Shirt from the Malaysian Red Crescent Society (MRCS), worn by Nguyễn Văn Luyện at Pulau Bidong Refugee Camp in Malaysia. He wore this shirt while living in the camp and later brought it with him when he resettled in the United States. In Malaysia—a predominantly Muslim country—the Red Crescent symbol is used instead of the Red Cross, reflecting local cultural and religious norms.
