An Asian-American and Asian-Australian connection

Posted on 04:14 by Unknown
Sydney vlogger Natalie Tran (of Community Channel) caught up with Philip Wang of Wong Fu Productions this week for this chat. I have limited appetite for vlogs - something about the format of it just seems to annoy me - but Tran is pretty likeable. It strikes me that with close to a million subscribers on Youtube (number 1 in Australia and the 28th most subscribed person of all time), she is possibly the best-known Asian-Australian in the world. Can't fault that.


Btw, Tran is not the only Vietnamese-Australian notching up major hits on the 'tube. Melbourne's John Luc, aka mychonny, has the 2nd most subscribed channel in Australia (and the 4th most, oddly enough).
