The Future of OC Supervisor Andrew Do

By Long Pham, Former OC Board of Education Trustee

It has been over 4 months since the date Orange County supervisor Michelle Steel, a close friend and ally of Supervisor Andrew Do on the OC Board of Supervisors, unexpectedly awarded a certificate honoring the Consulate General of the Vietnamese communist government at a formal ceremony in South Coast Plaza, Costa Mesa on June 4th, 2016.

Despite the heavy protests by several Vietnamese-American groups in the local community, there is still no word of comment from Supervisor Do’s office on this issue. What has prevented Andrew Do from publicly protesting the unfriendly act of a fellow board member who directly insulted his community by honoring an officer of the barbarian government in Vietnam? It should be noted that Do’s office had written numerous letters to President Obama and the State Department on behalf of the Vietnamese community publicly condemning and requesting sanction against the Vietnamese communist government.

The Janet Nguyen recall is over and she is going after Long Pham

Janet Nguyen betrayed Long Pham

Well it looks like the effort to recall Supervisor Janet Nguyen is over before it started. The Orange County Registrar of Voters, Neal Kelley sent a letter to Long Pham, the Republican Vietnamese community activist who started the effort to recall Nguyen, on Oct. 7, which stated that:

On Tuesday, October 7,2014. I received a letter from Janet Nguyen declaring, under penalty of perjury, that she was not served personalty with the Notice of Intent to Recall (as required by California Elections Code section 11021).

Based on the enclosed information and statement I have reason to believe that personal delivery was not effectuated properly and therefore I am suspending the recall process pending proper service.

But Nguyen isn’t done with Pham. Check out her snarky response: Continue reading→

Dr. Long Pham

Dr. Long Pham, a Republican candidate for the 34th State Senate District, has responded to OC Register reporter Martin Wisckol’s blatant attempt at character assassination, which was published today. Wisckol passed on a heap of garbage that many think originated from the campaign of Pham’s Republican opponent, perpetually corrupt OC Supervisor Janet Nguyen.

Here is Pham’s answer to Wisckol:

Long Pham Yes, I am the victim of “character assassination” by the friends of Janet Nguyen because my Republican opponent could not respond to her alleged corruption charges by the Grand Jury and by the CMS; and could not identify any wrong doing against my solid records in both public and private services. The following email was sent to Martin Wisckol of the OC Register at 12:04PM on Sunday 4/20/2014.

Dear Mr. Wisckol,

Thank you for your call and the question you asked regarding Supervisor Janet Nguyen’s personal attack on my doctoral degree. Since our telephone conversation may have left some questions unanswered, I like to share the following: Continue reading→

Martin Wisckol’s attack on Long Pham is a subjective hatchet job

Martin Wisckol

OC Register political reporter Martin Wisckol is at it again. This time he is going after Long Pham, a Republican candidate for the 34th State Senate District. Wisckol wrote this in his latest post, “Pham runs for office nearly every election. The Fountain Valley resident, has won once out of nine tries, a four-year term on the Orange County Department of Education Board in 2008. When he filled out the Register’s voters guide for his failed 2006 bid for state Assembly, he wrote that his Ph.D. came from Madison University.”

Pham runs for office nearly every election? Couldn’t you say that about OC Supervisor Janet Nguyen too? She is also a candidate for the 34th and has been perpetually in office for years, since getting elected to the Garden Grove City Council in 2004. Don’t forget that previous to her election Nguyen worked for two OC Supervisors – marking her time in politics a lengthy span indeed. Continue reading→
