President Ho Chi Minh was a great leader who had a comprehensive vision and made wholehearted devotion to the Vietnamese people and nation, Douangmixay Likaya, a Lao writer described the Vietnamese leader, who he met in 1959 when the 78-year-old writer and musician was studying in Vietnam.
In a conversation with Vietnam News Agency (VNA)’s correspondents in Vientiane, Douangmixay showed his great love for President Ho Chi Minh, and the passion to write works honouring the Laos-Vietnam relationship to contribute to maintaining the special ties between the two countries.
The Lao writer said that he has strived to study and follow President Ho Chi Minh's ideology, moral example and lifestyle.
Particularly, he has applied the leader's short, understandable and memorable writing style to his works.
Douangmixay wrote several music works about President Ho Chi Minh in Lao, Vietnamese and Mong languages, including a two-movement symphony titled "Red River-Mekong" inspired by President Ho Chi Minh's saying that the friendship between Vietnam and Lao is even deeper than the water of the Hong Ha (Red River) and the Cuu Long (Mekong River).
On the occasion of the 55th anniversary of President Ho Chi Minh's testament and the 79th anniversary of Vietnam's National Day, the musician will coordinate with the Vietnamese Embassy in Laos to hold a concert on the night of August 30, during which 2-3 songs composed and written by him about President Ho will be performed.
He said he has always reminded his relatives and friends that without the leadership of President Ho Chi Minh over the revolution in the three Indochinese countries, they would not enjoy today's independence.
He emphasised that the President was an exemplary role model and a true communist admired by people in Laos, Vietnam and around the world.
