DEFENDING THE NATION

Phan Ngoc Hien — The Hon Khoai uprising

Directly led the Hon Khoai uprising in Ca Mau in 1940.

A story of patriotism in Vietnam’s far south.

On 13 December 1940, Phan Ngoc Hien led the Hon Khoai uprising. This is a connection through activity, not birthplace.

He and his comrades were executed in 1941. Their memorial temple preserves the memory of their sacrifice.

Places to understand the story

Visit the temple commemorating the ten martyrs of the Hon Khoai uprising.
