This is Ho Feng-Shan, a Chinese diplomat stationed in Vienna during World War II. He defied strict orders to save thousands of Jewish lives by granting them visas. Often called the "Chinese Schindler," his name deserves recognition. While the exact count is uncertain due to lost records, he issued nearly 2,000 visas during his early diplomatic tenure, with some estimates reaching almost 4,000. Xu Xin, a Jewish studies professor at Nanjing University, suggests that Ho may have saved over 5,000 lives, making him one of the first diplomats to take decisive action to protect Jews. Amid rising violence against Jews fueled by Nazi propaganda, Ho met Lilith-Sylvia Doron by chance in 1938. He shielded her family from harm, relying on his diplomatic status. Gerda Gottfried Kraus recounted how her husband sought refuge at the Chinese consulate after Kristallnacht. Unable to enter, he tossed his application into a diplomat's car, which Ho Feng-Shan received, granting them visas. When Nazis seized the embassy, Ho established a new office at his own expense to continue issuing visas. His efforts persisted until May 1940 when he was ordered to return to China. Ho Feng-Shan passed away in 1997 at age 96. In 2000, Israel honored him with the "Righteous Among the Nations" award for his heroic actions during the Holocaust.
