From a tiny boat fleeing Vietnam to the 1992 Los Angeles riots and then back to Vietnam again, this time in a prison cell, Cong T. Do has cheated death four times in his life. Despite this, his is not a life spent dwelling on death.
After building a life from nothing, creating a business from the ground up, and earning both a BS and MBA, he travels back to Vietnam to fight for American values, at the cost of his liberty. His bravery and 38-day hunger strike results in an invitation to the White House from George W. Bush.
A memoir of both personal accomplishment and the enduring human spirit, The Cost to Freedom examines one man's journey through countries, oceans, morality, and his own values.
Cong T. Do immigrated to the USA in the '80s as one of the 'boat people' with his wife in a daring escape from Vietnam. He earned a BS and MBA degree and worked as a project manager in Silicon Valley, CA. His business was burned during the LA riots in 1992. In 2006, he was imprisoned in Vietnam for fighting to free Vietnam. During his 38 days of jail, he was on a hunger strike. In 2007, President George W. Bush invited him into the White House to share his story and called Cong T. Do a 'democratic terrorist.' He cheated death four times in his life. This book tells it all.
