The ECVII was paid 100,000 Dongs and allowed to join the exodus group. The main group of 34 led by the boatmaster arrived at HA NOI after a 3-day bus trip. Without rest, they proceeded to HA NINH via HÒN GAI and ƯA COI, Having paid 900,000 Dongs to a Vietnamese man, they were conveyed by a small boat to DONG XING (132) of China successfully without going through any check points on both sides. They reunited with Group II and III there but stayed in their own friends' and relatives' homes for one and a half month because they could not find a suitable boat.
