| Revolutionary Phan Dang Luu was born in 1902 in Trang Thanh commune (now Hoa Thanh, Yen Thanh district). Since childhood, he was famous for his intelligence and good study. At the age of 16, he took the Huong exam, although he had to declare his age 2 years older to be able to take the exam. In 1923, he was appointed to the position of Thong Phan, working as an employee at the Bac Ky Agricultural Department, so he was also known as Phan Tam. At the end of 1925, he was transferred to the Nghe An Agricultural Department in Vinh. Here, he had contact with a number of members of the Phuc Viet Association, regularly discussed current events and read revolutionary documents. It was during this time that he was exposed to the first Communist documents in French.... In September 1939, he was mobilized to work in the South and was assigned by the Central Committee to be in charge of the revolutionary movement in the provinces of the South. In November 1940, at Dinh Bang, Bac Ninh, he chaired the 7th Central Conference. Here, he was nominated to be General Secretary, but he did not accept, because he thought he needed to return to the South, where the Regional Party Committee and the people were waiting for the results of the trip and were on guard against his arrest, which would hinder the newly consolidated Central Committee in the North. Immediately after the conference, he returned to the South to postpone the Southern uprising, according to the decision of the Central Committee, due to an informant, he was arrested by French secret police on the night of November 22, 1940 when he had just arrived in Saigon, before he could convey the Central Committee's instructions. On August 26, 1941, he was executed at the Nga Ba Giong shooting range, Hoc Mon, Gia Dinh, along with comrade Nguyen Van Cu. |
