Today I'm Dao Minh Quan, a U.S. citizen of Vietnamese origin and on a large scale, a universal hummanitorian. As a victim of the Communist regime, I was detained, yet able to escape from the prison camp by navigating a boat (License # VNKG-0602) along with 524 other victims. Sure to sink, we were fortunate that a West-German ship named Proskekte of Esso Production Malaysia Inc. rescued us and took us to the refugee camp in Johore Mershing district - Malaysia, on 17/05/1979.

Even the loving, merciful God cannot ignore or forgive such heinous crimes as detailed below:

Hồ Chí Minh aka Nguyễn Ái Quốc was merely a “puppet” of Communist China, pretending to be a patriotic figure to the Vietnamese people. He established the communist party to seize power over Viet Nam by imposing the communist doctrine to the infrastructure society. He committed mass murder during “Xô Viết Nghệ Tỉnh” rebellion and during the Land Reform period 1949-1956, killing 173,008 innocent peasants. He closed down Nhân Văn Paper (“Humanities”) whose associates had been eradicated by either imprisonment and/or forced to seek asylum in exile. During the “1968 TET offensive” his troops killed thousands of innocent people. In 1975, his Communist Party violated the 1973 Paris "Peace Treaty" Agreement, leading to the invasion of South Vietnam, and put hundreds of thousands of people into re-education camps without trial. Vietnam Communist Party sold off part of our fatherland and the sea to China.

  1.    - Hồ Chí Minh is of Chinese origin. His first crime was to pretend to be a Vietnamese. In the years 1930-1931, Hồ Chí Minh suppressed a revolt against wicked rulers called "Xo Viet Nghe Tinh movement." During this period, this slogan was strictly applied and implemented: "Trí, Phú, Địa, Hào phải diệt tân gốc” (People who are classified as intellectuals, the "filthy rich", the landowners, the merchants must be eradicated (uprooted). Communists advocated that they must destroy these 4 social classes if they want to lead the communist movement over Vietnam successfully.

They would kill (execute) people of these categories indiscriminately during this moment in time, everywhere in the country that seemed needed, without hesitation. How they killed people is another issue. Their goal is to scare off the people with death so that they will sustain the dominant control power over the population.

(See document attached.....).

2. - The next crime was the Land Reform from 1949 – 1956 in Northern Vietnam. With a population of about 16 million people, the Land Reform caused a 173,008 innocent civilians killed, according to the statistics in the book  "The Economic History of Vietnam 1945-2000", issued by the Institute of Communist Economics recently published in the country. (That means for every 100 people, one must be killed) This is horrible for the society in North Vietnam during that time.

 (See document attached ......).

3. - Crimes against civilians/against humanity. The average Vietnamese peasant is very modest, good-natured and they earn their living by hard work. They have also worked extra hard to patiently contribute to the welfare of the Vietnamese communist party all their lives, but suddenly, they were hit with a thunder strike in the head; those who have been working hard on their ancestor's lands as farmers, were labeled as "crooks" plunderers, exploiting other poorer farmers... Even those who are sympathizers, paying sacrifices to the local communist group are also ripped off by the village officials (communist comrades).  Once they are labeled as "capitalist", "spies" or "betrayers", they will have no longer been able to make a living. With the information available today, the communist regimes have committed immense crimes against our own people as well as humanity. These crimes still ocur today.

 (See document attached......).

4. - Our fine cultural traditions that have lasted for thousands of years now have been ruined by the communist regime because of their greed of money and eagerness for power... In summary, the communists have destroyed our traditional ethic life since the Land reform period!

5. - During the Land Reform period, children are encouraged to tell lies about their parents. They even allowed condemning their parents in the public with "creative sins" before a "village tribunal" also called "people's court"... In the history of Vietnam, people’s ethics were never insane like they were during the Land Reform. To set an example: Trường Chinh, former General Secretary of the Communist Party also condemned his father to death. Husband versus wife, brothers versus sisters, they blamed and accused each other. Neighbors must devise a way to slander, hatefully defame each other. The subject of the “People’s Court” was hand tied, knelt and slumped as a sinner, surrounded by a frenzied crowd. The victim was subjected to all kinds of torture. When he or she responds to torturers they must call them by Sir or Madam, even the torturers are at the age of their children. Vice-versa, torturers must call the victims with obscene names.

Eventually the victim will be executed in a variety of ways such as a full body shot or buried alive leaving the head just above the ground level... Then, the victim was killed with a plough blade pulled by a buffalo splitting the victim’s head. Besides the mob, to create terror and repression, the victim’s relatives were forced to witness the slaughtering scene. Grown up relatives became crazy while kids are crying and fainting. It is a horrible cruelty one can't imagine. This period of communist genocide even worsened as time goes by. Hồ Chí Minh is not a Vietnam- born citizen that is why he permitted such a barbaric way to murder.

(See document attached......).

6. - Before the land reform, the village churches, the village temples…have own their land. Places of worship were built or renovated. Monks and service men were taken care of by the contribution of believers.  Spiritual religious activities and charities are villager’s norms.  After the land reform, land is confiscated being levied and divided to peasants. Without land, churches and temples in the village have no chance to exist. Religion shrinks as well as the words “charity” and “humanity”.

During the land reform, many innocent people have died unfairly. Either they were killed at the “People Court” or they committed suicide due to inhuman slanders. Blood everywhere; tears dried up because there are no more tears to shed. Many people wished to become a dog or a cat to have an easier life ... Communist Land reforming is a crime against nature, against the universe, against humanity. It turned people into killing one another, even killing the dearest loved ones like husband, wife, siblings...

(See document attached......)

7. - During 1956-1958, some educated intellectual party members such as Tran Dan, Nguyen huu Dang, Le Dat were incarcerated by the Communist Party to 20 year imprisonment  for the "crime" of organizing  the " Nhân Văn "Humanities" paper"  and  "Giai Phẩm Periodical"publishing an article demanding freedom of speech. In 1959, communist regime confiscated properties and means of production from private sectors to their state-controlled business hidden under the forms of "public joint venture company" in urban cities and "agricultural cooperative exchange" in rural areas.

(See document attached......).

8. - In 1961, the regime started an attack campaign on religions. Religious leaders are terrorized and sent home. Temples and churches properties and facilities are destroyed or used for non-religious purposes.

(See document attached.....).

9. - During the Vietnam War, before Saigon was seized in 1975, communists killed thousands of South Vietnamese government officials in areas with less government security. During the Tet Offensive of 1968, the communists also buried 5,000 civilians and kidnapped and killed 1,000 people in the city of Huế, as Hồ Chí Minh went on national radio and gave an attack order: “This Spring is better than last spring…The final victory belongs to us.”  During the “Flaming Summer” of 1972, Việt Cộng randomly fired rockets onto a boulevard in Quảng Trị province, killing thousands of innocent people while they tried to flee the war zone.  In 1974, communist launghed rockets indiscriminately at on elementary school in Cai Lậy city, killing hundreds of students, mostly under the age of 10. It must be said that all South Vietnam residents most likely will always run towards the South Vietnamese Army troops for protection.

(See document attached......).

10. - After the communists breached the 1973 Paris Peace Treaty Agreement by using their military forces in taking over the South. Vietnamese Army, civilians, members of the military, and government officials were put in prisons disguised as re-education camps. Prisoners were subjected to forced labor, torture, and mental and physical abuse. As a result they suffered from malnutrition, nervous breakdowns and depression. Thousands died. Furthemore, according to research conducted by academics Jacqueline Desbarats and Karl D. Jackson, at least 65,000 people – a conservative estimate – were executed in these communist prison camps from 1975 to 1983. While the spouses suffered in these camps, their wives and children were forced to leave their homes and move to places where they lived in sewer pipes  and under bridges. Meanwhile, sons of these imprisoned men, rather than being able to attend university, were drafted to become communist army soldiers. Daughters turned to prostitution in order to support their families. Furthermore, in Cambodia and along the China-Vietnam border, more than 100,000 children and people with disabilities were killed by the communists.

(See document attached......).

11. - Shortly after seizing the entire country, the communist regime turned Vietnam into a "larger prison" under the name “the Socialist Republic of Vietnam.” The “social reforms” carried out in South Vietnam entailed stealing people’s property, destroying economic development and shattering infrastructure, which caused the country to fall behind and into poverty as it still is today. Bui Tin, a dissident and former colonel in the People’s Army of Vietnam who now lives in Paris, has also condemned the communist regime as inhumane, particularly in its practice of pretending to allow people to cross the sea to confiscate their assets, or to kill them by sinking the boats they were on.

 (See document attached.....).

12. - Fearing the cruelty, intimidation and ruthless lethal violence of the communists, many Vietnamese had to flee their homes, property, and families. Some attempted to escape by land, others by sea. Many of these individuals were later found dead, or were beaten, robbed, arrested and tortured. A woman and the 10-year-old daughter were raped by pirates and subsequently sold into prostitution or thrown into the sea to drown. Those who were lucky made it to refugee camps, although many still had difficulty gaining political asylum. Once the funding for these camps ran out, about 10,000 Vietnamese refugees were forced to return to Vietnam. Having lost everything to communists, many of these returnees went on hunger strikes or carried out self-immolation. 

 (See document attached......).

13. - In mid 1978, the communist Vietnam set out to execute a so called "Re-evaluation campaign" with rhetoric: renovation and re-organization of the economy under their doctrine of communism. They nationalized people’s businesses and industrial companies. They even tried to rip off people's wealth by ordering a nationwide money exchange, that in fact, turned people into poverty and evidently, people had no choice but to flee the communist regime in myriad after all. So many have been lost in the high sea, in the jungles on the way seeking asylum abroad, leaving our native country behind! I would think that you, your Honor, probably have heard all the harrowing aspects of the "boat people". Fortunately enough, The United Nations was awarde of this and convened in Geneva on Nov 14, 1978, looking for a solution to the world problem.

14.- On other hand, according to a denouncing letter written by Mr. Trần H and Mr. Hoàng Quý on April 18, 2004 in Virginia, USA; a set up by the Vietnamese communist regime to execute a mass murder of people by hoarding them into schools, pagodas, indiscriminate killing them in a "blood -bath execution style".

15. - The repression of the Vietnam Communists against the Montagnard (Highlanders) ethnic minorities led to the uprisings in the central Highlands in 2001 and 2004, and recently, in mid April 2008. Following these mass demonstration, hundreds of Montagnards were arrested as reported by the missionary Soai Y: "We have received poisonous gifts from the Vietnamese authorities: The death of hundreds of people due to repression and torture. More than 300 people were still held in detention in prisons in the North since 2001 until now. The Communist regime army and police also forces surrounded and attacked the minor ethnics with faith in Christianity in the Central highland part of Vietnam, killing 200.

 (See document attached.....).

16.- A high treason felony was committed when the communist party yielded (sold under the table) our fatherland and sea by Phạm Văn Đồng, (the then prime minister of Communist Vietnam) to Chinese prime minister Chou Enlai on Sept 14, 1958 . The declaration delineated the extent of Chinese territory and included the Truong Sa. In response, the DRV Prime Minister, Pham Van Dong, sent a formal note to PRC Premier Zhou Enlai stating that "The Government of the Democratic Republic of Viet Nam respects this decision* Also on Decembeer 30, 1999, the Vietnam communist regime secretly and cowardly signed with China the "Treaty on land bordering Vietnam and China.".

* On December 25, 2000, they signed another treaty called " Northern Gulf Demarcation agreement" and the " Agreement on Fishing Co- operation in Northern Gulf" resulting in a loss of 720 square kilometers frontier of Vietnam to China. When a young dissident lawyer, Mr. Lê Chí Quang, wrote an article about this on-going incident, “Beware of the North", they jailed him.

Even when the Vietnamese concerned citizens voiced their opposition to yielding land and sea to communist China, by peaceful demonstration and meetings, the communist (tyrant) regime overwhelmed them with police and armed forces. If they feel anybody could be the" core" to the demonstration, or if they fear for they believe that those people could be a future threat, those people will be eradicated right away by jailing, beating, torture ... against the International Convention of The United Nations that they even agreed and previously signed.

17. - Nowadays, they even engaged in plans to export brides abroad (married to foreigners) and human trafficking, exporting minors to other countries for prostitution. They only care for the bottom line: money and power to dominate the country of Vietnam and disregard the ethical and humane aspect of the people of Vietnam.

In general, since Ho Chi Minh imposing neo-communist non-human, anti peoples of our country in 1930 so far, the party raged know how disastrous for the country and people of Vietnam , which currently decadence consequences both physically and mentally with seven (7) main problem, that Vietnam and its people have to face and resolve. They are:

- Environmental destruction

- Moral corruption

- Corruption from top to bottom

- Discern rich and poor is very far

- Damage to the territory

- Social Injustice

- And loss of national assets.

(See attached document ......).

For the world and the international community of the International Communist crimes have also caused human misery for many, and the crime was also a lot of people sentenced. In the documentary "The Black Book of Communism" by French historian is Mr. Stephane Courtois, research director of the National Center for the Study of French Studies, Mr. Stephane outlined a correct way of crime of the Communists. This is a dark picture of human history, he says, to point out to pay honor to those who died of a communist republic. After listing the famous communist leader cruel world such as Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Ho Chi Minh, Castro, etc., he remarked: "... Above the level of personal crime or slaughtered locally according to local circumstances, the mode. CS consolidation of power by raising the mass slaughter policy to every rule ... “

(See document number ...... attached).

On January 25, 2006, Council of Europe passed and adopted Resolution 1481, unanimously agreeing to a need to condemn and expose these crimes of the communist and totalitarian regimes to the world, albeit, these regimes are no longer in existence, but, these past crimes have not yet been brought to justice while some communist regimes still exist; therefore, Vietnamese communists are still a threat to humanity that must be prosecuted.

Since the philosophy of communism and the communist parties appeared in countries around the world, about 100 years ago, there has been hundreds of millions of individuals and groups of people killed for political reasons by communist atrocity. Vietnam, in particular, our people has been decimated by these brutal, inhuman regimes. Once, our former President Ngô Đình Diệm quite accurately referred to them as a "monster".

By all accurate proof and evidences described and attached here, within this petition, we would respectfully ask, Your Honor, to re-open a full scale investigation to bring justice, to prosecute those under Hồ Chí Minh leadership, who have been involved with these horrible (massacre) atrocities against our people of Vietnam... Hồ Chí Minh was, in fact, an indigene of China, named Hồ Tập Chương, a spy and a serious crime leader, disguising as a Vietnamese under the name of Hồ Chí Minh. This would require an autopsy and DNA test to reveal the whole truth.

Hồ Chí Minh accomplices have been:

 1. - Trường Chinh (deceased)

 2. - Lê Duẩn (deceased)

 3. - Nguyễn Văn Linh (deceased)

 4. - Đỗ Mười

 5. - Lê Đức Anh

 6. - Trần Đức Lương

 7. - Lê Khả Phiêu

 8. - Nông Đức Mạnh

 9. - Nguyễn Phú Trọng

 10. - Trương Tấn Sang

 11. - Nguyễn Tấn Dũng

 12. - Phùng Quang Thanh

 13. - Nguyễn Chí Vịnh

 14. - Trần Đại Quang

 15. - Nguyễn Thái Bình

 16. - Nguyễn Minh Triết

 17. - Phan Văn Khải

18. – Hà Hùng Cường

 19. - Nguyễn Sinh Hùng

These are the aggravated criminals that must be brought to justice and that they must be ordered to pay for the consequences of their crimes and to set an example for humanity across the globe know and to avoid the dangers of godless communism, tyranny, terrorism and genocide against humanity.

The crimes of the communist Vietnam have risen, both in scope and quantity.

We respectfully ask Your Honor and The Court to urgently order these criminals:

1. - To appear in Court to hear allegations against them.

2. - To be fully responsible in paying damages and compensation to those who have been victims of their aggravated crimes such as land confiscation, property nationalization, false imprisonment and loss of family members due to persecution and massacre.

3. - Order them to immediately and unconditionally release from prison all political dissidents.

4. - Order them to pay for all incurring court costs and fees for this law suit.

5. - Judgment goes into effect and executed immediately after the date of the judgment of the court.

It is with my utmost respect for the court that I here by submit this document for your review and in hope that justice will prevail.

With it also comes the love and gratitude of the Provisional National Government of Vietnam and 86 million people in the country and 4 millions of Vietnamese refugees around the world.

Prime Minister to the Provisional National Government of Vietnam
