Why do Vietnamese Americans support Trump and GOP while Vietnamese Australians vote for the center-left Labor Party despite both communities starting from the Fall of Saigon wave?
Trust is earned, not demanded.
Here are stats Vietnamese Americans
Westminster, California - 45.5% Vietnamese Americans in 2020 Census and voted 53.2% Trump to 44.3% Harris in 2024 US Election.
Vietnamese Australians
Cabramatta, New South Wales, Australia - 47.5% has a father born in Vietnam and 49,6% has a mother born in Vietnam in 2021 Census and within the Traditional Two Party Preferred * in one of its voting booths voted 84% for the center-left Labor Party to 16% for the Center-right Liberal Party in the 2025 Federal Election
* But please note the reason I said traditional is due to the difference of Australia Voting System, its current political environment in that House of Representatives has an Independent politician being voted in and knocking out the liberal party to compete with the Labor Party for the TPP (in fact politician is Vietnamese) but even given it is historically a stronghold for the Labor Party, it would had all but certain had been reverted back to Labor if it was back to the traditional two party race.
If both communities started off being refugees from Vietnamese Boat People due to the Fall of Saigon, why do they vote very differently with America voting for the Right while Australia voting for the Left?
