Killings of Hoa people by the Vietnamese is likely exaggerated

The statement that 'widespread resistance and clashes left the streets of Cholon "full of corpses"' from May 4 is countered by a later article in the "Straights Times" (May 30, Page 12) which reports on an eyewitness account from a 30-Year-old refugee 'woman of Chinese extraction': "She said she had not heard of any Chinese in Ho Chi Minh City who had been beaten or shot, as Peking has charged."

So, the "full of corpses" statement feels like Chinese propaganda.

I would recommend removing the sentence and replacing it with the refugee's eyewitness account along the lines of: Vietnamese officials and soldiers ordered shops to close and confiscated goods and personal effects. Pnelsonmusic (talk) 17:56, 5 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]
