HA NOI (VNS)  — A book on the late General Vo Nguyen Giap's great vision on business and economic development will be published next month by the People's Police Publishing House.

The book will include General Giap's reports and articles on economic issues, his view on the role of businessmen in society and his letters to enterprises. The book will also have a few illustrated images that have never been published before.

It is the brainchild of the general's family, the general's office, the Club of Vietnamese Industrialists and Traders and the Centre for Economic Training, Advising and Information.

Vo Nguyen Giap (1911-2013) was a general of the Viet Nam People's Army and a politician. He first rose to prominence during World War II, when he served as the leader of the military for the Viet Minh resistance movement against the Japanese occupation of Viet Nam.

Giap was also a principal commander in two wars: the First Indochina War (1946-54) and the American War (1960-75). — VNS
