With profound intellect, ideology, ethics, and compassion, he became a national liberation hero and an outstanding cultural figure of the 20th century.
According to the Consul General, during his revolutionary activities in Thailand from July 1928 to November 1929 under the alias Thau Chin, President Ho Chi Minh left a deep impression on the Vietnamese community and local residents.
The seeds of friendship he sowed nearly a century ago have laid the foundation for the excellent cooperative relationship between Vietnam and Thailand today.
Mr. Dinh Hoang Linh stated that remembering and honoring President Ho Chi Minh has become a cultural activity of profound spiritual significance for the Vietnamese community in Thailand, especially in areas associated with his revolutionary journey.
