youoffendmeyouoffendmyfamily.com/chinese-diggers-asian-anzacs/Yuey is a China-born, Australian-raised Asian Australian. He lived most of his life as a model minority before discovering another side to Australian history. That, coupled with reading the book Growing Up Asian in Australia, awakened his inner self and led him to embrace his identity. He spends his time thinking of more effective ways to promote Asian Australian culture as successfully as Asian Americans promote theirs. You can read Yuey’s blog here. I first came across an Asian ANZAC (Australian and New Zealand Army Corps) when I was channel surfing through all five of Australia’s television channels. The ABC was showing live footage of the ANZAC day parade, an annual event where ex-Servicemen march down the road. I was just about to change the channel when I heard the commentator announce “and here is Jack Wong Sue”.
