| Ho Chi-Minh (1890-1969) |
Kimmo Huosionmaa
Ho Chi-Minh (1890-1969) was the leader of the communistic North-Vietnamese government, and he was famous because of Vietnam War protesters yell "Ho Ho Ho-chi-Minh". That man was born in French Indochina and attended to work for French colonial government. But he couldn't get in academy what was necessary for a man who worked in there. When that man moved to Paris and then to London where he worked as a chef in one hotel kitchen. Name of that hotel was Drayton Court Hotel and there had another job as a baker in another hotel, where that man was working in one famous French chef's assistant.
Those times he changed his mind for a revolutionist, and I always asked why that thing happened? People like Ho were important for revolution, because of their language skills and hotels chef was a good cover role for that man. Chefs change their receipts together, and that's why nobody was interested that Vietnamese chef's letters. And one particular thing was that Ho spoke an wrote Vietnamese. His language was hard to understand those British authorities whose mission was to open letters and search them for anarchistic things.
French authorities had the skill to read Vietnamese, but the British government had not got any translator who could speak Vietnamese, so Ho was very useful mailer to those letters what brought from France to Great Britain. Those letters were brought from France and Ho was translate them to Vietnamese and resend them to somewhere else. Then receiver translated that communication mails to another language. So receiver must also be Vietnamese because translations must be made correct, and other people must understand those texts.
But Ho was a good target for revolutionists enroller. He or probably some of his friends was employed by French colonial government, and he might be had access to under arrest reports what French authorities made in Indochina. Those reports were useful in hands of Viet Minh or Vietnamese revolutionists. And work as chef of the hotel was very good place to black paint Ho's work as a chef. His work might be unrated and that made him a good target for those communists enrollers. And also workplaces as a cleaner were good to show to him what means goodwill between people. Those workplaces are also today unrated, and of course, there was much more racism in that era in Europe. And Ho might get his own part of that.
He probably was mentioned about friends who worked in colonial government, and then they imagined that he might want to ask a reason why he was denied from that academy, what might be a great disappointment to him and his dreams. Think yourself what kind of attitudes had people against a man who was from Indochina.Ho Chi-Minh moved to New York and there he probably met Trotsky or some other Russian revolutionaries. There he changed his mind for communistic ideology and became a leader of North Vietnamese communist party. I think that frequently came disappointment sets were made a very strong influence for that man, who turned himself as a revolutionist.
