QPQ: Done.

Overall: Article passed GA review on July 22 and nominated one day later. Length is adequate. Article meets sourcing requirements. Article is neutral in tone. No plagiarism issues detected, any areas highlighted by the Earwig tool were direct quotes or proper nouns. All images used in the article are properly licensed. QPQ requirement is complete. Hook is interesting, but my only concern is with the wording. The word "first" could be misinterpreted in such that she came to the USA more than once, or because her first stop was actually Malaysia as Vietnamese boat people. The hook also sounds like she took a boat all the way from Vietnam to the USA, which I don't think is intended. Any objections to removing the word "first" or submitting a different hook?

Flibirigit: No objections - I've dropped "first." Neutrality^talk 02:20, 6 August 2020 (UTC)

ALT0 approved. Hook is interesting, properly cited inline and verified with the sources. Nomination adheres to all other DYK criteria. Flibirigit (talk) 02:34, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
