Tears of My Motherland

August 1945. The Japanese onslaught on Vietnam and Philippines came to an end. Netaji Subhash Bose's sudden death was a big blow for the Indian diaspora in South East Asia, who were backing him for their motherland's freedom. Many of them remained in South East Asian countries instead of moving back to India. Two of these countries were Vietnam and the Philippines.

The book is a tearful story about the Indian migrants who are still risking everything in their pursuit for a better life. Crossing boundaries and breaking barriers with every generation, their fates are tied to their adopted country's economic and political merry go around. After 75 years, they still ask, where do we belong? You may find an answer in this book.
