He, his parents and brother immigrated to Canada in 1981, then moved to Oklahoma, USA, in 1983. Thanks to his parents’ hard work and belief in good education, Thai earned himself a scholarship and attended the Air Force Academy. He’s now a KC-135 Stratotanker pilot and colonel in the U.S. Air Force. (Courtesy photo)
