Anh Do is one of Australia's most inspiring success stories, though his journey has been far from easy.
Anh Do is one of Australia's most inspiring success stories, though his journey has been far from easy. In 1980, at just three years old, he arrived in Australia on a crowded fishing boat with refugees fleeing war-torn Vietnam. After surviving pirate attacks, dehydration and harsh conditions at sea, the passengers spent time in a Malaysian refugee camp before Anh's family eventually settled in Sydney.
Determined to make the most of his opportunities, Anh showed an entrepreneurial spirit from a young age. During school he ran a fish-breeding business, and later opened a retail store that expanded to four locations. Although he was close to finishing a double degree in Business and Law and had job offers from major law firms, Anh chose a different path - stand-up comedy.
