„HEIMATEN“ From the story about Vietnamese contract workers .More than 59,000 Vietnamese workers were employed in East German factories before the fall of the Wall. These so-called contract workers were segregated from the German population. They lost their jobs after reunification and had nowhere to go, as Vietnam was reluctant to take them back.
