I see Asians working Mary Lee donuts. I don't know if they're Cambodian, VC or something else.

First generation Asians in the Jxn, MS area.

As far as funding, what i've heard is they are on a pay it forward type system. An immigrant who has done well fronts another immigrant (and is repaid), then that immigrant fronts another immigrant and so on.

That's quite insulting to the people who had to flee their home country because of the VC.

I believe Vietnamese in Welsh. The donuts are okay, but their sausage, egg, and cheese biscuits are delicious.

Mary Lee Drusilla is owned by Koreans. They are super nice and hard working in their business.

This one is on Coursey and same. It seems like the mom runs the place and all of the kids work there. They are all HS age or slightly older. Super nice people and polite kids.
