The paranormal past of Master Rao - Part 4

[an error occurred while processing this directive]

By the beginning of 1962, after a reading of my astral chart, I gave up teaching to become a journalist. I started as a member of the Saigon bureau of United Press International (UPI). I made so much rapid progress that, after about two years, I came to be generally regarded as the best Vietnamese journalist. It is why I could become a correspondent for the New York Times and, much later on, for the Washington Post. Peter Grose wrote in the June, 1965, Times Talks Review: "The name of Nguyen Ngoc Rao... is very well known indeed to the Southeast Asian news community... Rao's record of news breaks and facts-in-print is formidable through the two years of crisis in Vietnam..."

During the years 1962-1970, I often covered operations launched by South-Vietnamese and/or American troops against the Communist Vietcong. The units I was with often heeded my suggestions and suffered no significant losses — none of them ever fell into an ambush or walked on a minefield.

Although having no sympathy at all for the rotten Saigon government, I considered it a lesser evil than Communism. It's why, when alerted by a special astrological chart, I wrote to South Vietnam's President Ngo Dinh Diem to warn him of an imminent attempt on his life. A week later, on February 22, 1962, the Presidential Palace was bombarded and greatly damaged by two rebel fighter planes. Diem and all his family were uninjured, and they thanked me discreetly for it.
