I learned my mum's identity via SMS
My Huong was evacuated from Vietnam to Australia as a 4-year-old. The long search for her birth family would prove to be a 鈥榬ollercoaster ride鈥�
In the last chaotic days of the Vietnam War, thousands of children were sent away to be adopted in safer countries. Four-year-old My Huong went to Australia and it would be many years before she returned to Vietnam and finally uncovered the extraordinary truth about her birth family. This interview was first broadcast in December 2018.
