In recent years, he has used the true story of Chinese-Australian bushranger Sam Poo
as a "vessel to reveal the truth of history but also the reality of
what being Chinese Australian, or Asian Australian, or an immigrant, is."

Phuong Ngo says: "To put it in simple terms, it's that
question that every single person who isn't part of the mainstream
Australian community gets asked: 'Where are you from?'
"What it
really means is, you don't look like you belong here. And if you are
constantly asked where you are from, and the answers that you give
aren't satisfactory, then you have to question 'Do I really belong here?
Am I encroaching on someone else's space?'
"And you then start
interrogating who you are and where you have come from — literally,
metaphorically, personally, emotionally."
