Nguyen Tat Thanh travelled through many continents and oceans and discovered a simple fact: there were only two races of human beings on this planet - the exploiters and the exploited. He also affirmed the truth of proletarian friendship.

Imbued with Vietnam’s traditional humanity, Nguyen Tat Thanh early saw the light of the age – Marxism-Leninism, which he considered as the most stable, authentic, and revolutionary theory.

Spring blossomed inside the heart of the young man who was always concerned with the fate of his nation and people and attached his own life to the future of the country. This heralded the historic dawn of the S-shaped land.

Nguyen Tat Thanh came to an important conclusion that all black, white, red and yellow workers are brothers.

He also discovered that in order to liberate itself from colonialism, Vietnam had to rely on its own strength, first and foremost, and its intellectuals – the elite of the country.

With an unmatched political sensitivity, Nguyen Tat Thanh, now Nguyen Ai Quoc (Nguyen the Patriot), gradually made preparations to found the Vietnamese Communist Party in the spring of 1930.

The spring of 1930 bore fruit for the oppressed and paved the way for a people’s democratic revolution and land reforms that would lead to an equitable and socialist society.

The Communist Party of Vietnam was the quintessence of the nation’s history and culture.

After the birth of the Party came the Nghe-Tinh Soviet revolt led by Communists who sought liberty for farmers in the central provinces of Nghe An and Ha Tinh.

At this milestone, the Party’s path became the Nation’s Path. Despite having only a small number of cadres, the Communist Party of Vietnam won the hearts of the working people, even in those hard times when it faced the savage white terror of the French colonialists.

Nguyen Tat Thanh (now Ho Chi Minh) returned to his motherland in 1941 to keep the revolutionary wheels turning.

The Viet Minh (League for the Independence of Vietnam) was founded to rally the entire population and build on the invincible strength of national unity. It later overthrew both feudalism and colonialism in Vietnam in 1945, opening a new era of independence and socialism for the nation.

Thirty years later came the Great Victory of Spring 1975, which resulted in the collapse of neo-colonialism and led to national reunification.

Ho Chi Minh’s Thought continues to serve as a North Star for the Vietnamese revolution and people to attain new victories and welcome new springs in the future.
