n, with Rösler taking over the post of economics minister from his party cohort, Rainer Brüderle. Rösler had previously held the health portfolio.
It has been a phenomenal rise for Rösler, who has given himself seven more years as party chairman or government minister. Not because his party has instituted an age limit, but because Rösler himself has said on more than one occasion that he intends to leave politics at the age of 45 and do something else. Rösler is currently 38, but he is not even sure on what day he was born. His official birthday - February 24, 1973 - was subsequently determined by the German authorities.
Rösler was born in Vietnam and his biological parents, it is presumed, were killed there during the war. Someone then gave the baby to a Catholic orphanage in Saigon, and at the tender age of nine months he was adopted by a German couple and sent to Germany. "How much Asia is in Philipp Rösler?" was a question put to Rösler by the German paper Bild am Sonntag when he became health minister in November 2009. His answer: "Narrower eyes, a flatter nose, black hair." He said that he had had a totally normal, German upbringing, including the fact that his adoptive parents soon separated.
Rösler grew up with his father, a career soldier in the German army, taking regular meals in the officer's mess. Later, he became a soldier himself, serving as a medical officer in the Bundeswehr. After studying medicine at Hanover Medical School, Rösler worked full-time as an army doctor until 2003. His political career, at this point, consisted of a few volunteer positions in the FDP, but his rise was meteoric. He joined the party in 1992. Eight years later, he was already secretary-general of the FDP in the state of Lower Saxony.
Rösler proved to be a talented public speaker and communicator, and not a ruthless, elbow-jabbing careerist. He was attracted to medicine initially because he wanted a job dealing with people, but he said that in practice there was too much paperwork and too little time to treat patients. "I said to myself: now you can go straight into politics and get rid of those silly laws," Rösler said in an interview. "If I ever got the impression that politics was hurting my family, I would quit immediately," he said. Philipp Rösler now has seven years, until he is 45, to shovel a few more coals into the fire.
Vietnam says ‘extremists’ detained after Hmong gathering; area still off limits to media
AP 12 May 2011
Vietnam’s government said Thursday it detained “extremists” after rare unrest involving thousands of ethnic Hmong belonging to a religious group that assembled to await the arrival of their God. Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Nguyen Phuong Nga’s statement Thursday is Vietnam’s first acknowledgment of arrests in the incident. Nga did not say how many were detained or whether there were deaths or injuries as has been alleged by overseas Hmong groups. Officials in northwest Dien Bien province have accused overseas groups of using the incident to influence some Hmong to call for an independent state.
Vietnam has not granted foreign journalists or diplomats access to the area since security forces broke up the gathering in Muong Nhe district in early May. Nga said the Hmong have all returned home. U.S.-based Human Rights Watch has called for a full investigation and for journalists and diplomats to be allowed access. Up to 5,000 Hmong had gathered in the district town to await for God, expected to take them to the promised land on May 21. There is a long history of mistrust between the government and many ethnic hilltribe groups, collectively known as Montagnards. Many anti-communist hilltribe fighters were allied with the United States during
