The General Nguyen Chi Thanh Museum also organized a workshop to introduce a book titled “Journey for Peace” compiled by General Thanh’s son, the late Senior Lieutenant General Professor Dr. Nguyen Chi Vinh, together with a team of experts and advisors, and other members of his family.
The book, published by the Army Publishing House, tells a story about the journey from Vinh’s field study in Africa in 2013 to strategic decisions of the Party, State, and Central Military Commission on establishing the Vietnamese peacekeeping force.
