I recently happened across a new name, derogatory to be sure, for Ho Chi Minh: Uncle Ho Pimpo, written by an anonymous Vietnamese. He is often referred to as "Uncle Ho" or simply as "Uncle" by his cult of loyal followers. His unmistakable vulture-like face peers oppressively down upon the people of his skinny Republic from every monument in triumph, and not as the face of a benevolent uncle as his worshippers declare, but more as the proud and arrogant winner in a deadly test of wills. The late great uncle was a degenerate, a bozo, with more muscle than brains.
Note: The officially recommended propaganda of Unesco (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) asked Member States that they "join in the commemoration of the centenary [1990] of the birth of President Ho Chi Minh by organizing various events as a tribute to his memory.", recognizing "the important and many-sided contribution of President Ho Chi Minh in the fields of culture, education and the arts" and that Ho Chi Minh "devoted his whole life to the national liberation of the Vietnamese people, contributing to the common struggle of peoples for peace, national independence, democracy and social progress."
