How many POW's are estimated to still be in Vietnam?
968723
Zero. In the 90s Senators John McCain (a former POW) and John Kerry went on a fact finding tour of Vietnam and issued a bipartisan report  finding that Vietnam was not holding any POWs. For most of the reality based world, the Vietnam war has been over for over thirty years. There is no reason to hold POWs after a war is over.

I do not understand exactly what you mean, but I suspect you are asking when did large numbers of Vietnamese come to Australia. Obviously, there were probably a few people from many different countries in Australia, but this probably wouldn't require the question you ask. So, when you refer to when, I will take it you mean large numbers.\n\nAfter the Americans (and some of its allies) left Vietnam in  1975, there was no one to fight against the Communist North Vietnamese who were waging war against the South. We were fighting against the North and when we left, there was no one to help the Southerners. Eventually, financial support and training also was removed from the South, while the North was receiving all it needed from it's allies. The North was simply to strong for the South and the North won. The northerners began to kill many from the south. The Southerners took to the sea in small fragile boats to escape the bloodshed. Hundreds of thousands fled. Many of these people wound up in Australia and in the United States. \n\nThis was after 1975. Many of these people weren't automatically given citizenship, but they were still living in countries like Australia, which is just to the south of Vietnam. It took in about 300,000 Vietnamese.\n\nThis is all from my general knowledge, but here is a good site that can explain some of the events.

Official figured from the Army on Vietnam service and ethnicity state the following:\n\n88.4% of the men who actually served in Vietnam were Caucasian, 10.6% (275,000) were black; 1% listed as others.\n\nIn the United States, according to the 1970 census, 87 percent of the population was categorized "white", 11.1 percent "black", and 5.9 percent "hispanic."\n\nIt would seem that "white" soldier were overrepresented by about 1 percent, "black soldiers" underrepresented by about .5 percent and hispanic soldiers by about 4 percent.  Of course, one has to assume error in both the census and the Army's tallies, so I would say that the ethnicity of the United States was probably well represented.  The socio-economic status of soliders was not, though.\n\nOther statistics:\n* 86.3% of the men who died in Vietnam were Caucasian (includes Hispanics); 12.5% (7,241) were black; 1.2% belonged to other races.\n* 170,000 Hispanics served in Vietnam; 3,070 (5.2% of total) died there.\n* 86.8% of the men who were killed as a result of hostile action were Caucasian; 12.1%\n (5,711)were black; 1.1% belonged to other races\n\n* 14.6% (1.530) of non-combat deaths were among blacks.\n* 34% of blacks who enlisted volunteered for the combat arms.\n* Overall, blacks suffered 12.5% of the deaths in Vietnam at a time when the percentage of blacks of military age was 13.5% of the total population.\n* Religion of Dead: Protestant--64.4%; Catholic--28.9%; other/none--6.7%. \n\nDisclaimer:taking advice from a person using Bubba as a screen name could be hazardous for your health.

Yahoo Search Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam. That might help. You'll find out more doing it that way instead of this Yahoo Answers because all you'll get is a bunch of BS.

Unfortunately that number is decreasing everyday. You could try contacting the American legion they might have a number. The only numbers I could find were in 2004 there were 4 million alive but they are dying at a rate of 1100 a day. But there was another undated article that said 65,000.

US combat troops were involved in the war from 1965 until their official withdrawal in 1973. During this period, 17% of South Vietnam inhabitants were killed. The war ended on April 30, 1975 with the military conquest of the South by the North.\npls chech the spellindg of vietnam

Not much. I suspect that the majority of their "65,000" members are buried in graves dated between 1939-1945 throughout Western and Eastern Europe.

Hard to say.  Before it was Viet Nam it was French Indo China and the Viet Namese (CONG) were called the Viet Minh after Ho Chi Minh.  Casualty estimates posted above do not include those killed in the Pre-USA invlovement may not include Americans that were there as "advisors", civilians, Cambodians, Laotians, Chinese, and Russians.  The numbers are apalling
297643
Way too many, I would assume hundreds. A vast majority of this scum buckets killed again after being freed.

Interview a couple of veterans.  I was six or seven years old when hostilities started, but was involved in the evacuation of Saigon in 1975.\n  Go to Google.\n  Go to your local library.\n  Keep an open mind and realize that there are no truly unbiased opinions.  It was a war.  Don't let anybody white-wash it or demean those of us who went over there by referring to it as a 'conflict'.

I'm sure somebody used em to describe Vietnam.   I think, though, that the issue they're talking about is our responsibility to provide stability in government. The removal of Saddam created a very real power vaccume in Iraq. (question of right/wrong in doing so aside) Simply leaving after getting Saddam, would have drawn even more condemnation from the world. The world would  be screamin at us for NOT doing something to help them. As it is, they're screaming at us FOR doing somehthing. Whether or not what we're doing is effective, is another story.

At the present there is no local yahoo site for Vietnam.\n\nAnyway, I'm sure yahoo does some sort of statistical analysis before opening a local site.\n\nAccording to the CIA world factbook Vietnam has close to 6 million Internet users whereas Romania 4.5 million, hence, it makes sense to target a larger population.\n\nAlso I'm sure that there are a lot more English speaking Romanians then Vietnamese.
