion, I would like to make a suggestion to request; if you can, shutingwn forever RFA Vietnamese language. Because I contributed my income-tax for 28 years of professional jobs, so I understand the important of our tax system.
Through this requirement (shut down RFA,) Please read the following reasons why has the Vietnamese language program RFA wasted tax dollars of the American people :
1 . The program aims to Vietnam so people can understand and sense of freedom and democracy. But obviously through the exploration of the prestigious Gallup organization, only 18 % of the total 90 million population are tracking program. Actually, people in Vietnam and nobody cares nor understand the views and positions of RFA for Vietnam .
2 . I'm not in Vietnam for 36 years, but from 9/2011 until now, I went to Vietnam 7 times and staying there an average of 3 to 4 weeks . As a journalist, I have explored and observations from Lai Chau Vietnam ( borderline with China) along the border to Ban Gioc Falls, Mong Cai post between Vietnam and China; traveling from north down to Can Tho. I feel Vietnam very peaceful life and free to walk or visit without any questions or escort. Even I was strongly against Vietnam communist for longtime.
3 . With the progress of civilization today is the era of computerization radio listening is increasing minimize radio short wave to start the search is difficult in Vietnam because there is no market for consumption. But that is also easy to understand why many people do not even listen to the radio RFA on short wave radio.
4 . I saw everyone personally as well as my Congressman, our lives have become change the habit. Open up the car radio or CD music, DVD when you get in car. When you get back home, the first thing is turn on the TV watching the news or sports or games . In Vietnam there are literally dozens of TV High Definition multimedia programs for people of all ages, so who need to listen RFA ?
5 . Finally, I would like to speak directly with the congressman, RFA's Vietnamese language programs only broadcast spastic news to listeners without knowing the authenticity of the information. The best news is related to Vietnam has distorted or exaggerated a horrible way. Personally, I own a website named http://kbchn.net, recording 1 million reads per month has been requested RFA to correct the false reports as :
- Mr. " Dieu Cay " Nguyen Van Hai Vietnam prisoner has been severed hand-off by Vietnamese police in October 2011. Today, the whole world knows him " Dieu Cay " was not severed hand-off.
- RFA is a professional agency but not "professional" to carrying out media operations. Why both director Nguyen Van Khanh and Nguyen Ngoc Bich former director of RFA's Vietnamese language program must come toward the Washington Dulles airport to welcome Ms. Nguyen Thi Duong Hang. RFA also reported that her constant lies to America to visit her relatives. There are no one from her relatives has presented ? Why she had to stay in Mr. Bich Ngoc Nguyen's house. Moreover, this time no one knew Nguyen Thi Duong Hang back in Vietnam yet? On what day? Why is the day she came to cheer, excited about the day she left “silence is gold”, no news is good news? Or may be she stays in the United States for good. RFA must report her information, but RFA does not matter regardless things I have asked ?
- Mr. Tran Quang Nhat a former North Vietnam Army Veteran has sent a complaint letter to the RFA, since request is more than 30 days by media law, but there is no words from RFA Board of Director to answer him. On this complaint according to Mr . Tran , RFA has published a letter from one of the reader from Vietnam named " Canh Co" that defamed, libelous and slanderous story with a bad reputation Mr. Tran as person as bad such as: drunk in public and causing unrest. Mr . Tran has complained letter on 29.02.2014 and request RFA make a correction. But the apology was not made and the letter is ignored. The next step, Mr. Tran will file a civil case lawsuit to restore his honor and compensation.
Dear Honorable Ed Royce, Ladies and Gentlemen,
United States legal system does not accept individual personal insult, so probably RFA have the right to fabricated a letter of someone insults Vietnam veterans, an our former enemy? As a media agency RFA know it is wrong and must make an apologize . A sorry of the media sure is not difficult because this has happened so often in the press in the United States. Unless RFA despise his audience. 6 . Moreover, today Vietnam and US are progressing the good relationship to diplomacy that President Barack Obama gave up phrase "comprehensive strategic partnership." Everyone knows RFA is funded by the U.S. government and taxpayers from the American people. So don't let this relationship is broken.
7 . With good fellowship as we have seen. Number of Vietnamese students up to 14 thousand in 2013 and $ 11 billion on imports of investment as well as the giants like Kentucky Fried Chicken , McDonald, Burger King, Pizza Hut, Starbucks (England,) Dairy Queen ... v ... v ... in Vietnam . I think RFA's Vietnamese program was not fabricated news to gain more listeners. If Vietnam is still as bad as RFA may distort then the U.S. government will not stupid to do business with former enemies. Why do US need Vietnam comprehensive partnership and joined the TPP? Why Vietnam become member of Human Rights Council of UN? You already have the answer for those questions. Please use this money to work more useful because the world still having thousands of starving children in Africa than is heard on news reports misrepresent pointless .
Best regards and many thanks your honorable congressman taking the time to read this letter.
Sincerely yours,
Editor-in-Chief Nguyen Phuong Hung KBCHN – http://kbchn.net 1-714-469-2445 thacmac52@yahoo.com
