Introduction and disclaimer


Excepting this introduction, this blog mirrored a now out-of-commission blog, http://ya-chang-lin.blogspot.com, which was taken down on October 21, 2013 by its author Phandeluys Truong.

The author's original contents and supporting documents were captured by multiple means from the above-mentioned blog while it was alive and active. There may have been a glitch here and there that prevented me from downloading the complete blog as it had existed. Thus, readers familiar with the original blog may find a few missing posts and/or comments. Those postings that I was able to grab and preserve in their entirety are reposted here under my name, however, all rights remain that of the original author.
Phandeluys Truong is not a member of my circle nor a participant in the reposting of these documentations. That said, do not email me about the contents of this blog and/or the author. I will not reply to you and will delete your email. 

This series of posts document the fraudulent, sometimes criminal, and frequent unethical/immoral activities of Ya-Chang Robert Lin, a Taiwanese native of mainland Chinese parentage, who defrauded a naturalized US citizen, Phandeluys Truong, into a marriage that has been his shield against USCIS for his intentional violations of immigration law: As a nonimmigrant F-1 student, he had willfully operated an international students recruiting business without prior work authorization; he had purposely evaded paying taxes on the commissions received and failed to report the earned income to the IRS by having the  payments wired back to Taiwan to his mother Chang Hsueh; and he had applied for reinstatement of his status and a change of status, while knowingly withheld the preceding facts. Ya-Chang Robert Lin has been employed at AAFES or The Exchange headquarter in Dallas, Texas as an information technology auditor.

If English is not your primary language, you can see and read these reposts in Russian, Vietnamese, French and Spanish. Korean and Simplified Chinese versions are coming soon.

Posts update

I've updated the English Language Institute post [http://ya-chang-lin.blogspot.com/2013/08/elc.html] with a letter from Mr. James Stewart that claimed my voidable spouse was then in possession of "unauthorized fund" belonging to Twashakarris Incorporated. 

Likewise, The real reason behind the death of the international students recruiting business [http://ya-chang-lin.blogspot.com/2013/10/the-real-reason-behind-death-of.html] post was updated with a letter I had written to an agent at another agency called Direct Line Counseling Company, apologizing for the late commission payment, why I cannot answer her questions about the account, and that any and all accounting and financial matters must be directed to my voidable spouse [I was really naive and too trusting].

My voidable spouse's favorite movie

He loved it so much that he'd even made a copy ...
























Enjoy this beautiful, sunny day [in Flower Mound and Frisco, at least]

Finished catching up with Shark Tank season five on Huluplus ... I love this series ... there is always something I can learn from each of the sharks about the way they see a business and its valuation. 

My temporary orders hearing is tomorrow ... I've prepared what I can so now I'm going to take my fifteen-year-old out for some relaxation under the warm and lovely sun.

Have a renewing and relaxing day, everyone!

More disks to check

Important data?  Probably.  Dare I contaminate my own system and hardware to probe?  We shall see.  It bothers me to leave things unturned and hidden in the shadows.  Especially when they lie in and involve the more sacred domain of marriage and other close intimate relationships.

Paying bills, the lowlife Chinese-Taiwanese Ya-Chang Robert Lin style

These are from the summer of 1997 when I was asked to take care of the bills while my voidable spouse left Norman, Oklahoma to visit his parents back in Taiwan ... I found them among the junks scattered out in the garage in January 2013.  

I had prepared them for postal mailing; all my voidable spouse had to do was to write the checks, enclose them in the envelopes, seal the envelopes, and drop the envelopes in the mailbox for pickup by the postal worker. 

But that did not happen.  Why?  Because the way my voidable spouse  pays his bills—back then and even now—is by a) making the minimum payments on his charge cards, if he thinks he will need to use them again in the near future; b) ignoring utility and other similar bills until they threaten to cut services off; or c) waiting until the collections agencies offer to settle his debts by halves.

And this is what he would consider financial smarts and planning—none of which I have, so he claimed and told everyone, including my family.  [I think lacking his kind of financial smarts is a good thing, don't you?]

Grounds for annulment in Texas

Texas laws about annulment is available at http://www.statutes.legis.state.tx.us/Docs/FA/htm/FA.6.htm#6.107 . Mine is listed under Family Code, Subchapter B. Grounds for Annulment, Sec. 6.107. Fraud, Duress, or Force.

As I had mentioned on prior occasions, I believe my marriage was nothing more than an act of benefit fraud for my voidable spouse to gain an immigration benefit through his willful misrepresentation of material fact on his application for permanent residency in the United States.

For those interested, you can visit http://www.statutes.legis.state.tx.us/ to search for a specific code, article or chapter, and sections.  Super convenient ...

The real reason behind the death of the international students recruiting business






































My voidable spouse almost had me convinced that I was to blamed for the demise of the international students recruiting business he and his then-girlfriend had run.  Deep inside I knew I did not do anything wrong but I lacked documented proofs against his insistent verbal blames.  Until now.  

And Ching Shan Counseling Co. was not the only one cheated out of their commissions.

nginx

Just finished installing and configuring nginx, a free open source web server written by Igor Sysoev, a Russian software engineer. Love it yet I am still keeping Apache on my old desktop, along with VirtualBox, the more better to experiment, compare, learn and share with my peers.

I love the flexibility to set up and run anything web-related at all; the freedom to tinker with operating systems and the web server side of the system is a fantastic learning opportunity. Plus, it is a lesson I can share with my fifteen-year-old son ... There is almost no feeling comparable to seeing him learning and growing more confident in himself and his ability, his knowledge and his values.

Got to go and prepare for the day; been awake for the last 42 hours with this latest love ...

Brief upate for October

Sorry folks for the lack of updates during the last few weeks ... have written many posts with supporting evidences for ready publication, which I will do after my court date on 21 October and other hearings that have been lined up.  For now, I will keep them and other plans to myself in preparation for the upcoming battles.

Also, many thanks to those who of you who welcomed me in to your meetup groups and provided the perfect food for my soul ... I know we can achieve something great together, with some planning and not enough time ;)

Big data project

Have been working on a big data file chopper based on how-to articles available at www.online-tech-tips.com, www.4guysfromrolla.com, and www.freevbcode.com ... another hour at most until I can test it against the files in my repository.  

Unfortunately [or perhaps very fortunately as I have been pecking at this project since 8:00 this morning, with ongoing interruptions and distractions] I have a social engagement to attend with a friend ... it will be my first public event since filing the annulment.  Part of me is excited yet another part is apprehensive at what might happen ... 

I will check in later tonight or tomorrow morning ... have yourself a rejuvenating Saturday night.

Sorry that I did not check back in until now ... have been basking in the afterglow of Saturday night ... 

Now back to the shackles of my daily life and the EDI Translator that is based in part on a code snippet of Microsoft ... Of course, I finished the big data file chopper although it took more than an hour that was originally allocated to it; the program is running well enough but am sure there will be hiccups along the way as I incorporate the EDI file that was generated using real industry data.   

Finally and in the longest time, not only this but other projects are being completed, which is akin to having one-hundred percent positivity as I have an immense aversion to half-finished work.  If nothing else, these projects serve as avenues towards greater understanding in coding; however, I am hoping that with a scary smart partner, a business enterprise might be in the offing ...

May-December partnership

For those readers who have ever been in a May-December partnership, please email me and share your insights as to how it works when there is sufficient intellectual rapport, or if it did not work ... why not.  

Thank you in advance for the opportunities to learn from you.

The echoes of lying and lies

I made the worst possible mistake with my fifteen-year-old today.

For this week's assignment in his leadership class, my son has to research and present his family ancestry.  My error in judgement lie in not anticipating his emotionality on the subject, leading me to naively asking "why" when he informed me that he is choosing to focus on only my side of the family.

That one-word question really brought forth an hour-long monologue on how if he cannot trust his father to reveal the truthfulness of his personal character and family background, then what veracity is there to any and all words and statements that might slide off of said person's tongue?  He said he didn't want to be lied to nor to spend time trying to unravel the truth from among whatever lies he is sure will be told ... 

I was quiet but receptive and empathic throughout the episode ... what is there for me to say when the evidences support his conclusions and characterization of the person in question?  More lies and further blinders will not pave the way for a more honest and respectful interaction / relationship between him and my voidable spouse. 

Only now am I realizing my son was not kidding when he told me that he identifies himself as a Vietnamese-American, and would feel deep embarrassment to be thought of as a Taiwanese and / or Chinese ... and that he was serious when he asked to change his last name to that of my mother's.  

I feel sad ... for him and about the whole situation.

What is the one thing I do that would make you feel ashamed of me?

This was one among five questions on an assignment my son had to complete for his communications class ... Talk about heady psychological stuff ... and on a three-day weekend, too.  Oh well, adventure traveling with a friend can wait for yet another more opportune time. 

A labor of love our discussion was; and no, we never did quite answer that specific question as it is formulated ... I see shame as something we do to ourselves and not anything others could have done to bring shame on us.  With regards to my son, about the only situation that will have brought me deeply felt shamefulness is to have nurtured and raised an interpersonally manipulative and exploitive narcissist or a remorseless egocentric who want, want and want, and see people as objects to be manipulated or pieces to be controlled, used, and discarded.  


Thank goodness I awake every morning seeing and knowing that my son is growing further away from becoming those types of people—my definition of the original "evil" people.  There had been too many teeth-grinding and bullets-sweating nights when I felt trapped in a never-ending nightmare just thinking how my child may ended up becoming and living his life deceiving others ...

맛있는

After trying the Vietnamese grilled beef wrapped in rice paper with fresh vegetables and aromatic herbs, dipped in Vietnamese sweet-and-sour sauce two weekends before, my fifteen-year-old requested a Korean-style version.

So this past Sunday [Saturdays are my days-off to do as I wish, alone or with friends as my fifteen-year-old turns his attention to creating media content and updating his video channel with his network of online buddies], an ordinary meal was turned into a festive occasion as we experimented with wrapping in butter lettuce caramelizing grilled beef that was topped with a pinch or two of kimchi ... this meal was addictively flavorful with its sugar, sake, garlic, onion, soy sauce, sesame seeds, sesame oil, black pepper and cayenne.  Surprising for us as we have tried but never quite liked the Korean national dish bul-goki. 

소주 or Korean vodka would have been a nice accompaniment ... but not when my son is present; instead, we settled for sweetened ginger and cinnamon tea on ice ... and a movie marathon night to catch up on a few of the latest releases.

On neighborsgo.com ...

Stumbled upon this article about my blog while posting launching events for our company ...
































Chang Hsueh's Taiwanese lifetime health and medical insurance

Let us see how my voidable spouse talks his way out of this ...





































































As if they had never seen the bills themselves ... such black-hearted liars and cheaters yet they played the civilized roles so well that no one would ever suspect otherwise.




































Shame on me for wanting to speak with a friend I had not seen in such a long time instead of "helping" [by standing around and clapping and shouting verbal encouragements] while my voidable spouse tried teaching his mother how to ride a bicycle on a school parking lot ... Who in their right mind would risk such an activity on an elderly woman who could barely walk and balance herself?

I would love to see that medical bill that he claimed to have co-signed, knowing that she had full health and medical coverage from Taiwan.






































Family planning, the Chang-Lin style









































































"Ineligible services" as in neither I nor the child I was carrying were covered by the "family" insurance my voidable spouse claimed to have had ... 

What he had instead was a single-member health insurance coverage ... 
























I wonder how many providers were conned and cheated out of their fair share of payments for services that had been rendered, including Dr. Lesa Mulligan for my ob / gyn exams ...

A gift, a loan, or fraudulent asset transfers?

It is difficult to tell, given the kind of nebulous or deceptive communication my voidable spouse has been engaging in since I met him ...

I suspect I am not the only one to have been given the run-around; below is the good faith estimate of the house in Flower Mound for the in-laws' scrutiny ... they may just find that what they have been told [and sold] and the numbers do not add up.

Hangul

Am loving Hangul and how it is so easy to learn to read and write the language; of course, anybody can learn another language, but learning the emotional connotations and denotations of the words, as well as learning how words are used in a particular culture, is a more difficult and demanding process—one I am totally looking forward to.

English Language Center | Edmond, OK | 1994

Having trouble sleeping tonight even though an extremely harried day [and week] is looming ahead.

Earlier this afternoon, while sorting through documents and files relating to the international students recruiting business, it dawned on me how deep the deception had been:  The setup originated all the way back to 1993 when my voidable spouse and his girlfriend Ming-Jung Li—while on F-1 student visa—were employed as paid representatives of the English Language Center or ELC in Edmond, Oklahoma.  Unfortunately, an incident occurred wherein my voidable spouse was accused by the Center's owner and director Mr. James Stewart [in the photos below] of a criminal charge—$8,260.49, to be exact—that landed him some time in jail ... And even though the arrest record may have been expunged for employment purposes, neither Department of Homeland Security nor the immigration court are inclined to issue a waiver. 

Knowing what I know now about various aspects of immigration law ... I have to revisit that place and time frame and sort through all the paper trail if I hope to untangle another reason why things are as they have been during the last 16 years ...

Here is one question that has been haunting me since discovering these facts as seen against the backdrop of immigration law:  If you were a non-immigrant F-1 student with the goal of acquiring permanent residency in the U.S. and came to realize that you were ineligible for reinstatement, extension of stay, or change of status because you have violated your status, have been employed off campus without authorization—during which time period you were arrested and charged with a criminal act—what other recourse might be available to you in getting a green card?  I feel so angry, almost as if I am crying tears of blood ...

This post will be updated as I try to unravel and understand the situation.

What began as a divorce

This journey really began with divorce ... Unfortunately I stumbled into a nest of deceptions and fraudulence during the cleanup process.  

[This long letter to a friend was snipped and screen-captured for readability; content was not cropped.]
