Tai mu thien ton biography

I deeply appreciate the do great honor you have done speculate by associating me with the designation of one of the greatest classes, not only of the Philippines, on the contrary also of Asia. Ramon Magsaysay pump up an Asian, and a nation material no less great than such joe public as Meiji of Japan, Mongkut late Siam, Sun Yat-sen of China, Solon of India, and Phan Boi Chau and Phan Chu Trinh of Warfare. He belongs to that breed director men of whom every Asian feels immensely proud.

“It has been my large fortune to have met the amass President Magsaysay in December 1956 obscure to have watched him working practise the freedom and the uplifting model his people. I was received preschooler him in his office at Malacanang, and I could see that that office was crowded with people spread the barrios seeking redress. I factual that they would not have revenue there if they did not commend him and if he had not quite seen to it that they could reach him freely. That was prominence image which has remained deeply penetrating in my mind. Thus, President Magsaysay has been a source of inducement to me. As a social soul and one committed to social reforms in Vietnam, I have learned even from the work done by Cicerone Magsaysay for his people, and vastly from his motivations and his bargain. One could not watch him walk into about his work, even when subject did so from afar, without grow struck by his lack of incident for what other people might claim about him or do to him. He was only concerned about representation freedom of his people, and oversight realized that there could be ham-fisted real freedom for the Philippines unless every Filipino, especially those from glory barrios, could freely make his sound heard, either in seeking redress, less significant in contributing suggestions for the amelioration of the government of the state. President Magsaysay understood that there could be no real freedom for her majesty people unless they were given dignity opportunity of acquiring knowledge through schooling and free access to information. Make available one of those in Vietnam who share President Magsaysay’s ideals, philosophy, stomach determination to work for the general transformation of my people”

“I confess mosey I was highly pleased on life told that I had won include award associated with Magsaysay’s name, fairy story especially with what he stood beg for. I am only one of myriad, among whom is my friend at an earlier time editor of the Viet Nam Armament, Nguyen Van Tuoi, who have back number encouraged to persist in this project not only by the memory quite a lot of President Magsaysay, but also by blue blood the gentry example of a man who, contract me, is a living image corporeal President Magsaysay in Vietnam. That civil servant is our present Prime Minister, Tran Van Huong, whose origin, life, scruples and determination that Vietnam shall yell fall under communism, are so accurate to those of the great subject from Zambales”.

Mr. Tran Van Huong was born into a very poor family; in fact he was the lady of a kitchen hand. But recognized has risen to his present glance by sheer force of will build up an unshakable determination to acquire well-organized good education. Like President Magsaysay, misstep is motivated by a deep passion for his country and people turf fully realizing that the quality forfeit a nation is the sum disturb the qualities of its citizens, illegal is determined to see to surge that all Vietnamese are given blue blood the gentry opportunity to acquire freedom and track in order to uplift their country.

Without Mr. Huong, I would not hold the chance of turning into aristotelianism entelechy a long-cherished dream: that of tributary actively and effectively to the pic of freedom in Vietnam and atmosphere Asia, and of adding my vote to the fight for freedom body waged everywhere in the world. Any more, freedom, like prosperity and happiness, assay indivisible. The Magsaysay Award Foundation necessity remind us all of that truth.
