President NGO DINH DIEM
(Who was killed by the traitors in the same year 1963)
Ngô Đình Diệm January 3, 1901 – November 2, 1963) was the first
president of South Vietnam (1955–1963). In the wake of the French
withdrawal from Indochina as a result of the 1954 Geneva Accords, Diệm
led the effort to create the Republic of Vietnam. Accruing
considerable U.S. support due to his staunch anti-Communism, he
achieved victory in a 1955 plebiscite that was widely considered
fraudulent. Proclaiming himself the Republic's first President, he
demonstrated considerable political skill in the consolidation of his
power, and his rule proved authoritarian, elitist, nepotistic, and
corrupt. A Roman Catholic, Diệm pursued policies that rankled and
oppressed the Republic's Montagnard natives and its Buddhist majority.
Amid religious protests that garnered worldwide attention, Diệm lost
the backing of his U.S. patrons and was assassinated by Nguyen Van
Nhung, the aide of ARVN General Duong Van Minh on November 2, 1963,
during a coup d'état that deposed his government.
