The PM and the delegation also paid respect to President Ton Duc Thang, an exemplary communist and close comrade of President Ho Chi Minh, and a leader of the Vietnamese working class.
On June 5, 1911, from Nha Rong Wharf of Sai Gon, now Ho Chi Minh City, Ho Chi Minh, known in those days as Nguyen Tat Thanh, boarded the ship Admiral Latouche Treville, beginning his journey to seek ways for national salvation.
Thirty years later, he returned to Vietnam to lead the Vietnamese revolution which successfully conducted the August Revolution in 1945 and founded the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, now the Socialist Republic of Vietnam.
