I also believe an armed struggle to remove the Vietnamese Communist Party from power is outdated. Vietnamese people has suffered enough from wars and death. At the threshold to the 21st century, Vietnamese have surely learnt that lesson from their still bleeding wounds. On the other hand, those that are struggling for democracy inside the country are not stupid either. Their actions, despite endless brutal punishment from the authorities, are part of a peaceful struggle founded on the deep belief of the eventual victory of the mind, without guns.
Time is on their side.
The world has fundamentally changed during this last decade of the century. The new world condition is their ally and the knowledge of the new world is their weapon. Lastly, I think all people that are struggling for the common cause of freedom and democracy in Vietnam should rise above their differences, including their past and political views. That is the only way to bring about changes and to combine the potential of all Vietnamese for the development of the country.
