Special Feature: The story of a refugee family

We are back in podcast form for 2018. Thank you for your patience, with a studio move and a change in our structure its taken us some time to get to where we are today, but we start podcasting once again with a truly inspirational interview with local man Duy Huynh.

In this very special Asian Pop Radio podcast, we speak to the man who, with his family were refugees who left Vietnam for a better life in very turbulent times. Duy speaks of the journey he and his family took via boat, to Australia and the difficulties those on the boat endured, some of whom did not make it to land again.

Duy also speaks of happier times where his grand mother effectively introduced the world to the concept of Bánh mì, pretty much a stable go-to food for lunch times in Australia today.

This podcast highlights the importance of welcoming refugees of all backgrounds, how our society has changed for the better with thanks to years of migrants making Australia their home and provides an example of a success story that changed the face of fast food locally.
