When the Lus got off a plane for the first time in the United States, in Seattle, the eldest sister, Nanci, then just a girl, remembers charity workers giving the entire family warm winter coats to ward off the unfamiliar chill of the Pacific Northwest. "I was only 7, but that's something I'll never forget." The Lu family had finally left the war behind...

In small parks along the thoroughfare, about 200 drab green tents were pitched together against the early winter chill. The dwellings sheltered only a fraction of those left homeless by the quake, a total of 50,000 by government estimates, or as many as 150,000 by unofficial counts. There are no sanitary facilities in the encampment; periodically, municipal trucks distribute small plastic bags of potable water. Along with a few donated blankets, that...
