1-Echangeriez vous votre nationalite contre la nationalité VN ?
VietNamNet Bridge (First foreigner granted Vietnamese citizenship) Andre Menras, a retired French teacher, is honored to be the first foreign man granted Vietnamese nationality in November 2009, with a Vietnamese name Ho Cuong Quyet.
[...] A reporter of the L’Herault du Jour newspaper questioned Menras: “If you attend a sports game between Vietnam and France, what team does your heart beat for?”
Menras answered: “In cases when I have to make difficult choices, people often ask me: Hey Andre, are you French or Vietnamese? Like the song of Josephine Baker, I have two loves. In prison, when I heard stories of Frenchmen like Henri Martin, Madeleine Riffaud or Raymonde Dien, who fought colonialism, I really felt I’m French. When I fought against the prison wall of French colonialism, I felt I’m Vietnamese.”
He continued: “My first roots in terms of biology are western, but my Vietnamese roots grew up from revolution and struggling. These roots are very important because it is my youth. So please don’t ask me to choose that which cannot be separated. If there is a sports game, I don’t have to choose because Vietnamese people don’t play rugby!”
