When Kevin was realized as a person, the Vietnam War was already going on.  The noise in the sky which was thundered by jet fighters, transport planes and helicopters. The scary noise of artilleries being fired and bombs being exploded in near distance were always interrupted his peace moment of life from day to days until he left for Thailand in 1979. Kevin was so tired of being refugees, leaving one's home or village to the others constantly in the first 15 years of his life.  In 1979, Kevin decided that he no longer wanted to hear any more noise from guns, artilleries and bombs that he left Laos for good.  Kevin's brother, Moua, was in Thailand first and he wrote a letter to Kevin.  He said," My dear brother, you have to leave the jungle of Laos.  You have to come over to Thailand and think about being resettled in a third country. The war in Laos is not going to stop any time soon.  The fighting will keep going for a long time and the killings by the Lao Communists will continue until there is no more freedom fighters fighting against them.  Gen. Vang Pao would not be returned any time soon, either.  I suggested that you come to Thailand due to the fact that I will not come back to Laos for fear of being killed.  The longer you remain in Laos, the dangerous you are. I know you are concerned about our family, but since they are being captured by the Lao Communists and returned to the village they should be fine. You are the one that everyone is concerned about.  So, you should leave Laos soon as you can while Thailand is still accepting Hmong Refugees.

Kevin and his 5 cousins then decided that they should leave Laos for Thailand for their own safety.  On February 27, 1979, Kevin and his 5 cousins (Chongkoua, Saidang, Chueker, Toua, Smidchei) arrived in Thailand safely even though a half of his group were killed while swimming across the Mekong River by Vietnamese and Lao Communist soldiers. Kevin got to the Nong Khay Refugees Camp on March 3rd, 1979.  Kevin and his brother moved to Vinai on July 27, 1979.  They registered with UNHCR and were accepted to resettle in USA on January 15, 1980.  They arrived in Chicago, Illinois on January 23, 1980. Kevin and his brother Moua attended Wheaton Central High School, then North High School in Eau Claire, Wisconsin.  Kevin went back to Illinois and attended Glenbard West High School in Glen Ellyn, Illinois.  They both graduated from High School in 1983.  Kevin Attended College of Du Page then transfered to Northern Illinois University. His brother, Moua, attended UW Barron, Rice Lake, Wisconsin then transfered to UW-Eau Claire. In 1985, the rest of Kevin's family finally came to the United States, joining Kevin in Illinois. In 1987, Kevin was hired by USCC as Case Manager to work with the new refugees. On May 19, 1992, Kevin then got married to Chao Moua, a divorced girl.  On August 14, 2004, Chao left Kevin back to California. On May 17th, 2005, Kevin then went to Laos to engage with Sheng Goa-Ia Vue, who later betrayed him by refusing to claim her VISA to enter the United States and then fled with her boyfriend, Somchai Kunkaeo to Phou Phaman, Khonkaen, Thailand.

A friend of Sheng Goa-Ia Vue said that she was married to a Lao-Hmong for only a month and a half after she returned to Laos then got divorced again. Now she is dating another one, Thai Yang from the village of Liaxat. Thai Yang is known to be a very abusive husband who beated his ex-wife three times a day until she divorced him. Her new marriage to a new guy is happy. Sheng Vue will be abused if she ever decide to marry him.

Whoever date girls oversea, I want to share some real stories about girls from Laos:
01. I personally was scammed by Sheng Goa-Ia Vue and her cousin, Mai Moua, for several thousand of Dollars. They claimed the money was to start a small business, for their education, job training courses, and living costs. I later found out they didn't even go school nor attend any job training.

02. A Hmong man thought he had a good relationship with a single girl in Laos. They chic chat over the phone for over a year before he went to Laos to meet her in hope of getting married to her. He found out she was some one else wife. He lost several thousand Dollars. Her husband even tried to arrest him for having affairs or adulteries with his wife.

03. A Hmong man arrived in Vientiane, Laos to meet his lover only to be robbed by her and her husband. As the man arrived at the hotel where his suppose to be a lover agreed to rent a hotel room for them. The Hmong American man found a man in the hotel waiting. He ask the Hmong American man if he found a girlfriend in Laos. He said, "Yes, this is my lover." The Laotian Hmong then told him that the woman is his wife then they took off with his wife still carrying all his money, passport, and other belongings.

04. A Hmong man chic chat with a girl in Laos for over a year. At the end, she made a false claim that she passed her interview with the US Embassy in Laos and was just about to leave for USA. She asked for several thousands of Dollars for her plan tickets and for other process fee, but she disappear after he sent her six thousand Dollars. He found out that she got married to her boyfriend after she received the money. There are several girls who posted their pictures on Tojsiab.com to look for lovers. Most of them are scammers or someone else wives. It seems that most girls in Laos just want money and better life. My family in Laos told me that they couldn't find this girl in the village she told me she lives. Iab Mim Yaj of Paj Dej Ntsuab

Those who are married, shall never date or spend money for girls in Laos. It is best to spend your money for your wife or lover in USA who is truly giving you the love you can see and feel. Girls in Laos not only are scammers, but also has diseases that can transmit to you when you sexually contact with them. See my health advice to the left column for further information.
