(The Guardian)Fifty years on, Lam Tac Tam reflects on life in Australia as the first Vietnamese refugee to arrive by boat
Release Date

Summary
In 1976, the Lam brothers fled postwar Vietnam by boat and reached Darwin after a 16-day journey, becoming Australia’s first Vietnamese refugees. With local support, they built new lives through hard work and later contributed to their community. Their arrival marked the beginning of a larger refugee movement, with nearly 100,000 people from Indochina arriving in the following decade. While Australia once welcomed such refugees, its policies have since become far more restrictive.
