Our organization is small Publishing House located in Chiang Mai, Thailand with 20 years of experience in producing various kinds of books in the Thai Language. We are now, at the beginning of this new century, have embarked on a new international literary route by publishing a first English Language version of our "Hmong" Historical Novel named “Chao Fa”. ‘Chao Fa’ is a novel that was first written in 1982 in the Thai Language and, in the following year was awarded ‘book of the year award’ by the Royal Thai Ministry of Education. It has been re-printed 15 times to date. Many of you who spent some time in Thailand, during the late 70's, before coming to the United States may have heard of and/or even have read this book. We remember that there were some orders for this book from Ban Winai, Loei. ‘Chao Fa’ was recognized internationally in 1983 when a Japanese firm, named ‘Mekong Publishing House’ translated into the Japanese language. The title of ‘Chao Fa’ in the Japanese language is ‘The death on the Mekong River’. The Japanese version of ‘Chao Fa’ is still in print after the third successful printing. This novel could be called ‘Non-Fiction’ or a ‘Documentary Novel’. It is about the ‘Hmong’ (minority tribrspeople) in the Kingdom of Laos who had to fight to survive during the Vietnam War era. In relating its story about the hard and difficult war the Hmong fourth in order to retain freedom, and their long plight to help stop the Communists’ aggression in Southeast Asia, this novel reveals the so-called ‘American’s Secret War’ in detail. Other than the Thai, the Japanese, and the English languages available to day, an ethnic Hmong from Thailand who is pursuing his doctorate degree at the University of Washington is also planning to translate ‘Chao Fa’ into the Hmong language. This Hmong student wants the Hmong in the United States and everywhere in the world to read it because, as he said, “It’s a book of a life time for the Hmong”. We feel that, this book is the book that will represent Hmong people in the international community and will inform their friends and the world of how they have come to be refugees, have to disperse in all directions and have become permanent residents in so many countries, from Australia, Canada, France, Japan to the United States of America. Other than the Hmong that should be interested in ‘Chao Fa’, we think that the US servicemen who used to be stationed in Southeast Asia and/or American civilian who had served in the Southeast Asia might also be interested as well. Most of them know very little about the fighting in Laos since there was no U.S. military personnel assigned to the ground operation in that country. This is a good opportunity to learn what else was going on when the war was going on in Vietnam. The Thai and Japanese readers so far have accepted this novel as the best novel written about the Hmong’s war in Laos. We do think that you might want to read it too. Following are reviews of this novel by The Thai and Japanese: Introducing Chao Fa and Piriya Panasuwan “…..On the serious side, There is a book called "Chao Fa", serious is probably not a right word to use to effectively describe this highly moving documentary novel by a newly born writer in the novelist arena by the pen-name of ‘Piriya Panasuwan’. It is the story of the fight and survival of people without their own land, the Lao tribespeople called the "Hmong", who are refugees in the North and Northeast camps in Thailand. As the author says, the incidents are based on facts because this is a documentary novel. And we all of course remember the many tragic incidents which happened in Laos such as the air raids by the American air force at Thung Hai Hin (Plane de Jars) and their effect on the Hmong. They can hardly be considered fiction, one would think. Chao Fa is also a story of one particular Hmong man, Neng Lee Tu, and the sacrifices he has to make for his people.
