HONG KONG (AFP): Three decades after he landed on Hong Kong shores as a child refugee, Vo Van Hung is fighting efforts to deport him to Vietnam now that he has finished a lengthy jail sentence -- for murder.

Vietnam's "boat people" exodus subsided years ago. But Vo, 41, is one of just a handful of remaining refugees whose fate remains undecided.
