00:00:00Welcome back to our documentary.

00:00:30Hello Hello is an image of African people.

00:00:34African people look like Asians.

00:00:36They write and speak like Americans.

00:00:38Their religion is like Spanish.

00:00:40Their society is full of cultures of all races.

00:01:00If you see Viet Thao sitting on a horse-drawn carriage like this,

00:01:17you think that Viet Thao is somewhere in Australia.

00:01:20But in fact, this is Manila.

00:01:22Only Manila has this type of carriage.

00:01:24Manila has two types.

00:01:25Carretera has four passengers,

00:01:28and Caleza has two passengers.

00:01:30In the past, only people in power or nobles could ride this type of carriage.

00:01:35Or even more, only experts could ride this type of carriage.

00:01:40Ordinary people could not ride it.

00:01:42This is also one of the cultures that the Spanish left for the Philippines.

00:02:25This is Pedecab.

00:02:38It is also a very popular carriage in the Philippines.

00:02:40It is like a tricycle,

00:02:43but it is replaced by a motorbike.

00:02:45This carriage is very popular because Africans are very lazy to walk.

00:02:49A 50-kilometer-long road can take a few minutes to walk,

00:02:51but Africans do not want to walk.

00:02:53They prefer to sit on the Pedecab,

00:02:55wait until they reach their destination, then change the carriage.

00:03:23To solve the problem of cleanliness, beauty and the protection of the city's life,

00:03:27the city government has allowed the construction of public houses right on the streets of Manila

00:03:33for the people of the Philippines.

00:03:36This is also a unique feature that only Manila has.

00:04:24Let's take a picture.

00:04:32Let's take a picture.

00:04:48I am now at Palawan refugee camp in the Philippines.

00:04:51There are a lot of Vietnamese people who used to live here.

00:04:54A lot of Vietnamese people are now living all over the world.

00:04:57Few people come back to Palawan to visit the old town.

00:05:00Today, I would like to invite you to follow me,

00:05:03and next to me are Mr. Hai and Mr. Tai,

00:05:06who are young people who have lived for a long time in Palawan refugee camp.

00:05:11I hope that this trip will bring back some memories

00:05:16for the Vietnamese who used to live in Palawan refugee camp.

00:05:22This is the old security gate.

00:05:25The Vietnamese were not allowed to enter.

00:05:28They had to wait outside.

00:05:31Behind the security gate is the monkey house.

00:05:34Monkey house?

00:05:36It's a place to hide people.

00:05:38It's a place to hide Vietnamese people.

00:05:41Did you get kidnapped?

00:05:43I was kidnapped when I went to Manila to buy food.

00:05:47I was kidnapped.

00:05:49I was kidnapped.

00:05:52This is the Van Duc pagoda.

00:05:58You can see the lotus pond over there.

00:06:03It is one of the pagodas of the pagoda.

00:06:07This is the lotus pond.

00:06:15In the old days, the Buddha used to make the altar.

00:06:20On the day of the Buddha's birthday,

00:06:22the Buddha made the altar under the lotus tree.

00:06:26This is the place where people used to buy food.

00:06:32There are many shops selling gold.

00:06:34There is a shop selling pickles.

00:06:37In front of the pagoda, people sell pickles.

00:06:39They sell coffee and pho.

00:06:44This is area 1 and area 2.

00:06:46This is the old military camp.

00:06:49How do you know the military camp?

00:06:51I think the only thing left is the coconut tree.

00:06:54In the past, there were many coconut trees.

00:06:56I think the military camp still remembers it.

00:06:59In the past, there was only one coconut tree.

00:07:02Next to it is the pagoda.

00:07:05How do you know if there are any trees left?

00:07:07There is a fish pond and butterflies.

00:07:14Butterflies.

00:07:16Is there any fish left in the fish pond?

00:07:19Is there any fish left in the fish pond?

00:07:21Yes, there is.

00:07:23There are only fish left.

00:07:26Wow.

00:07:30This is the lake.

00:07:32This is the lake.

00:07:33The lake is in Thanh That Cao Dai.

00:07:35This is in Tinh Lanh.

00:07:37You can see the gate in Tinh Lanh.

00:07:42How do you know which gate is which?

00:07:44The gate is still intact.

00:07:46The gate is still intact.

00:07:47Up there, you can see Nguyen Kinh Thanh and the coconut tree.

00:07:53This is Nguyen Duc Me cave.

00:07:56It belongs to the Communist Party.

00:07:59This is the Palace of the Queen.

00:08:07The old ruins are still here.

00:08:09The gate and the gate tower.

00:08:12Up there is the head of the boat.

00:08:14From Nguyen Duc Me.

00:08:22In the past, there was a Vietnamese refugee boat over there.

00:08:28They brought it here as a memorial.

00:08:31It was in the back of the dock.

00:08:34There were 36 people on that boat.

00:08:3736 people died.

00:08:40Only one child survived.

00:08:43That child was moved to the US.

00:08:48Next to the dock, there was a pool for the first and second class.

00:08:53The first and second class came there to wash or bathe.

00:09:03This is a picture of a tamarind tree.

00:09:06I think all the Vietnamese who have lived in Ba La Oanh will never forget this.

00:09:11In the hot summer, all the refugees come here

00:09:16to sit here and talk.

00:09:20In front of that, there was a high-rise.

00:09:23In front of the high-rise, there was a refugee camp.

00:09:27It was a place where the Vietnamese fought 5 times and 7 times.

00:09:31They fought against the Hue Huong kids.

00:09:35They fought for their rights.

00:09:39This is the main road that goes to all the areas.

00:09:44This road goes to areas 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, and 12.

00:09:51There are no more relics here?

00:09:53No.

00:09:55This is the medical center.

00:09:58It used to be the medical center.

00:10:01The medical center is here.

00:10:03The counseling office is down there.

00:10:07In the past, there were STC schools here.

00:10:13This is a primary school.

00:10:16This is a middle school.

00:10:18This is a Vietnamese middle school.

00:10:22How big was the road in the past?

00:10:24It was very big.

00:10:26There were two main roads, this one and that one, to get to the food storage.

00:10:32This is area 3.

00:10:35Area 3 is over there.

00:10:37This is area 4.

00:10:39Area 4.

00:10:41Now, there are only the foundations and the bricks of the bridges left.

00:10:48The bridges are gone.

00:10:51Oh, man.

00:10:54This is two houses facing each other.

00:10:57The area is like this.

00:10:59There are about...

00:11:01Three houses.

00:11:03Six houses.

00:11:05There are about 20 people living here.

00:11:0718 square meters.

00:11:08They built a bridge here.

00:11:12They built a bridge here.

00:11:14They built a bridge here.

00:11:16They built a bridge here.

00:11:18They built a bridge here.

00:11:20They built a gate here.

00:11:24They built a gate here.

00:11:25So, there are about 25 people living here.

00:11:27A bamboo gate.

00:11:29A house like this is about 7 or 8 people.

00:11:36The others have to sleep outside.

00:11:39I used to sleep in the dust.

00:11:41What do you mean?

00:11:43I slept in the dust.

00:11:45When I was late, I had to go to another place to cover my feet.

00:11:52Where did you sleep?

00:11:54I slept on the street.

00:11:58I slept on the street.

00:12:02Did you have a mosquito bite?

00:12:03No, I didn't.

00:12:05I slept on the grass.

00:12:08Did you have a mosquito bite?

00:12:10No, I didn't.

00:12:13When I was late, I had to sleep in the dust.

00:12:17Did you have a mosquito bite?

00:12:18No, I didn't.

00:12:21All that is left is the family's devastation.

00:12:26That is the most recognizable image in the world.

00:12:29That is the water reservoir No. 31 in Bung district.

00:12:34I hope the images that we have just seen will remind the hundreds of thousands of Vietnamese

00:12:38who have surrendered their lives in this Ba La Wang camp

00:12:42to bring back the most beautiful memories of my life.

00:12:58In my show, Life Show in Philippines,

00:13:00I talked about the Vietnamese Pho at Palawan.

00:13:04The Africans call it Chau Loc.

00:13:08The reason why the Africans like to eat Vietnamese noodles

00:13:11dipped in the broth of the Pho

00:13:13is because I'm standing at Anh Hai restaurant,

00:13:16the famous Chau Loc restaurant in Palawan.

00:13:18There are a lot of Africans eating here.

00:13:20I want to invite you in

00:13:22to see why they like to eat Vietnamese noodles

00:13:24dipped in the broth of the Pho

00:13:26and how they feel.

00:13:29Hi, how are you?

00:13:31Okay, sorry to interrupt you. I'm Tom.

00:13:33What's your name?

00:13:35Roy.

00:13:37How are you?

00:13:39What are you eating?

00:13:41Chau Loc.

00:13:43Chau Loc.

00:13:45Do you know what is that?

00:13:47Do you know what is it?

00:13:49Chau Loc.

00:13:51Do you know what is this?

00:13:53French bread.

00:13:55Why do you like to eat Vietnamese noodles

00:13:57dipped in the broth of the Pho?

00:14:00I like to eat Vietnamese noodles

00:14:02dipped in the broth of the Pho.

00:14:04I like to eat Vietnamese noodles

00:14:06dipped in the broth of the Pho.

00:14:08He said it was delicious.

00:14:10He said he felt delicious when he ate it.

00:14:12It was very soft.

00:14:14That's why he likes to eat it.

00:14:16How do you feel when you eat it?

00:14:20It's okay. Delicious.

00:14:22Delicious.

00:14:24Who introduced you to eat Vietnamese noodles

00:14:26with Chau Loc?

00:14:29He introduced me to the business in Chau Loc.

00:14:31So I decided to come home.

00:14:33If you know how to cook,

00:14:35then I would like to learn how to make it for you.

00:14:37If you are not good at it,

00:14:39then I will teach you.

00:14:41If you like it,

00:14:43then we will

00:14:57What did he tell you?

00:14:58My friend.

00:14:59Your friend?

00:15:00Did he come here before?

00:15:01Yes.

00:15:02Okay.

00:15:03So, did he tell you, eat together with chow long?

00:15:06Yes.

00:15:07Okay.

00:15:08That's it, good.

00:15:09Yes.

00:15:10Thank you.

00:15:34You see, Vietnamese people are so greedy.

00:15:40These are the specialties of Vietnam.

00:15:42Pho, right?

00:15:44Banh mi.

00:15:45Banh mi is Vietnamese banh mi.

00:15:47But it has the unique Vietnamese flavor.

00:15:52They put cucumber and other ingredients.

00:15:54But they use these two unique dishes to eat.

00:15:58It's so greedy.

00:16:01To be honest,

00:16:03the first time I ate it,

00:16:05I thought it wasn't good.

00:16:07But after a while,

00:16:09I think it's not bad.

00:16:13OK.

00:16:14In my opinion,

00:16:15if you eat only banh mi,

00:16:18the skin is hard,

00:16:20like the crunchiness of banh mi.

00:16:21Sometimes it will get into your teeth.

00:16:23It's good to eat, it's normal.

00:16:25But when you dip it in the soup of the bowl of pho,

00:16:29which Vietnamese people call congee,

00:16:31the banh mi is softer.

00:16:33It's easier to eat.

00:16:34And this rich, spicy, sour, salty and sweet soup

00:16:37is made by us.

00:16:39It's better to eat with banh mi.

00:16:41It increases the flavor of banh mi.

00:16:43But I think

00:16:45this bowl,

00:16:47which Vietnamese people call pho,

00:16:49they don't know how to enjoy it.

00:16:51This bowl,

00:16:53we have to call it soup.

00:16:56We have to call it congee.

00:16:59We have to call it congee.

00:17:01So from now on,

00:17:02if you go to eat pho,

00:17:04remember to buy a bowl of meat.

00:17:05Eat to see how it feels.

00:17:17This is green mango.

00:17:19If you want to drink green mango,

00:17:21it's green mango.

00:17:23This is one of the unique drinks of African people.

00:17:27Most Vietnamese people usually drink

00:17:29mango juice.

00:17:31The difference between green mango and mango juice is

00:17:34mango juice has a lot of sugar.

00:17:37While green mango has a lot of vitamin C and less sugar.

00:17:40It's still better than mango juice.

00:17:44I've never seen Vietnamese people

00:17:46drink green mango juice.

00:17:47The way to do it is very simple.

00:17:48Peel the mango,

00:17:50cut it and put it in a blender.

00:18:00Of course, if you like sour,

00:18:03you can just grind it.

00:18:05If you don't like sour,

00:18:07you can add sugar.

00:18:12Add a little salt,

00:18:14to reduce the sourness.

00:18:17Add a little water,

00:18:19because if it's too dry,

00:18:21it will be hard to grind.

00:18:33There are two ways to drink green mango juice.

00:18:37Some people like to grind green mango,

00:18:39and leave the pulp.

00:18:43Some people like to grind it,

00:18:45and leave the pulp.

00:18:47So when you drink it,

00:18:49you can feel the sour taste.

00:18:51Or you can grind it into juice.

00:18:53Then you can add ice water.

00:18:55It depends on how much you like to drink.

00:18:57Thick or thin.

00:19:13This is green mango pulp.

00:19:23The interesting thing is

00:19:25when you drink green mango juice,

00:19:27it's sour, sweet,

00:19:29and salty.

00:19:31And when you drink it,

00:19:33the pulp in your mouth is chewy.

00:19:35It's delicious.

00:19:37This is green mango pulp.

00:19:39It's sour, sweet,

00:19:41and salty.

00:19:43And when you drink it,

00:19:45the pulp in your mouth is chewy.

00:19:47It's delicious.

00:19:53Taxi.

00:19:55In Africa, the roads are very narrow and crowded.

00:19:57And the most convenient means of transportation

00:19:59for African people

00:20:01on short and narrow roads

00:20:03is Tricycle.

00:20:05Tricycle is a three-wheeled car,

00:20:07and is the symbol of transportation

00:20:09Where are you from?

00:20:115.5 pesos per wheel.

00:20:13It's cheap.

00:20:155 pesos is equal to 10 cents.

00:20:17It's fast.

00:20:19It's fast.

00:20:25Tricycle is the cheapest

00:20:27transportation vehicle in Africa.

00:20:29Each wheel is 5 pesos long and short.

00:20:31But when it comes to long distances,

00:20:33it's 15 to 20 pesos,

00:20:35less than 5 dollars.

00:20:37Tricycle is the symbol of transportation

00:20:39for African people

00:20:41on short and narrow roads.

00:20:43It's the most unique vehicle in Africa.

00:20:45And each Tricycle

00:20:47is a three-wheeled car.

00:20:49On the left,

00:20:51there are motorbikes,

00:20:53such as Suzuki, Honda, Yamaha,

00:20:55or other motorbikes.

00:20:57On the right, there is a box

00:20:59for passengers to sit in.

00:21:01There are two passengers in the back,

00:21:03but it can be divided into three.

00:21:05A driver and a passenger can sit in the back.

00:21:07A Tricycle,

00:21:09a driver and a passenger

00:21:11can sit in the back.

00:21:13There are 10 passengers

00:21:15in the back.

00:21:17Each Tricycle has a different color.

00:21:19It depends on the owner

00:21:21of the Tricycle.

00:21:23But African people are very

00:21:25artistic and happy

00:21:27in their lives, even though they are poor.

00:21:29They can write on the Tricycle

00:21:31their favorite symbols.

00:21:33For example,

00:21:35they can write

00:21:37God bless you,

00:21:39God bless our way,

00:21:41or I'm a happy people.

00:21:43Or they can write

00:21:45their name on the Tricycle.

00:21:47In short,

00:21:49Tricycle is

00:21:51the most unique vehicle

00:21:53in Africa.

00:21:55It's the most unique vehicle

00:21:57in Africa.

00:22:03It's hard to ride,

00:22:05but it's easy.

00:22:07When I was a kid,

00:22:09I could ride it because

00:22:11I used to ride a pig.

00:22:15This is the most

00:22:17famous Tricycle.

00:22:19But if you don't know

00:22:21how to ride a Tricycle,

00:22:23you don't know

00:22:25how to call it special.

00:22:27In Vietnam, there is a motorbike Tricycle.

00:22:29In Thailand, there is a tuk-tuk.

00:22:31And we also called it

00:22:33Tuk-tuk in Vietnam.

00:22:35In Vietnam, there is

00:22:37a lorry named

00:22:39the Tanker in Vietnam.

00:22:41It's the most

00:22:43famous vehicle in Africa.

00:22:45I like to talk about

00:22:47the Tricycle

00:22:49because it's

00:22:51so easy to ride

00:22:53and difficult to stop.

00:22:55In Vietnam,

00:22:57there is a Tricycle

00:22:59The typhoon is hitting China and it's hitting the Philippines.

00:23:02From June to September, in just three months,

00:23:05the Philippines will have to face a typhoon of 25 to 35 degrees.

00:23:11I hope that the typhoon will pass soon so that we can continue filming.

00:23:16The typhoon is outside, but the typhoon is inside.

00:23:20That's not my money, okay?

00:23:24On the roads of Africa, from cities to villages,

00:23:28the colors are all over the place.

00:23:30It is also a symbol of the national culture of the Philippines.

00:23:34That is the red Jeepney.

00:23:36The red Jeepney.

00:23:48This car reminds me of a Vietnamese slalom.

00:23:53What slalom? It's so small.

00:23:55I know.

00:23:56A slalom can carry about 10 people.

00:23:585 people on each side.

00:24:00They sit opposite each other like this.

00:24:02But the front is longer.

00:24:04This is a Vietnamese slalom.

00:24:06It's called a slalom because it's a slalom.

00:24:08That's right.

00:24:09It's also called a Jeepney.

00:24:10Jeepney.

00:24:11Jeepney comes from the name G.I. Jeep,

00:24:14which is a car that the US military left in Africa after the war.

00:24:18A lot of them.

00:24:19What do they do now?

00:24:20They can't just leave it.

00:24:21So, the Africans created and made G.I. Jeepneys

00:24:24to be the jeepneys today

00:24:26to carry passengers on long-distance journeys.

00:24:31Why is it called a Jeepney?

00:24:33It's one of the symbols of the Filipino culture.

00:24:35Look at it.

00:24:36It's colorful.

00:24:37What color does the owner like?

00:24:39There are poems, wishes, and prayers written on the outside.

00:24:44Like,

00:24:45My wife, I love you so much.

00:24:49On the car, the music is always loud,

00:24:53like a festival, not a jeepney.

00:24:56People talk to each other.

00:24:58Even the most famous stories in Africa are told to make people laugh.

00:25:02It's like a festival.

00:25:03And this car,

00:25:05wherever a jeepney goes, the whole family follows.

00:25:07So, the whole family,

00:25:08at first, we thought that

00:25:09the husband would drive,

00:25:10then the wife,

00:25:11then 5 or 7 children,

00:25:12then where to put the passengers.

00:25:13In fact, they put the family's car in front of the driver.

00:25:17So, when passengers get on a jeepney,

00:25:20they know whose car it is.

00:25:22Therefore,

00:25:23tourists,

00:25:24especially Vietnamese,

00:25:26want to know the most specific features of African culture,

00:25:30where, how,

00:25:31it's better to get on a jeepney.

00:25:33Just a short trip

00:25:35can show all the unique features.

00:25:42Now, I'm standing at Honda Bay,

00:25:44which is a place for African people

00:25:48to stay in Palawan

00:25:50to go on picnics abroad.

00:25:52Vietnamese people are the same.

00:25:53On weekends,

00:25:54or when they're free,

00:25:55they also have fun

00:25:57and gather here to go to the islands.

00:25:59And this time,

00:26:00when I heard that my delegation

00:26:01came to do a documentary,

00:26:02which is a documentary for Van Son Center,

00:26:04they suggested to hold a picnic

00:26:06to invite my delegation to join.

00:26:08I would like to invite you

00:26:10to join a picnic

00:26:11with Vietnamese people

00:26:13in Palawan.

00:26:53Are you hungry?

00:26:55Excuse me.

00:27:00You work in a grilling procession, right?

00:27:05I used to sell grilled meat in Western the good.

00:27:08I used to sell grilled meat in Western the good.

00:27:09So you have been selling grilled meat for 10 years.

00:27:11Yesterday I said I forgot.

00:27:13This is the place

00:27:15that tourists go to

00:27:16This is the place

00:27:17that tourists go to

00:27:19to have this picnic.

00:27:20to have this picnic.

00:27:21I thought it was just a few families, 5, 7 or 10 people because we usually go out like this.

00:27:27But I didn't expect that there were nearly 100 people who came here before us.

00:27:31That's a very special thing.

00:27:33Maybe this is the busiest day.

00:27:35It's a family reunion.

00:27:37What?

00:27:38It's a family reunion.

00:27:39It's a family reunion in Vietnam.

00:27:41Vietnamese people used to live in Africa.

00:27:51Maybe at that time, they were always worried about their livelihood or waiting for the day to settle down.

00:27:55They didn't pay attention to it.

00:27:56And they didn't know that where they lived, there were creatures living under the sea.

00:28:01The biggest, rarest, and most expensive creatures in the world.

00:28:05The world's largest elephant fish is found in Africa.

00:28:10There are 488 coral species in the world.

00:28:15There are about 12,000 species in Africa.

00:28:17And the rarest, most precious, and most expensive species are also found in Africa.

00:28:25Even the largest and smallest males are also found in Africa.

00:28:29The smallest one is Pichidom, 0.1 mm.

00:28:33And the biggest one is Dachnagigas, 0.25 mm.

00:28:39It weighs up to 400 kg.

00:28:41In 1934, a Filipino navigator found in Palawan,

00:28:48the world's largest male elephant in the belly of this species.

00:28:52This male elephant weighs up to 14 pounds and is 9.5 inches long.

00:28:57Its diameter is 5.5 inches.

00:28:58Its price in 1984 was up to $42 million.

00:29:03This elephant is estimated to be about 600 years old.

00:29:07You see?

00:29:08Even in the desert, I didn't know there were such special species.

00:29:33This is a cow skin fish.

00:29:43Its skin is very thick.

00:29:44In the U.S., this fish is used for fishing.

00:29:47While here, a lot of people use it to eat.

00:29:49The whole fish is grilled.

00:29:51The skin is peeled off to eat the meat inside.

00:29:58This cow skin fish was not eaten by Africans before.

00:30:00Very few.

00:30:01Only a few poor people.

00:30:02When people were drunk, they tried to eat its liver.

00:30:05The liver was very delicious.

00:30:06It was delicious in a special way.

00:30:08People passed it on to each other.

00:30:09And now, cow skin fish has become a specialty and a food of the world.

00:30:13In Palawan, 1 kg is about $1.

00:30:17But in Manila, it's about $10 per kg.

00:30:20If you compare the salary of a normal person working in Africa

00:30:24and a normal person working in the U.S.,

00:30:26if you want to eat this cow skin fish,

00:30:28it costs more than $100 in the U.S.

00:30:32It's very chewy.

00:30:33It's hot.

00:30:44It's very chewy and delicious.

00:30:46I don't dip it in anything.

00:30:47It will be more delicious if I dip it in something.

00:30:49Get me a chicken wing.

00:30:52It's delicious.

00:30:53It's like a piece of chicken breast.

00:30:55But it's softer.

00:30:57It's delicious.

00:31:00Give me a piece.

00:31:02Watch it carefully.

00:31:03Don't cut it.

00:31:06Don't cut it.

00:31:11I, Viet Thao, and all the members of the crew today

00:31:15thank you very much

00:31:19for giving me, Viet Thao, and all the members

00:31:22a very special party

00:31:26on a beautiful beach.

00:31:29Once again, I would like to thank all of you

00:31:33and wish all of you

00:31:37good luck

00:31:39and a safe trip to Dinh Cuong.

00:31:42Yes!

00:31:48I hope that Vietnamese people all over the world

00:31:52are watching this video

00:31:54and share it with other Vietnamese people in Palawan.

00:31:58In the future, I would like to come here

00:32:01and have a picnic with you

00:32:04on this island in Palawan.

00:32:06If I don't have a chance to meet all of you,

00:32:09I will meet one by one or individually.

00:32:11But that individuality is a great joy

00:32:14because that meeting is not in Palawan

00:32:16but somewhere else in the world.

00:32:19That's it.

00:32:24Thank you very much.

00:32:25Thank you very much.

00:32:26Thank you.

00:32:27Thank you.

00:32:28Thank you.

00:32:29Thank you.

00:32:30Thank you.

00:32:31Thank you.

00:32:33Thank you.

00:32:34Thank you.

00:32:35Thank you.

00:32:36Thank you.

00:32:58That's it.

00:33:00The chicken fight is held in Palawan, the Philippines.

00:33:05This is a sport of the Philippines.

00:33:09It is a national sport.

00:33:10The people of the Philippines love to play with chickens.

00:33:13The chickens have to knock on the door.

00:33:15Not only do they knock on the door with a knife,

00:33:17but also with a knife.

00:33:19They can kill the chickens with just a knife or a knife.

00:33:22They are knocking on the door right now.

00:36:38Welcome to the Round River

00:36:40After 20 minutes by boat on the sea, we have reached the area of the Round River

00:36:44But not yet, we have to go a long way to get to the river

00:36:53We just need it to move

00:36:57How much is it here?

00:36:58You go up close

00:36:59Let it move

00:37:00There

00:37:03Wow, there is a crocodile

00:37:08Why is there only one left?

00:37:16Does it bite?

00:37:17No, it doesn't bite

00:37:18You take it

00:37:19Pretend to eat

00:37:21Pretend to take a branch and eat it

00:37:23Pretend to eat

00:37:32Sit down

00:37:39Why do you eat it all?

00:37:43We used to eat it with our stomachs

00:37:53It's gone

00:37:54It's gone

00:37:57Poor thing, it's looking for it

00:37:59It's looking for it

00:38:00It's all banana leaves

00:38:02Hello

00:38:03Why does it eat bananas?

00:38:05This is the only monkey in the Philippines

00:38:07It eats crab meat, crab meat, crabs

00:38:09Oh my God

00:38:17Wow, it hugs it

00:38:21Oh, so cute

00:38:22Long-tailed monkeys are all over Southeast Asia

00:38:24But especially the long-tailed monkeys that only look for crabs, crabs, cows and whales

00:38:29It's only in the Philippines

00:38:31Look at the star

00:38:34Look at the banana

00:38:39It's over there

00:38:40Over there is a cave

00:38:41It's only a few minutes' walk from here

00:38:45Then we go down to a small boat and cross the river

00:38:48Over there is the river

00:38:51Underground river

00:38:53We start to walk there

00:39:04Crab

00:39:28When we enter the cave, we see many bats

00:39:31Bats are flying everywhere

00:39:33At first, I thought they were bats

00:39:35But when I looked closely, I saw them on the wall

00:39:38Then I knew they were bats

00:39:39They fly everywhere like bats

00:39:41And the bats are hanging upside down

00:39:43With two legs and head down

00:39:45When I passed by, I saw that there were no mosquitos in this cave

00:39:49Even though there was water and it was dark

00:39:51When it was dark, people could see the fish

00:39:54Completely blind

00:39:56Even though they had eyes

00:39:57Because when the fish was born, it was in the dark

00:40:00They couldn't see from small to large

00:40:02So they had eyes but they couldn't see

00:40:08The water flowed through the earth

00:40:11Through the rocks

00:40:12Then it poured into the rocks to form the mud

00:40:15Then it formed special shapes

00:40:17With different colors

00:40:18And maybe by a miracle of nature

00:40:21It formed shapes like Maria

00:40:23The shape of the Virgin Mary

00:40:28The shape of the Virgin Mary

00:40:31The shape of the Holy Family

00:40:33The shape of the candle

00:40:38Then there was a long line on the mountain

00:40:40With all kinds of vegetables

00:40:41Such as cucumber

00:40:43Then there was banana

00:40:44Cucumber

00:40:45Mushroom

00:40:47Mushroom

00:40:48There were also papaya

00:40:49Then there were special shapes of natural insects

00:40:52For example, there was a bird

00:40:54I'm going to catch some fish

00:41:04Right there, right there

00:41:05The sexy lady

00:41:06Her name is Sharon

00:41:07Okay

00:41:10Her name is Sharon

00:41:11Sharon is the name of a woman who became a sexy lady

00:41:16Very beautiful

00:41:19The highest point of the Underground River is 65 meters

00:41:23That's the highest point

00:41:24And the depth

00:41:26The length of the river is 8.2 kilometers

00:41:29But now we can only go up to 1.5 kilometers

00:41:32When we get there, we look

00:41:34There is another cave that goes deeper

00:41:36It can go deeper than 4.5 kilometers

00:41:38People have been there

00:41:39And it's even longer

00:41:40People haven't been there yet

00:41:41But they are not allowed to go further

00:41:42People have to wait

00:41:43Check for safety before letting tourists in

00:41:46Hopefully in the future

00:41:48The Underground River

00:41:49Allows us to go deeper

00:41:51Maybe 4-5 kilometers

00:41:53Or go all the way along the 8.2 kilometer long road

00:41:56There will definitely be more amazing surprises

00:42:01In a special river

00:42:03Famous for being the richest in the world in Palawan

00:42:05That is the Underground River

00:42:21Wow

00:42:23Wow

00:42:26Wow

00:42:28Wow

00:42:30Wow

00:48:55Right there

00:48:56Right there

00:48:58From there, Lang has become an attractive place for foreigners and tourists to come to learn about Vietnamese culture.

00:49:06Until now, there are only about 150 people living here temporarily.

00:49:10Because Lang is quite far from the city, food is not convenient, so many people leave their village to go outside to make a living.

00:49:18One of the reasons Vietnamese people have to leave the village is that the water in the village is poisoned by mercury.

00:49:25This is the aquarium that the Americans have discovered.

00:49:30It's about 2km away from the Vietnamese village.

00:49:32Aquariums are very toxic to the human body.

00:49:35They can be contaminated by drinking water,

00:49:37or even by the fish.

00:49:39If you eat the fish, you can still die because of the aquarium.

00:49:43Another unfortunate thing is that the water

00:49:45runs to the Vietnamese village and goes through this aquarium.

00:49:48So the water in the Vietnamese village is all contaminated.

00:49:50And people can't use it anymore.

00:49:52Vietnamese people want to use clean water to drink,

00:49:54but they have to go 10km away from the village.

00:49:56It can be very difficult.

00:49:58This is also one of the factors

00:50:00that makes Vietnamese people have to go somewhere else to make a living.

00:50:08Currently, the majority of the people living in the village are Vietnamese.

00:50:11They are the workers of the bakeries.

00:50:14And some Vietnamese continue to stay in the village

00:50:17because they can't go outside to make a living.

00:50:23Hello.

00:50:26Hello, Ms. Xuan.

00:50:28Yes.

00:50:29You haven't gone to sell yet?

00:50:31Not yet.

00:50:33This is Ms. Xuan,

00:50:35one of the people who used to sell rice.

00:50:37And now she continues to sell rice in Palawan.

00:50:40From her farm to outside.

00:50:42Ms. Xuan, can I come in?

00:50:44Are you ready to sell?

00:50:46Yes.

00:50:47What do you sell?

00:50:48I sell shoes, shirts, and pants.

00:50:52I sell shoes, shirts, and pants.

00:50:55I sell shoes, shirts, and pants.

00:50:58I sell shoes, shirts, and pants.

00:51:01I sell shoes, shirts, and pants.

00:51:04How much do you sell for one?

00:51:05250,000 VND.

00:51:07I buy it for 1 million VND.

00:51:09I buy it for 1 million VND.

00:51:11When do you get the money?

00:51:13I get 10, 20, 15,000 VND a day.

00:51:15I sell it on the first day.

00:51:17How do you remember how much you sell?

00:51:19I write it down in my notebook.

00:51:21I remember I get the money every day.

00:51:23Because I'm used to selling.

00:51:24Where is your notebook?

00:51:25It's here.

00:51:27So you've been doing this for 6 years?

00:51:29Yes.

00:51:31It's all torn up.

00:51:32Yes, it's all torn up.

00:51:33I can't give it back to you.

00:51:35I can't give it back to you.

00:51:37How many rolls do you have?

00:51:39About 60 to 70 rolls.

00:51:4160 to 70 rolls.

00:51:43Since when?

00:51:44Since 1998.

00:51:47Since 1998.

00:51:52Most Vietnamese in Africa live on the street.

00:51:56Although they have to work hard to make ends meet,

00:51:59it's not an easy job.

00:52:01They have to buy necessities for a normal life,

00:52:05such as shoes, oil, wind, clothes,

00:52:08to bring back to the poor people in Africa.

00:52:13These poor people can't afford to buy necessities,

00:52:18so the rich Vietnamese let them buy and give back.

00:52:22Most of them can sell high-priced goods to make ends meet.

00:52:25Since you started selling, you've been able to buy this house?

00:52:28No.

00:52:29I rent it.

00:52:31It's 1,000 baht.

00:52:331,000 baht is not enough.

00:52:341,000 pesos.

00:52:3520 dollars.

00:52:3620 dollars a month.

00:52:38So you pay for it every month?

00:52:40Yes.

00:52:4150, 30, 20 dollars a month.

00:52:44The landlady lends me 20 dollars.

00:52:47I give her 20 dollars.

00:52:48I lend her 50 dollars.

00:52:49It's only 1,000 baht.

00:52:50So you sell goods to make ends meet,

00:52:53but you don't have enough money?

00:52:55Yes, I don't have enough money.

00:52:56I give her 1,000 baht.

00:52:57Sometimes she doesn't buy.

00:52:59She takes it away.

00:53:00She doesn't give it back.

00:53:01She gives it back.

00:53:02This house is 250 square meters.

00:53:0380 baht.

00:53:04She gives me 20 dollars.

00:53:0510 dollars.

00:53:065 dollars.

00:53:077 dollars.

00:53:08I give it back.

00:53:09I don't have enough money.

00:53:10How can I pay the landlord?

00:53:1180 baht a month.

00:53:12I don't have money.

00:53:13I don't pay the landlord.

00:53:15Sometimes the landlady gets mad.

00:53:17If I don't have money, I sell it to the landlord.

00:53:20I give it back to her.

00:53:21I give it back to her.

00:53:23So you don't sell it to her anymore?

00:53:25What do I get out of selling?

00:53:26I get what I need.

00:53:28I don't have anything left.

00:53:31I sell it to the landlord.

00:53:33I have enough to live on.

00:53:35I have to accept this one's fate.

00:53:38The rest of the Vietnamese in Africa continue to sell new goods for their children, in order to get back their old debts.

00:53:43Although they can't get back all of their old debts, they still have a part of it to make a living.

00:53:49How much is this?

00:53:50How much is this?

00:53:51It's 6,000 VND.

00:53:52I bought 20 of them.

00:53:55You can eat 3 fishes a day?

00:53:56Yes.

00:54:01What about this one?

00:54:02This one is for the cat.

00:54:04The owner of the store gave it to me.

00:54:07I bought it a few years ago.

00:54:09This one is for the cat?

00:54:11Yes.

00:54:12Why do you have more cats than me?

00:54:14Because they eat a lot.

00:54:16Why do you have more cats than me?

00:54:21Do you feed the cats?

00:54:22Yes.

00:54:23I feed them all.

00:54:25But you are so poor.

00:54:26You have to feed the cats.

00:54:28Because they are so poor, I only have enough food for them.

00:54:32You have to feed them.

00:54:33If I don't feed them, they will cry.

00:54:39Where is the soy sauce?

00:54:45I'm a saleswoman.

00:54:46I can sell a lot of things.

00:54:48I'm in trouble today.

00:54:52There is no one to help me.

00:54:53I have to sell food every day.

00:54:57I don't have any money to buy medicine for my wife.

00:55:12I don't have any money to buy medicine for my wife.

00:55:16I don't have any money.

00:55:25Are you able to help your mother in Vietnam?

00:55:27Yes, I could, but it simply wasn't enough for her.

00:55:33She's sick, can't take the medicine on her own, and she's won't make a decent living.

00:55:38If I had enough money to buy alcohol,

00:55:41It's been a long time since I've been home.

00:58:05It's been a long time since I've been home.

00:58:07It's been a long time since I've been home.

00:58:09It's been a long time since I've been home.

00:58:11It's been a long time since I've been home.

00:58:13It's been a long time since I've been home.

00:58:15It's been a long time since I've been home.

00:58:17It's been a long time since I've been home.

00:58:19It's been a long time since I've been home.

00:58:21It's been a long time since I've been home.

00:58:23It's been a long time since I've been home.

00:58:25It's been a long time since I've been home.

00:58:27It's been a long time since I've been home.

00:58:29It is.

00:58:33I owe you a lot.

00:58:35I owe you a lot.

00:58:37I owe you a lot.

00:58:39I owe you a lot.

00:58:43So I'm going.

00:58:45So I'm going.

00:58:59I hope that some of the images we have seen, from the Palawan refugee camp to the Vietnamese village Underground River, as well as some of the scenes that we have seen,

00:59:17some of them bring back beautiful memories for the Vietnamese who have once stayed on this Palawan land.

00:59:23And I hope that in the near future, you will come back to Palawan again as a tourist rather than as a refugee.

00:59:34Goodbye.

00:59:36Thank you.

00:59:37Now, Thao and I will go to Ba Ta.

00:59:53Olongapo, Olongapo City.

01:00:02Now, Thao and I are in Olongapo, a city full of memories for the Vietnamese who have once lived in Ba Ta.

01:00:12In the past, when I was in Ba Ta, every Saturday or Sunday, the camp allowed the refugees to come out here to shop, shop, take pictures, or make a phone call to their families in the US or Vietnam.

01:00:28So, almost every weekend, I often take my girlfriend out here.

01:00:33Who is your girlfriend?

01:00:34My girlfriend is now the mother of my child.

01:00:38I'm kidding.

01:00:40In the past, when you came to Olongapo, you had to take a picture.

01:00:44You had to take a picture with the sign that said Olongapo.

01:00:47You had to stand under the sign and the person who took the picture had to stand up and say Olongapo City.

01:00:55Now, let's go have breakfast.

01:00:58After breakfast, I will take you to the VIPC camp.

01:01:01Then, we will look for the old memories of the VIPC camp.

01:01:04Okay.

01:01:11This is the gate where the first Vietnamese came to this camp.

01:01:16It still has the word Ba Ta on it.

01:01:18Technology.

01:01:19Ba Ta, Technology Park.

01:01:23In the past, if you look at these images, do you remember the word Ba Ta and Technology Park?

01:01:32I don't remember.

01:01:33In the past, when I was brought here from Malaysia, this camp was very open.

01:01:40I don't know what Ba Ta and PRVC is.

01:01:44I don't understand.

01:01:45But after a while, I understand what it is.

01:01:48Do you go to and from the camp by this road?

01:01:50I go to and from the camp by this road.

01:01:52But I don't have to go to and from the camp.

01:01:55Because this is the camp.

01:01:56So, if you want to go out of the camp, you have to have a permit from the camp to go out.

01:02:01For example, if you want to go to Olongapo or Manila, you have to go to and from the camp within a day.

01:02:06If you are late.

01:02:07Or you have to go back.

01:02:10If you are late, you will be punished.

01:02:12I haven't been punished yet, so I don't know.

01:02:14Or if you need to go out of the camp, you need to go out of the camp in case of emergency.

01:02:31I didn't expect to come back here.

01:02:35How do you feel?

01:02:45I didn't know anything at that time.

01:02:49You didn't know how to kiss, did you?

01:02:53Let's go in there.

01:02:55So, now I have to go in there?

01:02:57Yes.

01:02:58Let's go in there.

01:03:00Now, I'm standing in the middle.

01:03:04In front of me, this is the area of District 2.

01:03:09Every morning, there is a bus that takes me to my house.

01:03:14Then I take this road to school.

01:03:18This is District 4, and this is District 2.

01:03:20There used to be a church here.

01:03:24There is a bus stop here.

01:03:26And a little further down, there is a house for filming.

01:03:31Most of the films are filmed by the monks.

01:03:36This is District 1.

01:03:40This is District 1.

01:03:42There used to be a boat here.

01:03:44Right next to these two trees.

01:03:45A very small boat was broken.

01:03:48There is a road that goes down to District 3.

01:03:53There is a road that goes through a four-sided pagoda.

01:03:58There is a market down there.

01:03:59District 5 market.

01:04:00District 5 market.

01:04:01Now, I can only see the four-sided pagoda.

01:04:06When I get there, I will stand there.

01:04:09Now, I am standing in front of District 3.

01:04:11This is probably the people of Cham and Cambodia.

01:04:15Lao people.

01:04:16Lao people.

01:04:17Cambodians live here a lot.

01:04:19Every time anyone goes to this area,

01:04:21goes to the market,

01:04:22District 5,

01:04:23or takes a bath in the spring,

01:04:24the family always takes a picture of a memorial here.

01:04:27There are many people who come here to pray

01:04:30and hope to go to America soon.

01:04:32There are many people who come here to pray

01:04:33and hope to go to America soon.

01:04:35There are many people who come here to pray

01:04:36and hope to go to America soon.

01:04:37There are many people who come here to pray

01:04:39and hope to go to America soon.

01:04:45Now, I am standing at the exact spot

01:04:47where the 216th building is located.

01:04:49The 216th building is here.

01:04:51There is a way to go down there.

01:04:54The characteristic is this wall.

01:04:56Every noon, families come here to sit.

01:04:59There are always people coming

01:05:01and hitting,

01:05:02This is 216, that is 215, and there is a road that goes straight to the pagoda.

01:05:14I think you can see it.

01:05:18I have a picture with my friends.

01:05:20They are all in the same class, but I don't know why everyone is taller than me.

01:05:27It's the same now.

01:05:30When I was little, I thought this place was very big.

01:05:33I didn't think it was that small.

01:05:37Lao people and Vietnamese people come here to record their history.

01:05:40What about Vietnamese people?

01:05:42There are many.

01:05:43The pagoda of the Vietnamese Monk is located in District 7, District 8, and District 9.

01:05:49There are many big pagodas in Vietnam.

01:05:51Cut a whole monkey house for Vietnamese people.

01:06:01Every time I go to school, I come here to study.

01:06:05If I don't study, I go to sleep.

01:06:07It's so cool here.

01:06:09It's so cool here.

01:06:11There are a lot of trees.

01:06:13It's so cool here.

01:06:15It's so cool here.

01:06:17It's so cool here.

01:06:18It's so cool here.

01:06:19It's so cool here.

01:06:31I hit my head.

01:06:52This pagoda was built by Lao refugees in January 1988.

01:06:58Most of the pagodas in Bataan area no longer have a shield.

01:07:04There are no barriers for pagodas to avoid the wind and rain.

01:07:09Some pagodas were broken.

01:07:12Because some African people thought that Vietnamese people or teachers hid gold in the pagodas.

01:07:19So they broke those pagodas to get gold.

01:07:21And it really didn't exist.

01:07:23Because of that, some pagodas still exist today.

01:07:37My mom didn't let me go out in this area.

01:07:40She didn't let you go out?

01:07:41It's dangerous, right?

01:07:43This is a pagoda of Lao people.

01:07:48This is the area of Dung Sau.

01:07:50Some buildings are here.

01:07:52And Dung Sau is over there.

01:07:55When I was here, I woke up in the morning.

01:07:59I ran.

01:08:01I wore sportswear.

01:08:03I ran to Dung Nam market.

01:08:05I bought an ice cube.

01:08:06At that time, I made a coffee machine at home.

01:08:08I broke an ice cube and put it in a cup of coffee.

01:08:11I drank it and went to school.

01:08:14This pagoda was built by Lao people in Bataan area.

01:08:19This is a pagoda of Lao people.

01:08:22This pagoda is a memory of my hometown.

01:08:27I heard that this pagoda was built in a month.

01:08:31How long did it take to complete?

01:08:33It took 586 days.

01:08:37Okay.

01:08:38This is Central Warehouse Group.

01:08:42The first people who came here

01:08:46had to come here to collect mud.

01:08:50This is also a place to distribute food to all the people here.

01:08:55Each building represents a family.

01:08:58People come here to collect all the food.

01:09:01Then they divide the food into 10 houses.

01:09:05They divide the meat and fish.

01:09:07Have you ever argued with each other?

01:09:10Of course.

01:09:12It happens every day.

01:09:14Why?

01:09:15Because the people who come here

01:09:17have to divide the meat and fish.

01:09:21Some people have to cut the fish.

01:09:23Some people have to cut the fish.

01:09:24Some people have to cut the fish.

01:09:26That's why we argue with each other.

01:09:28All the people in Bataan know that

01:09:31we eat mud fish.

01:09:32Mud fish.

01:09:33Mud fish.

01:09:34Mud fish.

01:09:35Mud fish.

01:09:36Mud fish.

01:09:37Mud fish.

01:09:38There are many Vietnamese people

01:09:40who come here and

01:09:42suffer from poverty.

01:09:46Maybe they are happy in Vietnam

01:09:50but they suffer here.

01:09:52But for refugees like us,

01:09:55from Phu La Vi Dong, Malaysia,

01:09:58to here,

01:09:59it's like going from hell to heaven.

01:10:02We have enough food every day.

01:10:04We don't have to spend money.

01:10:06We have rice, oil, fish sauce, soy sauce.

01:10:10We don't need anything else.

01:10:11We just need to eat.

01:10:12In 6 months here,

01:10:14my brain is very...

01:10:19I don't have to worry about anything.

01:10:21I just have to wait.

01:10:22I'm sure I'll go.

01:10:24Especially when my family is here.

01:10:26I'm sure I'll go in 6 months.

01:10:28During that time,

01:10:30I just have to wait.

01:10:31It's the same for refugees and refugees.

01:10:34But the situation of Vietnamese people is totally different.

01:10:37In Ba Ta An,

01:10:39we just enjoy, study,

01:10:41and worry about the future.

01:10:43Tomorrow, when we move to another country,

01:10:46I'm sure I'll go.

01:10:48While other Vietnamese refugees in Ba La Wang

01:10:52have a different situation.

01:10:54They don't know where their future will go.

01:11:05OK.

01:11:06This is the road that leads from District 1, District 5.

01:11:10Every time I go to school,

01:11:12I walk from up there to here.

01:11:16Because District 7, 8, 9, 10 are like this.

01:11:18From District 5 to here,

01:11:20I hope to go to this road.

01:11:21Xie Bang Road.

01:11:22Xie Bang Road is here.

01:11:23Because when I go outside,

01:11:24it's a plastic road,

01:11:25but it doesn't have a cool shade.

01:11:26When I go in here,

01:11:27it has a cool shade.

01:11:29Can you see it?

01:11:30The mango trees are very big.

01:11:32There's a shop in this mango field.

01:11:34Vietnamese call it the mango tree shop.

01:11:36Where is it?

01:11:37It's here.

01:11:38It's right here.

01:11:39The shop is right here.

01:11:41How do you remember it's right here?

01:11:43There's a water pump.

01:11:44It's like a water pump over there.

01:11:46There's a water pump over there.

01:11:47All the water pumps,

01:11:48all the water pipes run here.

01:11:51This shop is where

01:11:54all the face-to-face meetings,

01:11:57birthday parties,

01:11:59or group meetings are held here.

01:12:01Who is the owner of this shop?

01:12:03I am.

01:12:04You are?

01:12:05Yes.

01:12:06I still have a photo of you and your family

01:12:09with the Vietnamese Red Riding Hood

01:12:11in the face-to-face meeting.

01:12:13It's also in this mango field.

01:12:15Here.

01:12:17On this side of the field,

01:12:18is the church.

01:12:20The church is very big.

01:12:21There's no light at night.

01:12:24So this is the ideal place

01:12:26for people

01:12:28to have a romantic time in Ba Tan.

01:12:31Especially in District 7.

01:12:32District 7 and District 9 are very close.

01:12:34Why?

01:12:35Why only District 7 and District 9,

01:12:37but not other districts?

01:12:38Because they're close to each other.

01:12:39District 7 and District 9 are close to each other.

01:12:42And this church

01:12:44is very big at night.

01:12:47There's no light at all.

01:12:48So couples usually sit here

01:12:50and talk to each other at night.

01:12:52Then they plan for the future.

01:12:53They go to America

01:12:54and get married.

01:12:57Does anyone plan to get married here first?

01:13:01Very few.

01:13:03Because it's only 6 months here.

01:13:05So they go to America first.

01:13:07So they wait to go to America

01:13:08before getting married here.

01:13:09The problem is that

01:13:10you can't have a wedding here.

01:13:11Because when you come here,

01:13:12each family has their own house.

01:13:14So when you come here to have a wedding,

01:13:15it means that you have to build a house.

01:13:17It means that

01:13:18you have to use more paper

01:13:20and it's more difficult.

01:13:27It's raining.

01:13:31If we don't wait for the rain to stop,

01:13:34we don't know when we can finish this documentary.

01:13:36So we have to film it now.

01:13:38Now, let me tell you.

01:13:40This is Giang Hanh Pagoda.

01:13:43In front of us is District 7,

01:13:46and over there is District 8.

01:13:48And up there is called Testing Center.

01:13:51All the first people who come to this park

01:13:54have to come there to test

01:13:56how good their English is

01:13:57so that they can pass the test.

01:13:59There are no umbrellas here.

01:14:01There are no umbrellas at all.

01:14:03And it's very cool here.

01:14:05Not many people come here

01:14:07to enjoy the coolness.

01:14:09They pray here.

01:14:14My mother has been here for 15 years.

01:14:18I used to come here

01:14:20to pray for my mother.

01:14:25This is a pagoda.

01:14:29In the past, there was a big umbrella.

01:14:32This is the main gate.

01:14:34And that's the temple.

01:14:36But in the past few months,

01:14:40they don't have umbrellas here anymore.

01:14:43The main gate is the main gate.

01:14:45A small gate,

01:14:47a small house in America.

01:14:50a very small house in the United States.

01:14:54While many pagodas grow like mushrooms,

01:14:57big and expensive,

01:14:59there are pagodas built for millions of dollars.

01:15:02And while there is a very small shrine here,

01:15:04there is no part to cover the rain and sun for the Buddha statue.

01:15:08I think that Buddhists should also think about this.

01:15:20Okay.

01:15:21Over there is the testing center.

01:15:25And this is district 8.

01:15:27We are in district 8.

01:15:28Opposite to district 8 is the Hong Duong Monastery.

01:15:34The Hong Duong Monastery was built by Vietnamese

01:15:37in Ba Tang village.

01:15:39It has a straight roof,

01:15:40a dragon,

01:15:41and a cross.

01:15:43It is a symbol of Vietnamese.

01:15:46Although it is very simple,

01:15:47it is also a symbol of Vietnamese

01:15:51living in Ba Tang village.

01:16:10This is the entrance of Ba Tang village.

01:16:12When I lived here,

01:16:15I often joked that this was district 11.

01:16:18Why is it called district 11?

01:16:19Because there are 10 districts in total.

01:16:21This is district 11,

01:16:23not the other one.

01:16:24The other one is district 10.

01:16:27Later, when people came here,

01:16:29in 1992,

01:16:30they named it district 11 and 12.

01:16:32Then they changed it to district 13.

01:16:36Now, there is only one witness.

01:16:40There are only some pagodas left.

01:16:44There are many graves below

01:16:47that have no names,

01:16:49no age,

01:16:50no family.

01:16:52Those who came here

01:16:54tried to find a comfortable life,

01:16:58a free life.

01:16:59But they stayed here

01:17:02and died in a situation

01:17:03in a human body.

01:17:05They died but were not buried.

01:17:09There are many people

01:17:11who hear about PRPC,

01:17:13but don't know what it means.

01:17:15It stands for

01:17:17Philippine Refugee Professing Center.

01:17:22It is PRPC village,

01:17:24Ba Tang.

01:17:25What is this place?

01:17:27This is Freedom Plaza.

01:17:31There is a stage here.

01:17:35There is a stage here.

01:17:37This stage is for

01:17:39New Year's Eve,

01:17:41New Year's Eve,

01:17:43Christmas,

01:17:44Vietnamese New Year.

01:17:45There will be music here.

01:17:47I have been here from October to April.

01:17:51From October 1989 to April 1990.

01:17:54So there are Christmas,

01:17:57New Year's Eve,

01:17:58and Vietnamese New Year.

01:17:59So there is a lot of music here.

01:18:01It is fun to perform here.

01:18:03People come here for free,

01:18:05so there is nothing to do.

01:18:06At night,

01:18:07there are more than 10,000 people

01:18:09who come here to watch.

01:18:12What did you sing?

01:18:15I sang a play.

01:18:17Do you still remember?

01:18:18Yes, I do.

01:18:22When I was living here,

01:18:24it was cycle 136.

01:18:26At that time,

01:18:27there were Ms. Ngoc Tan Thanh,

01:18:29Van Son.

01:22:22and a boat that Vietnamese people used to cross the border to come here.

01:22:27There are also pictures of houses that used to live in Pataan.

01:23:29I have to explain it to her.

01:23:31I have to draw it for her to understand.

01:23:34In Vietnam, we call it VXO.

01:23:36It's Vesco.

01:23:37But I don't know what it is.

01:23:38We don't call it a three-wheeler.

01:24:37She held my hand when we went out in the afternoon.

01:24:40She kissed me.

01:24:42I didn't know if it was a boy or a girl.

01:24:45How old were you?

01:24:47I was 1 year older than her.

01:24:50I still have a photo before I left.

01:25:15When you saw her face, you knew she was gone.

01:25:17But she was not.

01:25:19Then, I went down.

01:25:20She was gone.

01:25:21She was long gone.

01:25:22You didn't see her face.

01:25:23Right.

01:25:24You didn't see her face.

01:27:41When Mrs. Ngoc Tan Thanh moved to Circle 134,

01:27:46Mrs. Ngoc Tan Thanh lived in Phu Long, Vietnam.

01:27:48When she moved here,

01:27:50she wrote a letter to someone

01:27:53saying that she was living somewhere.

01:27:55When she moved to VAPC,

01:28:45In the back,

01:28:47every house has a toilet.

01:28:49Where is it?

01:28:51It's not here.

01:28:53It's not here, but it's an old house.

01:28:55There are many houses behind here

01:28:57that grow vegetables.

01:28:59This is my house.

01:29:01When I first moved here,

01:29:03there was nothing in the back.

01:29:05I had to dig up rocks and grass.

01:29:07I had to grow vegetables.

01:29:09I had to grow tea, chili, lettuce,

01:29:11green cabbage.

01:29:13So every afternoon,

01:29:15when we had lunch,

01:29:17everyone would come

01:29:19and say,

01:29:21Son, can I have a chili, please?

01:29:23Can I have some vegetables, please?

01:29:25All kinds of vegetables.

01:29:41Never be late.

01:29:43Yes, sir.

01:29:45This is a monkey house.

01:29:47The monkeys

01:29:49are locked in here.

01:29:51If Viet Thao was here,

01:29:53she would be locked in here.

01:29:55She's like a monkey.

01:29:57Let's go inside.

01:29:59Open the door.

01:30:01Open the door for me.

01:30:07I have to go this way.

01:30:11This ship used to be

01:30:13outside Freedom Plaza.

01:30:15Vietnamese people

01:30:17used to stand in front of this ship

01:30:19to take pictures.

01:30:31According to the information here,

01:30:33this ship was in Nha Trang

01:30:4320 women

01:30:45and 11 children.

01:30:49and went to the sea.

01:30:51In about a week,

01:30:53this ship

01:30:55came back

01:30:57to life

01:30:59in the sea.

01:31:01It was stronger

01:31:03than this ship.

01:31:11at the coast of Morong

01:31:13in Bataan

01:31:15just in time

01:31:17for the storm to hit.

01:31:19If they were late,

01:31:21they could have died

01:31:25After that,

01:31:27they arrived in the village.
