Vietnam man looking for long-lost little brother adopted by S'porean family in 1994

A Vietnamese man is enlisting the help of the internet to get in touch with his long-lost brother after his brother was adopted by a Singaporean family in 1994.

Sharing on the Lost and Found Facebook group, Nguyen Van Quyet appealed for information regarding his lost younger brother, Nguyen Van Tien.

Adopted

Nguyen shared that his younger brother was born in 1986 in Kieu Than Village in Thai Binh Province, Vietnam.

Their father was Nguyen Van Tang, and Nguyen had another brother and sister named Van Quang and Thi Nguyet.

Tien is the youngest in the family.

Nguyen wrote that their father died early, so their mother left Tien to live with a "Mr Sau" and an uncle and auntie.

After that, Tien was adopted by a Singaporean family around 1994, when he was about nine years old.

He added that Tien would write letters often and send photos to them. However, they have since lost contact with Tien.

"Our family has kept a handwritten letter from Tien sent back on Nov. 7, 1995, and a few photos taken with his adoptive parents.

Our family hopes that the online community will share and connect so that the family can soon find our younger brother."

Mothership has reached out to Nguyen for more information.
