Because of these deplorable conditions. more than 1 million Vietnamese have chosen to leave their country to escape the Communist rule. The Vietnamese people love their homeland. as they did not leave their country during the famine in 1945 which caused 1 million deaths from starvation. or during the 30 years of tter warfare that followed. No doub. about it. the Communists now have driven the Vietnamese people from their homeland. facing danger and death on the high seas and possible mistreatment in refugee camps. Most refugees would rather stay in the refugee camps under the most difficult conditions than to be repatriated to Vietnam. These glaring facts speak for themselves. We cannot reward such clear violations of basic human rights by allowing the loan to Vietnam.
