With admiration and respect for Professor Hoang Minh Chinh, the Secretary General of the Democratic Party of Vietnam (DPV), as well as the Vietnamese tradition, a U.S. doctor who went to Vietnam to attend Professor Chinh's funeral was interrogated and forced out of the country. On Feb. 15, 2008 at 3 PM, one day before the funeral, the Vietnam government ordered a team of police to enter the Sheraton Hotel in Hanoi and forced Dr. Nguyen Thi An Nhan to the nearby Police station and interrogated her for more than six hours. Finally, they escorted her to the airport and demanded she leave the country that night, Feb. 15, 2008. Dr. Nguyen Thi An Nhan joined the Democratic Party of Vietnam (DPV) on June 1, 2006, when Professor Hoang Minh Chinh officially declared the reestablishment of the DPV. She also is one of the doctors who took care of Professor Hoang Minh Chinh when he was in the United States in August 2005 for cancer treatment.    more »
