Besides the brochures, application forms and give-away trinkets spread on the table in front of her, Claudia Colnar keeps a U.S. map handy. Inevitably, "Wheres Wyoming?" is the first question shell get when recruiting Vietnamese students to her community college. Her response goes beyond geography. Wyoming is home to American Indian tribes, national parks and snow, she says. She tells parents that Sheridan College, her campus, is in a safe, rural environment. Colnars trip last year, her first to Vietnam, yielded no enrollments. This week, shes trying again. "Wed be remiss if we didnt," she says. At the New World Hotel, 700 students and their parents poured into a fancy ballroom to learn about 23 U.S. schools participating in last years Asian recruitment tour organized by the American Association of Community Colleges.

Once thought extinct, both species are now on the critically endangered list, with just 110 cao vit gibbons and about 200 Tonkin snub nosed monkeys left in the world, and it is hoped the new forest reserves will increase their chances of survival. The British wildlife charity Fauna and Flora International (FFI), which works for wildlife protection in developing countries, was instrumental in setting up the new protected areas, which house the gibbons only known population, and the most viable population of the monkey.
