Father Peter Nguyen Van Hung (chữ Hán: 阮文雄; 1958 - ) is a Vietnamese Australian Roman Catholic priest and human rights activist in Taiwan.〔Helen Schwenken Domestic Workers Count: Global Data on an Often Invisible Sector 2011 "..Fr. Peter Nguyen (Hsinchu Diocese, Taiwan), ..."〕 He was recognised by the United States Department of State as a "hero acting to end modern day slavery". ==Early life== Peter Nguyen Van Hung grew up in a lower-middle-class family outside of Bình Tuy Province, with two brothers and five sisters; his father was a fisherman, but died after a long battle with illness, forcing his mother, a devout Catholic with roots in the country's north, to become the family's main breadwinner. Peter Nguyen Van Hung himself absorbed his mother's faith and devotion.He was an admirer of Saint Francis of Assisi, and reportedly stole food from his own family to feed to the poor. He left Vietnam in 1979 on an overcrowded boat; rescued by a Norwegian ship after just 36 hours and taken to Japan, he joined the Missionary Society of St. Columban upon his arrival. He lived in Japan for three years, studying and taking a variety of jobs to support himself, including as a highway repairman, steel factory worker, and gravedigger. He first came to Taiwan in 1988 as a missionary, after which he went to Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, to study at a seminary. He was ordained in 1991〔〔 and returned to Taiwan the following year (in 1992).
