He was raised by his parents and grandmother, to whom he attributes his belief in the importance of a strong nurturing family. Quyet is the sixth out of twelve children; he has 5 other brothers and 6 sisters, three of whom passed away in Vietnam. His father was involved in politics for freedom for Vietnam. However, in 1963, his father ended his political involvement and worked as a rice market seller. Quyet was very close to his siblings; he recalls the family activities during the summer when everyone was together. Those he was closer to his father, Quyet's fondest memory of his mother was when she gave him a handkerchief to remember her by when he fled Vietnam. His childhood memories include going to church everyday with his grandmother (his aunt was a nun) and having annual family reunions for Tet at the oldest relative's home. He notes that he still continues the tradition today. Quyet's favorite food was \"canh banh ??a rau cei.\" No one in Quyet's family served in the military during the Vietnam War, however, in 1977, one of his older brothers was arrested by Viet Cong authorities for allegedly opposing the Viet Cong government. The family did not know his location for 5 years; when he was released, he passed away during his attempt to flee the country by boat. After 1975, Quyet attended Tram Hang school and the local school in the village. His family had lost all their property and possessions due to the invasion of the communist government. Quyet was put in a special class apart from the other students due to his family history with father being involved in politics. Schools in Da Lat soon after closed, and Quyet was transferred to schools in Nha Trang and then Vung Tau. His family began to make the transition into Saigon; due to all air transportation to Saigon being cancelled from Da Lat, his family was forced to make a month-long journey by foot, first to Nha Trang then into Saigon. Quyet attempted to flee Vietnam by boat (\"vuot bien\") 30 times before successfully leaving the country. He was often sick in Vietnam with an unknown ailment and symptoms including coughing blood, yet he proceeded to flee the country. Quyet was on the boat for 5 days before arriving at a refugee camp in the Philippines; he recalls the boat being very full, to the extent of suffocation and death among several of the refugees on the boat. Many, including himself, were close to suffocation and death until land was spotted where they were transported to receive medical help. Quyet remained at the refugee camp for 19 months. He recalls that life in the camp was adequate and comfortable, however, all refugees worried about the uncertainty of the future. Everyone was always anxious and awaiting for their turn to interview to leave the camp. Quyet was transferred to Singapore before arriving to the Houston, Texas in the United States. Upon arrival to the US, Quyet attended school during the day and took on alteration jobs at night. However, he was not adequate at alterations and soon got a job at McDonald's. During his visit to the doctor for a physical, Quyet discovered that he was at the critical stage of kidney disease and had to immediately begin dialysis treatment. Since then, Quyet has received two kidney transplants, the most recent being donated by his own wife. Quyet was inspired by the care and attention given to him by his doctors and medical professionals that he also pursued the medical field, stating that he wished to do something that would contribute not only to his own life but would help the people around him and his country. Today, Quyet is a medical doctor in the optometry field. Quyet met his wife in 1992 through his younger sister; today, they have two sons. Quyet emphasizes his belief in a strong community, especially in the Vietnamese community in Houston. He believes that united community is crucial for the preservation of Vietnamese culture and roots for future generations."},{"label":"Abstract","value":"This recording and transcript form part of a collection of oral history interviews conducted by the Vietnamese American Heritage Foundation and donated to the Chao Center for Asian Studies at Rice University.
