Ho Chi Minh quotations at an elementary school.
At the top is the beginning of "TO BENEFIT FOR A DECADE, PLANT TREES. TO BENEFIT FOR A CENTURY, PLANT HUMANS."
Frankly, that makes no sense, but that's what you'll find on practically all Vietnamese schools.
On the blue sign are "FIVE INSTRUCTIONS FROM UNCLE HO":
LOVE YOUR NATION, LOVE YOUR COMPATRIOTS
LEARN WELL, WORK WELL
UNITE WELL, BE WELL DISCIPLINED
MAINTAIN CLEANLINESS VERY WELL
BE HUMBLE, HONEST, BRAVE
Do you hear anything about Communism, socialism or internationalism? Hell no, it's all about maintaining, defending and improving one's nation. It's all about nationalism, which is what Vietnamese want to hear.
