After Sandra and Louis were married, Louis would write to Mee Foon and send her a few hundred dollars. He did this on his own initiative. Sandra said she never asked him to do this nor ever had a conversation about it.
Louis asked Sapunor (lawyer) for help. They decided that Sapunor would write a letter regarding the death of Mee Foon's husband and advising that he had left her money. The letter stated that she would need to go to Hong Kong to collect the money.
Sapunor placed an official looking stamp on the letter to make it look authentic. Mee took the letter to authorities – they agreed to allow Mee Foon and Glenn to go to Hong Kong
Inadvertently, Doris’ name was omitted from the letter so she (age 11 or 12) had to stay with her paternal grandmother. Her grandmother died and she was allowed to leave China as there was no one to care for her.
Mee Foon and Glenn went to HK. Toy (Louis’ mother) and Tuey (Louis’ sister-in-law, married to Ken) were in HK so Mee went to stay with them for 1.5 years.
Louis was in the process of bringing his mother Toy to the USA. As he filled out the immigration papers for Mee Foon, he came to realize that he would be unable to support his family of five children, his wife plus his mother and his wife’s mother and siblings.
He had to come up with another plan. Toy had a cousin based in Taiwan who worked in the government in a position of some power/influence. Louis wrote to him to ask him about immigration from Taiwan to USA. This “Taiwan Q-gong” (cousin of Mar Sheung Tung of Hong Kong, who we call Q Gong) wrote back to inform Louis he knew of someone who had the power to help Mee Foon mmigrate from Taiwan to the USA.
Mee Foon and Glenn left Hong Kong and went to Taiwan.
