Another Viet satellite TV station?

Tuesday, April 1st, 2008

Just got a second source to confirm that Little Saigon Radio, the most popular Vietnamese-language program in Orange County, is planning on a 24-hour Vietnamese TV station.

The TV program, tentatively named ”Hon Viet“ (Vietnamese Soul) will be transmitted by satellite, most likely DirecTV. Little Saigon Radio is already on DirecTV, audio only.

There are currently two Viet TV programs on DirecTV, SBTN and Viet Hai Ngoai (VHN). Not to mention the commie station fed from Vietnam, VTV4.

Little Saigon Radio has a competitive advantage to both SBTN and VHN: Being a later-comer, Hon Viet would benefit from the already existing Vietnamese-American DirecTV subscriber base. In addition, whereas the ad sales forces for SBTN and VHN are basically centered in Orange County, Little Saigon Radio also has a sizable, functioning and productive sales force in Houston, Texas - the 2nd largest Vietnamese-American enclave.

This news has been spreading around Little Saigon for a while, coming even from employees of LSR. But it’s only now that the Bolsavik confirmed with reasonably high-ranking people. Both sources declined to be named and agreed only to be identified as “close to the management and Board of Little Saigon Radio.”

Im memoriam of little child

Tuesday, April 1st, 2008

A Vietnamese-American first-grader was killed in a Grand Rapids, Michigan auto accident caused by a habitual drunk driver.

The fatal head-on collision occurred as Andy Nguyen, 6 years old (pictured), was coming home from a trip to the mall with seven children from three families on Saturday afternoon. The Grand Rapids Press reported here:

“As the friends were on their way home around 8 p.m., a Toyota Corolla driven by the Comstock Park man … sideswiped another eastbound vehicle, police said. It then crossed into oncoming traffic and struck the Toyota Camry driven by Phi Kim Vo, 18, police said.”

Vo, a senior at Kelloggsville High School and a member of its tennis team, was still in critical condition on Monday March 31. Her two brothers, ages 6 and 13, Andy’s brother age 7, and a friend age 13, were treated at local hospitals and released. Andy died the day after the crash.

Andy’s sister Jenny Nguyen, 9, was in serious condition but was upgraded to fair, reported WOOD-TV here.

Jenny still didn’t know her brother had died. “When they were pushing her by the gift shop, she wanted to get something for her little brother,” reported the Grand Rapids Press.

The man who caused the accident was taken to the hopsital. Police said they would arrest the man when he is released from the hospital.

According to police, the 29-year-old driver from Comstock Park, Michigan, “has two previous convictions for drunken driving, Secretary of State records showed. He did not have a valid license, and was driving another person’s vehicle.”

The hardest part is asking for help....
