Yin Ho, 67, a pillar of the Asian district of the 13th arrondissement of Paris, at the head of the restaurant Li Ka Pho, avenue de Choisy. For forty years he and his wife Ping, 66, had hoped to one day obtain French nationality.
The good news arrived at the end of 2023 by post but Yin only really believed it when he went to collect his passport and identity card. During all these years, which passed so quickly, he was refused twice… because he did not speak French.
