Ho Chi Minh ruled Vietnam for more than two decades, stood as a communist figurehead around the world, and opposed the US in the Vietnam War. But in May 2013, a memorial stone dedicated to \u2018Uncle Ho\u2019 was unveiled in Newhaven on the East Sussex coast. This was to mark how, a century earlier, he had lived in England as a young man, including, he claimed, a spell as a chef on the ferry between Newhaven and Dieppe. The Vietnamese ambassador to the UK also presented a statue of Ho Chi Minh to a local museum, where it still resides today.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
