Bearing witness

Unlike most people I have met, Phandeluys probably lacks the psychological tension that usually drives people to talk about their feelings. That does not mean, however, that she lacks the ability to listen most sympathetically to other people’s problems or the insight into her own feelings and the psychological equilibrium that enables her to offer effective help to others … on the contrary, she is able to think with great emotional sensitivity yet still remains logical in her thought processes. I think that quality is what allows her to communicate with female students with ease and favorability. A listening encounter with my friend is always quite informative in a positive way … and rare as she seems to inhabit this place where she is turned inward yet facing outward at the same time; a place sealed by the potent and lively silence of books.

Tonight, Phandeluys and her partner seemed “blue” for being “tied down” and having too little time to feed their desire to escape and explore via dancesport … the students are having trouble executing and mastering the combined American Tango and International Samba choreography my friend and her partner put together … some of us encounter difficulty “getting” the music; others need to find better balance, and yet others are building confidence … enough to find inspirations but not quite yet to enjoy new innovative add-ons … all of which forced them to “retill the same-old” and prevented Phandeluys and her partner from experimenting with and birthing the next creative vision. Their frustration—their own and those on the students’ behalf—was palpable, and I now fully comprehend why they will only teach voluntarily and on their terms.

Oh, the secret to my friend and her partner’s daily hip-hop and ballroom practices après work and on the weekends? Her partner’s investment in custom-made dance shoes for both of them, along with at-least-once-a-week shiatsu session to simultaneously relax and strengthen the muscles used in their dancing. I secretly think her advanced yoga practice has something to do with it, too, but direct confirmation is not possible seeing how Phandeluys always ignored those kinds of queries from students and bystanders.

Sunday’s classes will begin later than usual; my friend and her partner are planning on spending some time honing their skills on a racing track … speed is another thing they both seem to love in common. I wonder if a man can love a woman out of habit—and vice versa—and if so, then her partner is creating opportunities aplenty for passion and love to bloom between them … I am tortured by the looming possibility of that.

Stay tune, and until next post,

About this blog 

Excepting this introduction and what are—and will be—posted 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 applications 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 and fronting 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 [AAFES or The Exchange, USCIS, ICE, and DHS], higher education [Fort Hays State University and Navarro College], and information technology auditing and security [ISACA and ACFE]. Among his legacy: A son who refused any connection with him and wished that he were dead.

Gifts that worked

Phandeluys and her partner are daring and always seem to open up new horizon with their dancing, which can prove to be a liberation for them yet a “burden” for us … I wonder if that is what her partner meant when he said she is “enterprising” and that she, likewise, finds his mind “very sexy” …

I am not the only one struggling with the combined American Tango and International Samba choreography that Phandeluys and her partner have been demonstrating and teaching this last week. Yes, some of us requested it, underestimating how difficult the individual techniques are, let alone the integrated set [along with our capacity to learn, imitate and incorporate it into our own creative visions] … my back and leg muscles are aching; even my toes are silently begging to be numbed. Yet I am in love with their unusual choreography and the accompanying musical compilation mixing several pieces of contemporary American pop and South Korean hip-hop tracks … There is a hidden talent behind their musical ken.

If I am to continue participating in their dancesport classes, I have to find out how they withstand all those muscle pains in their backs, hips, knees, ankles, and feet … I do not know what kind of energy sustains them but I feel its vibration every time I near them, and I want it. I also want their combined ability to take a new experience, see its potential and give it a concrete form in their life, whether in writing, dancing, or programming, and to teach what they have learned to others.

Fire-and-ice

We finally completed the Merengue and Bachata choreography Phandeluys and her partner had set us learning … a beautifully energetic and exotically sensual pattern when danced correctly, which was why they had us drill the basics time and again. They are hard taskmasters yet the individual and class results speak for themselves … A confident and deeply loved woman is a beautiful specimen …

Last night, my friend seemed to have been on a time and plane of inner and outer equanimity … there is this “breathing space” around her that neither I nor other students can penetrate … It is as if time—no, not time but Phandeluys herself—stopped and took stock of herself without feeling completely caught up in the usual turmoil and rush of events around us … she seemed more able to understand other people’s needs—and that is saying a lot given how my friend is deeply intuitive and naturally responsive to the people around her—without losing sight of her own desires for fulfillment. I sensed her strong desire to “be out in the world” and having as much contact with others as possible … that yearning for freedom unrestricted by her partner is there on the surface, even though I can feel her sense of obligation, internal as it is.

Nevertheless, my friend seemed to derive quite a bit of satisfaction from doing things well, and I suspect that kind of satisfaction is what always imbues her eyes with that sparkle of happiness and conscious living behind her gently yet consistently serious demeanor.

I am excited about classes tonight: A couple of students requested Tango and Samba but Phandeluys and her partner are uncommitted; they each have said that they do not formulate their class lessons or choreography methodically but through inspiration via their six senses in combination with their expertise, training, and experience in every aspects of their lives while “managing its fire-and-ice contrasts” …

Chang Hsueh's medical insurance?

Remember this post, http://faces-of-fraud.blogspot.com/2013/09/chang-hsueh-taiwanese-lifetime-health.html, whereby habitual liar Ya-Chang Robert Lin claimed that his mother Chang Hsueh had medical insurance to cover any illness and/or accident she might suffer while visiting him in Norman back in late 1990s yet the bill remained unpaid and was submitted for collection? 

Here is doctor Xuecheng Wang’s billing statement that says otherwise: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2qBXrITISLkTzhpMzhfdEVaNHM/view?usp=sharing

This visit was just a few years apart in 2001 from the first one in late 1990s. Notice how this woman now has a social security number ... My conclusion: despite Chinese/Taiwanese psychopath Ya-Chang Robert Lin's claimed that the trip back in late 1990s was his mother’s first visit to the United States to specifically meet her daughter-in-law, it was not so; she was here to claim her slice of the US citizenship pie now that her son was able to dupe a citizen into marrying him … Makes you wonder how long mother and son have been hatching this plan and which of the parties—the psychopath's mother, the whore's son or the doctor—were lying and/or doctoring the paperwork, does it not?

Minako Kon Do calling Robert Lin

Another document for the fluent Chinese readers … dated September 18, 1996—seven months after Chinese/Taiwanese psychopath Ya-Chang Robert Lin “married” Phandeluys—from Minako Kon Do to Robert Lin at his private postal office box in Norman, Oklahoma … the very same mailing address he used for his international students recruiting business while he was in the United States on an academic or F-1 visa, which forbids foreign students from working, or having and running their own businesses. 

And he called himself “law-abiding” while his “shadow”—a label Phandeluys’ son assigned to The Jerk’s attorney; there are other more interesting descriptions, including “the mouthpiece,” “midget” and “shrunken version of Ethan Hawke” that he used in his writing on the forums—addressed his client who has a propensity for fraud as “honorable.”

The other agenda

For those readers who read Chinese fluently … Out of curiosity, I had already have the letter translated. Whether my friend will get a new trial or not, I am releasing all and any evidences that prove habitual liar and Chinese/Taiwanese psychopath’s intentions/agenda of entering into a “marriage” with Phandeluys. This was not love or marriage or family … well, maybe that of a typical Chinese/Taiwanese where partners will voluntarily “divorce” one another to gain governmental benefits …

Thanks to Phandeluys for scanning in all the documents she had discovered trying to clean up the garage in late 2012 when Chinese/Taiwanese psychopath was back in Taiwan visiting his parents and girlfriend/business partner [Annie Chin, to whom he had sent an iPad for her to conduct "business" because she lacked the resources. That was how The Jerk had explained to Phandeluys' son as to who was "Annie" and the missing iPad that was bought with $200 cash and the remaining $600 on AAFES' credit card].
