Vietnamese family reunited after 40 years
January 21, 2019
They're together again for the first time in 40 years.
A Vietnamese family separated by both an ocean and miles of government red tape reunited over the weekend.
Ai Nguyen and the sisters he brought to the United States last year from Vietnam celebrated at the Hollywood Senior Center.
He tried for years to get U.S. citizenship status for them, but it wasn't until KATU ran a story on the situation that Oregon U.S. Rep. Suzanne Bonamici interceded on Nguyen's behalf.
