Family History
Loon's father left war-torn China in the 1950's where his
village was a battlefield. He was in communist site and they
were fighting the Kuo-Ming-Tang , a lot of people die there.
My father told me that there house were live by soldiers.
The kuo-ming tang planes come to attack and strafing, soldiers
bravely rushed out and fight with those planes, many were
killed by the rear gunners. He observed many horrors, such
as the deaths of hundreds soldiers on the battlefield and
soldier committing suicide because can't go home for his sick
mother, and a plane crashed in the jungle and bodies of crews
hang on the trees. His father fled
from China, and jumped a cargo ship in the harbor. Heavy sea
washed out people on board , some missing in the sea, then
they came to Singapore. From there his family moved to Malaysia.
