Title

Interview of Chak Beh

Description

This interview chronicles the immigration progress of Chak Beh in his peregrination toward America. Chak left Malaysia in 1979 as a result of the ethnic discrimination that he faced; as a minority he was subjected to the biased laws of the ruling majority. Currently Chak is an avid fan of cooking and woodworking as well as raising his three sons. Chak tells a fascinating story of his trials, hardships, and successes – all of which led him to become the person he is today.
