From OC Weekly:
The debate over aid to Vietnam is an old one, but [Bao] Nguyen isn't a screamer satisfied
by long-winded rants. He's a congenial, soft-spoken but determined first-term mayor
who is a Buddhist fluent in three languages. He was born in a Thai refugee camp shortly
after his parents fled South Vietnam in the wake of the April 1975 communist takeover.
He grew up in Garden Grove and graduated from UC Irvine.
