If you go Hanoi, there is a monument commerating the sacriface and bravery of PLA anti-aircraft regiment protecting the airspace of Hanoi during Vietnam war.

And if you go Saigon, even nowadays, they would tell you they are "not the same bunch" as the Hanoi ones, they just hold the same passport.

The point is, a bunch of people doing "what is necessary" to keep certain "political flavor" of something like "build a monument", is just for the sake of that political flavor - they simply don't meant for it.

Stuff like monument in N.K and N.V alike, are more like a stage show nowadays. N.K for example, they demolished ALL of the People's Volunteer Army's monuments during the period when China and Soviet "have a difference"; and they rebuilt those monuments, when Soviet collaps and the "International Aid" stops coming.

"Let them dance / jump..." I say this like most of the rest of Chinese people, they simply choose the role as "permanent PAWNs (of others)".
