- Si Dai Le ay isang dating refugee na naging miyembro ng Australian Parliament o MP, na kumakatawan sa komunidad ng Fowler sa NSW.
- Nang matapos ang Vietnam war Abril 1975, kabilang si Dai le, kanyang mga kapatid, ina at kaanak ng ina sa libu-libong Vietnamese ang tumakas sakay ng barko dahil sa takot sa political persecution.
- Inalala ni Le ang masasayang alaala ng kanyang kabataan sa Pilipinas, tulad ng pagkain ng pandesal at pag-akyat sa puno ng bayabas, habang taos-puso niyang ipinapahayag ang pasasalamat dahil ginawa ng bansa ang lahat upang mabigyan sila ng pansamantalang tahanan at ipadama ang tunay na kabutihang-loob at malasakit ng mga Pilipino.
Despite the circumstances that we were all in, at least there’s part of my childhood that’s beautiful... the Philippines really did the best they could to provide for the Vietnamese refugees, and I am forever grateful.Dai Le, MP of Fowler, NSW
