Mrs. Thanh Lan interviewed Mr Ho Ngoc on March 15th
2014 in “The symposia forum to present the current situation in Vietnam” room.
Mr. Ho Ngoc Phuoc: Dear
Mrs. Thanh Lan and all of you. Mr. White Buffalo, nicknamed “Beef Beef” or “Must Life” is the person that designed the
leaflet distribution machine. He volunteered to work with me and Mr Nguyen Ngoc
Cuong in the past. At the moment, Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Cuong is arrested in Vietnam. All I am
telling you today is the complete truth; Mr. White Buffalo and I have worked
together for a very long time on this leaflets distributing machine which has
substantially impacted Vietnam.
Mrs. Thanh Lan: Could
you please confirm that Mr. White Buffalo is Mr. Tran Anh Tuan, a current
refugee in Thailand?
Mr. Ho Ngoc Phuc: Yes
ma’am. White Buffalo is Mr. Tran Anh Tuan, a refugee in Thailand. I know very
well how he escaped to Thailand and how is currently living. I am presently
downloading the audios that we have recorded together and will send them over
to Mr. Tran Anh Tuan. This will allow him to have important record to present
and work with the UNHCR relating to his political asylum.
Mrs. Thanh Lan: As
you previously mentioned, Mr. Tran Anh Tuan has collaborated and worked with
you and another person named Nguyen Ngoc Cuong (currently imprisoned in
Vietnam). You and Mr. Tuan met on Patalk right? What was the name of this
forum?
Mr. Ho Ngoc Phuc: Yes
he and I met on Patalk; the name of the forum is called “Vietnam and the
problem today” – I am the organizer of this forum.
