The discussion on “Studying Ho Chi Minh’s moral example” organized by the Youth Union of the University of Social Sciences and Humanities on May 19, 2008, aimed to summarize one year of implementing the campaign “Studying and following Ho Chi Minh’s moral example”, and at the same time determine the direction of implementing this campaign in the second year with the focus on “Following Ho Chi Minh’s moral example”. With the question: “What should Youth Union members do to study and follow Ho Chi Minh’s moral example?” and “What should the Youth Union do to make this movement widely, practically and effectively implemented with students?”, we recorded many opinions on the sidelines of the discussion.

I think that today’s youth and students still need to try harder and make more efforts to be worthy of Uncle Ho’s trust and love. And studying and following Ho Chi Minh’s moral example is also a way to help us improve ourselves. There are many ways to study and follow Uncle Ho’s example, but should we first implement Uncle Ho’s teachings about youth, and cultivate the moral qualities that Uncle Ho requires of the future generation of our country?
[img class="caption" src="images/stories/2008/5/thuy%20hang.jpg" border="0" title="Master Nguyen Thi Thuy Hang" hspace="5" vspace="5" align="right" ]The School Youth Union can launch a movement to carry out the 5 things Uncle Ho told the youth:
Firstly, we must always uphold the revolutionary spirit of "loyalty to the country, filial piety to the people, completing every task, overcoming every difficulty, defeating every enemy"; not being afraid of hardships and sacrifices, enthusiastically competing to increase production and bravely fighting, volunteering to take the lead in the revolutionary cause.
Second, deeply believe in the strength and intelligence of the collective and the people; strengthen solidarity and mutual assistance; raise awareness of organization and discipline; resolutely oppose individualism and liberalism.
Third, always cultivate revolutionary ethics, modesty and simplicity; fight against arrogance and complacency; fight against waste and extravagance; practice self-criticism and serious criticism to help each other progress forever.
Fourth, strive to improve political, cultural, scientific, technical and military levels to contribute more and more to the Fatherland and the people.
Fifth, always pay attention to guiding and educating teenagers and children, setting a good example in all aspects for younger generations to follow.
If we can follow the above advice of Uncle Ho, we are educating ourselves comprehensively, living better and contributing more to the country and society.
In particular, young people and students need to promote the cultivation of moral qualities that Ho Chi Minh requires of Vietnamese people in the new era: Loyalty to the country, filial piety to the people; Diligence, Thrift, Integrity, Uprightness, Impartiality; Love for humanity; Pure international spirit, etc.
Many students are in difficult circumstances, we can learn and help each other through specific actions: donating to support friends, introducing part-time jobs, etc. Many lives around us need sympathy and sharing: orphans, disabled people, lonely elderly people, etc. Our help to them is not only meaningful in terms of material but more importantly, it encourages them spiritually, so that they have more determination and love for life. Green Summer Campaign, Volunteer Students, etc., we have done, are doing and will do better. Or, studying well is also the duty of young students as taught by Uncle Ho.
In addition to learning Uncle Ho's morality, we can also learn from the examples of teachers and friends around us. And let that learning enter into the daily lives of young people and students, not just mass activities. Because learning and following the moral example of Ho Chi Minh is to help us live better and more beautifully.
First of all, each member and student must be imbued with the moral values of Ho Chi Minh. This does not stop at just reading theory but must be demonstrated by practical actions. Currently, our Party is launching the campaign "Studying and following the moral example of Ho Chi Minh" (2006-2011). This is the second year of the campaign. After studying, follow Uncle Ho's example. So how should we, the youth union members, follow Uncle Ho?
Learning from Uncle Ho is not far away but is shown in concrete actions and good deeds in life: such as students turning off the lights before leaving school, keeping clean, protecting public property, not being late for school, studying hard, not cheating on exams, saying no to social evils... In this way, each member and student will easily visualize what they need to do and how, and certainly the movement will go deeper and be more effective. At the same time, when each person has trained themselves to live a moral life, they should try to see how much they have done, evaluate themselves, and from there help those around them, those who have not done well.
In addition, the issue of studying and following Ho Chi Minh's moral example is also reflected in the need for all teachers to set an example and instruct on ethical issues arising in each specific profession, so that students upon graduation can become both "red" and "professional" people as Uncle Ho wished. This is truly a great and sustainable result, contributing practically to the current national construction.
Youth Union members can learn and follow Uncle Ho's example in many specific, daily activities in life. To orient student union members, the school's Youth Union should launch movements and activities that are close and have practical meaning for students. In my opinion, there should be daily movement activities and activities that are highlights.
Daily movements such as: to remind students to keep the environment clean and save money, the school union can make reminders such as: "If you are a polite person, please do not litter", or "Please turn off the lights when leaving the room". These funny reminders can be placed in visible places, and over time will form good habits in students. Or build a movement to study and work scientifically, such as fighting against sleeping in dormitories... That is the direction for students to learn from Uncle Ho in saving time, studying hard and participating in activities that are useful for themselves and society.
Highlighted movements such as organizing book exhibitions, parties, exchanging school supplies... The social sciences and humanities are interdisciplinary, so exchanging books with each other is very necessary. We can organize exhibitions, introduce reference books on the basis of mobilizing book resources from students themselves, then exchange with each other. Old people, new us. That is also a way to encourage the love of reading and exchanging scientific information, information about life among students. Or organize a party where each person will bring a lovely object or item to exchange and give to each other - a very student way, helping to increase communication and create small joys for themselves and those around them.
Personally, I will learn from Uncle Ho from simple things such as exercising and playing sports to maintain health, ensure studying; create good, close, simple, sincere relationships with people around me like Uncle Ho himself did.
I admire Uncle Ho most for his virtue of sacrifice, sacrificing personal needs for the common interests of everyone, of the collective, of the nation. Nowadays, there are young people who are given opportunities to study by their families and society but cannot overcome the usual temptations, living a life of competition, hedonism, pragmatism, selfishness, and engaging in many social evils. They have failed the sacrifices of their parents, relatives, teachers and friends. There are students who do not dare to fight against bad habits and negativity in schools and society.
In my opinion, youth union members should learn from Uncle Ho's example of sacrifice by participating in activities that are beneficial to society: helping the lonely, donating blood, volunteering... Participating in those activities will help us live a better life, more meaningfully for ourselves and useful to the community. In the school environment, youth union members should actively contribute constructive ideas to the general movement, know how to sacrifice, contribute to the collective, know how to help people around them sincerely...
In my opinion, students should learn and follow Uncle Ho's example from their own work and activities related to students, specifically demonstrated in two aspects of studying and cultivating morality. First of all, students need to study well, this is our top priority. Study well to gain knowledge, have the ability to work, assert themselves and contribute to the country and society. Second, students should cultivate morality, live beautifully, live healthily, have social knowledge and culture. These two things complement each other to form a person's personality.
On the part of the school union, in addition to launching the movement to study and follow the moral example of Ho Chi Minh, there must be specific implementation activities. In particular, propaganda and communication activities should be further promoted to a large number of students in all classes. For example, there should be a propaganda team that understands Ho Chi Minh's moral ideology as well as the orientations and activities of this movement to go to each class to present, talk to students and let them listen and follow...
Recently, our school has had some good activities such as organizing the Competition to Study and Follow the Moral Example of Ho Chi Minh. In my opinion, there should be more competitions like this, along with many other extracurricular activities so that the movement can be deployed more widely to each student. Through that, students will also be able to approach Uncle Ho's thoughts and orient their own activities.
In my opinion, union members should learn and follow Ho Chi Minh's moral example first of all through their own practical actions in life and study. Study well to be a good student, live a healthy life and actively contribute to building a civilized cultural and social environment.
Right from the launch of the Politburo, under the direction of the School Party Committee, the School Youth Union established a Steering Committee for the movement to study and follow the moral example of the school's youth. On May 19, the School Youth Union conducted a preliminary review of one year of implementing the movement. In general, with many forms and integrated activities, the propaganda work of the movement has reached each student union member. In the coming school year, the School Youth Union plans to organize and launch specific action movements to study Uncle Ho's moral example with the orientation of building the image of students with good professional and scientific skills and a disciplined and civilized school environment.
Besides the primary goal of studying well, Youth Union members must strive to train and cultivate themselves, following the valuable lessons that Uncle Ho passed on to the younger generation. They need to cultivate the pure character of a Youth Union member, stay away from social evils, and determine their duty to study so that they can later contribute and serve the interests of the country.
The school's Youth Union should continue to organize seminars on this topic for Youth Union members at Youth Union facilities, encouraging students to participate in research activities. At the same time, the school's Youth Union should have activities to reward and commend outstanding Youth Union members who perform their tasks well.
