RFA Cantonese journalist Carmen Wu (3:23) tells Eyes on Asia about deepening censorship and about the trend of people trying to leave Hong Kong or get their kids out to avoid political indoctrination. Then RFA Vietnamese journalist Son Nguyen (14:50) discusses growing public frustration in Vietnam about over-zealous enforcement of anti-COVID measures and failures in the vaccination campaign. With RFA journalists Mat Pennington and Paul Eckert.
