"One need not fear of having little but of not having equal distribution of goods." -- Confucius. (This is lifted from William Duiker's "Ho Chi Minh: A Life".)
Ho Chi Minh is portrayed as a man of simple needs and lifestyle.
the presidential palace in hanoi
the frugal study room with his "idols".
he preferred to stay in his stilt house and shunned the palace. it has a bomb shelter at the back.
one of two cars he owned.
