SIAM
He used another alias in Siam, ‘Thau Chin’ (Ông Chín). Undeterred by difficulties and poor living conditions, he did manual work in the paddy fields, watered vegetables, and caught fish with local people to live as a true farmer. This was when Nguyễn Tất Thành’s shining and noble personality along with his simplicity as a great figure of the century became apparent to us.

Na Chok village, situated in the province of Nakhon Phanom, was the place he chose to launch revolutionary movements aimed at saving the people and the nation since many overseas Vietnamese lived there. The primary goal revolved around gathering and organizing revolutionary forces among the Vietnamese living abroad, as well as building trust and promoting a sense of patriotism among Vietnamese people in Siam. Starting in 1928, Uncle Hồ established a school for children of Vietnamese cadres living overseas, where they were trained, cared for, and educated on national consciousness to become dedicated cadres of the nation.
Nguyễn Tất Thành’s memorial house, not far away from Thai - Vietnamese Friendship Village, is now a relic site in a Thai province. On top of that, the mature starfruit tree which had long ripened with full branches, was planted by Uncle Hồ himself in 1928, and it has been nearly 100 years since. Additionally, due to sentiments of love and respect for him, the wish to rebuild Uncle Hồ’s memorial site at Nong On village has concerned the overseas Vietnamese communities for a long time. In 2003, thanks to donations from the people and approval from local authorities, the Memorial Site underwent construction. Aside from the central house, another one was employed for placing Uncle Hồ’s altar, where his portrait formally rested. The portrait captured an image of Uncle Hồ’s glowing eyes and silver beard, causing visitors who came to burn incense in his memory to be moved to tears.
