This is why you shouldn't just blindly copy Socialism with Chinese Characteristics without parsing it for yourself, this is almost identical to the issue with education material in Xinjiang during the period. Alas CPC can make mistakes too, and similar mistakes are more dangerous to CPV since they have less margin for error.A very interesting and illuminating read on Vietnam's political landscape and the expungement of its "liberal president" that has contributed to the Anti-China wave back in 2018 and the purposeful rehabilitation of the U.S. image at the expense of China.
I didn't realize that any leader in Vietnam seen as weak against China will be viewed as a TRAITOR. That the head of their textbooks and history was headed or given to the very person that wanted to do away with the party (CPV) bring in multi-party, rehabilitate the image of South Vietnam's then government for the sake of "unity."
If Vietnam isn't careful, they would become the next SOVIET UNION: a failed state reverting back to the north south out into the open.
