Re: Mr. Cha’s act of bravery

Dear Mr. Cha:
We are the organizing members of the Committee to Save Vietnam from China Campaign. It has come to our attention that early this year in January, you and your crew braved a fierce storm in the East Sea in answer to the distress call of the fifteen Vietnamese fishermen whose boat was capsized. It was our understanding that there were patrolling Chinese vessels in the vicinity, but they didn’t bother to rush to the rescue. Instead, you and your crew risked your lives to combat the elements and to elude those patrolling Chinese vessels before you could reach our fellow Vietnamese.

We were very gratified to learn that for your humanitarian deed and act of bravery, the International Maritime Organization is to confer to you the Award for Exceptional Bravery at Sea. The ceremony is going to be in London, England this September of 2009.

We would like to salute your bravery and to register our gratitude on behalf of the Vietnamese people.

Sincerely,

Le Quang Long in Auckland, New Zealand
Nguyen Hung in Sydney, Australia
Ngo Khoa Ba in Houston, Texas, the United States
