Graves disturbed for Trump golf course in Vietnam
In Vietnam’s Hung Yen province, a $1.5 billion luxury development linked to the Trump Organisation is forcing thousands of households to exhume ancestral remains, igniting a conflict between heritage and international business interests. Residents are resisting the displacement of generations-old graves, deeming the compensation inadequate and the spiritual violation profound. The project’s accelerated approval, bypassing environmental reviews, suggests a move by Vietnamese authorities to foster diplomatic ties and investment with the United States, while the Trump Organization maintains the President’s lack of involvement in family business operations.
