    Dude actually wrote a proper, coherent letter in Chinese… if I am the teacher he is getting full marks for sure

    I live poorly here.

    Working conditions are not good, welfare is lacking.

    But do not worry, there are only 10 serious incidents at work everyday, and I am very careful.

    We opened a small stall, business is not bad.

    Although I do not know English well, I can roughly understand what the white men are saying.

    Hope to make a living and succeed! I will work hard here and take care of my body.

    How are you guys doing?

    I miss you guys a lot and hope to meet again.

      I immigrated to Vietnam in 2012. Even though government and society was much more welcoming than this case, the overall experience was… not that different!

      Maybe immigration is just a pretty awful experience overall.

      Surprised that the message was accurate instead of being gibberish or even asemic.
