War! War! Something that no one in the world wants, but for whatever reason they happen and nobody forgets about them. Every year, on February 17, the press and media in the country and abroad report what a tragedy it was for the Vietnamese of Chinese origin not only in the history of Vietnam but also in the history of humanity. These reports forget or intentionally forget the thousands of Vietnamese women who married Chinese men. Their experience was miserable, if not more so than the Chinese themselves, but they are never mentioned. Thuy, is one of these.
Thuy's life is like a miniature picture of the fate of the innocent, young girls who married Chinese men. Born in the mid-20th century and raised in the uncertain times of Vietnamese society. Thuy experienced many ups and downs during a turbulent Vietnam. Like thousands of other Vietnamese women who married Chinese men, her life would change forever.
....
Through Thuy's story, it helps us remember what happened during a dark period of Vietnamese history, but also at the same time awakens the love of peace in each person. It is human nature to wish for a peaceful world. To live happily together with love and hope the world can exist forever. This life is so beautiful and precious. We have to preserve it.Also from
