Nguyen Tien Hung: The Man Who Revealed the Last Secrets of the South Vietnamese Government At the end of March 1975, when the Central Highlands had fallen and Da Nang was in its death throes, President Nguyen Van Thieu personally handed Minister of Planning Nguyen Tien Hung a top-secret file — 31 letters from US Presidents Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford, containing Containing commitments to "rapid and forceful response" if North Vietnam violated the Paris Agreement. Mr. Nguyen Tien Hung carried that file across the Pacific to Washington, knocking on the doors of every congressional office on Capitol Hill, trying to prove that the United States was betraying its ally. But Washington remained silent. And on April 30, 1975, he heard the news of the fall of Saigon on the radio in a rented room in the US capital. From that day on, he dedicated the next half-century to preserving the truth for history. His three seminal works — "The Palace File" (1986), "When the Allies Fled" (2005), and "President Thieu's Thoughts" (2010) — have become indispensable sources of information for anyone wanting to understand the final days of the Republic of Vietnam. This is the file of an intellectual who quietly became a witness. About a brown leather briefcase containing 31 documents. Secret message. And about the big question that remains unanswered fifty years later: Why was Washington silent? ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 📌 VIDEO CONTENT 00:00 — Opening the file: Washington, morning of April 30, 1975 05:00 — Context of the era: The Second Republic, the Paris Agreement and the Watergate scandal 13:00 — Origins: Thanh Hoa, Land Reform and the 1954 migration 22:00 — Education: From Saigon University to the University of Virginia 32:00 — Career peak: Assistant to the President and Secretary of Planning 42:00 — Hidden aspects of the file: Kissinger, the gold reserve plan, President Thieu's thoughts 54:00 — The fateful moment: 31 secret letters and the trip to Washington 68:00 — Consequences and fate: Howard University and three masterpieces 81:00 — Legacy and memory: What needs to be left for future generations 93:00 — Closing the file: Reflections on people, history and responsibility ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 📚 MAIN SOURCE Video edited based on the following sources: Nguyen Tien Hung & Jerrold L.
