Summary Fifteen year old Vinh Voeurn from Cambodia has accepted his destiny to be sick for the rest of life with incurable arsenic poisoning, but his illness does not stop him from fantasizing about becoming a karaoke star and winning the affections of adoring fans. Vinh is one of over 2 million people in Southeast Asia who were sickened by well water containing arsenic. Those wells had been dug by well-meaning aid organizations to provide clean water to rural populations, but the wells tapped directly into arsenic deposits
