Chuong to Explain Stand On Viet Nam In KU Talk
"President Ngo Dinh Diem has the mind of a medieval inquisitor."
"President Ngo Dinh Diem has the mind of a medieval inquisitor." This statement was made by Tran Van Chuong, father of the Vietnamese "first lady," Madame Nuh. He will speak here at 8 p.m. Nov. 11 in the University Theatre at Murphy Hall.
CHUONG is now on a coast-to-coast speaking tour explaining his opposition to the Diem regime. He has refused to see his controversial daughter while she is in the U.S.
Chuong resigned the Vietnamese ambassadorship to the U.S., a post he held for over eight years, last August because of Diem pollies towards Buddhists. He is a Buddhist, while his daughter, son-in-law, and President Diem are Roman Catholic.
"This difficult war will be won only by the reconciliation and sincere union in liberty of all anti-Communist Vietnamese forces and by the utilization of all available talents and not by copying totalitarian regimes," Chuong said when he resigned his ambassadorship.
EDUCATED AT the University of Paris, Chuong took his doctorate in the faculty of law in 1922. He now lives in Chevy Chase, Md., near Washington, D.C.
In 1940 Chuong was president of the Grand Council for Economic and Financial Interests in Indochina and in 1945 became Minister of Foreign Affairs for Indochina. Chuong served on a French-Viet Nam court until he was appointed Minister of State in 1954 in the new Diem government. He was appointed to the ambassador post a year later.
His wife was Viet Nam's official observer at the United Nations from 1958 until last August when she resigned simultaneously with her husband.
Chuong's appearance here is being sponsored by the All Student Council current events committee and the Student Union Activities featured speakers committee.
