Aprašymas

The Vietnamese Australians: Motherland Fatherland gives the readers an insight into Minh Hien and her family's journeys to Australia and Minh Hien and her husband's educational and teaching journeys, inspired by Baha'i and Buddhist teachings. It recounts the Vietnamese cultural activities, people, and places that have featured in Minh Hien's life. It also shows how the Vietnamese Australians celebrate peace through golf and the specific cultural symbolisms of the Vietnamese traditional dresses with embroideries and their associated colours. It documents for posterity what it was like to grow up during the war, to leave motherland in dangerous journeys to Australia in pursuit of higher education and then return to fatherland to assist others in their educational quest and to celebrate peace. The stories are told through numerous colourful photographs.
