There is nothing like combing through other people’s discarded digital hardware to gather the five journalistic brushes to paint their portrait.
I have been busily scanning through the stash of data I had retrieved from supposedly irretrievable and unreadable drives my friend had discarded, from her legal files to her personal journal in which she wrote that "life could be scary and very tough without someone setting out to eat us ... "—I think she meant that figuratively as in having your life drained out of you; and how the experience of being married to a "hissing snake" of a psychopath and being subjected to all the flattery, veiled threats, guilt, and demeaning acts of abuses designed to tear down her self-esteem still haunt her in her sleep.
While copywriting and copyediting other people’s work, my friend has been quietly happy taking classes in screenwriting and transforming her thoughts into action as she shapes her book ideas. Not only that, but she is helping her son to develop his own pocket-sized book full of jokes.
He has some really specific, compelling and distinct ideas that she is refining and polishing. The accompanying illustrative pencil and ink figures are hilarious, too—I laughed like crazy before shedding a few tears! This is good healing for those childhood traumas we all went through to some extent at the hands of those whom we relied on to protect us.
I can imagine a TV series based on it … heheheh.
I am not going to give away the subject matter, but here’s to wishing much successes to both their projects. I am looking forward to getting a copy or several copies to pass out to my other Asian friends; it is going to be phenomenal seeing their gut-wrenching reactions … yup, there is that sadistic streak in me; deal with it.
Stay tune, and until next post,
We dream / We believe / And we will succeed
About this blog
Excepting this introduction and the posting that are published after March 2015, 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.
This series of posts documents 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 had 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 from the then United States Immigration and Naturalization Service;
as President of said business, he had knowingly helped both mainland Chinese and Taiwanese students to evade military drafts in their countries by facilitating their applications to study in the US and abroad;
as President of said business, he had knowingly helped both mainland Chinese and Taiwanese students looking to enter the United States with the intention of gaining permanent US resident status under the pretense of studying;
as President of said business, he had purposely evaded paying taxes on the commissions received from it and failed to report the earned income to the IRS by having the payments wired back to Taiwan to his mother Chang Hsueh;
he had applied for reinstatement of his F-1 or student status and a change of status, while knowingly withheld the preceding facts on his own application for permanent resident and citizenship in the United States.
And those are just the tip of the iceberg.
Ya-Chang Robert Lin had been employed at AAFES or The Exchange headquarter in Dallas, Texas as an information technology auditor, where he managed to steal—by downloading to CDs that he kept in his personal possession while abiding for time and opportunities to "do business" in Taiwan and/or China—thousands of his colleagues’ Social Security numbers and personnel files while working on one of its HR projects. The HR data on one of these projects became the basis for an academic paper, speaking proposal for ISACA, and a consulting business he was "collaborating with " [more like conning other people into developing for him].
Ya-Chang Robert Lin is a reprobate with a seared conscience. Lacking normal capacity for empathy, remorse, and reciprocation of good will, he is addicted to lying, cheating, and stealing for the pure pleasures derived from being able to get away with it. Because he is such a good liar—so charming and well versed in manipulation techniques and acting skills—it is hard to distinguish him from reprobates.
Ya-Chang Robert Lin was able to dupe some of the smart people in federal government, higher education, and information technology auditing and security. Among his legacy: A son who refused any connection with him and wished that he were dead.

Now, I am intrigued ... "life could be scary and very tough without someone setting out to eat us ... "
