KREH (branded as Radio Saigon Houston) AM is a Vietnamese language radio station with its studios in Chinatown and in the International District in Houston, Texas. As of 2007, it is co-owned by Duong Phuc and Vu Thanh Thuy. It is broadcast on frequency 900 kHz and operates from sunrise to sunset under ownership of Bustos Media. It is one of only two Asian stations serving the Greater Houston area.
When Radio Saigon was established in 1999, it had five employees. In 2007, it had over 80 contributing hosts and 35 employees, including full-time and part-time. That year, Cynthia Leonor Garza of the Houston Chronicle stated that the station was a factor in migration of Vietnamese to Houston from the West Coast.
KREH operations commenced in 1999, licensed to Pecan Grove, as a move in facility originally located in Oakdale, Louisiana.
