Abstract

The humanistic values in Ho Chi Minh’s thought on democracy are clearly shown in the principle: "The people are the masters, and the people act as masters". Ho Chi Minh identified the people as the center; all power belongs to the people and serves the people. This is demonstrated through Ho Chi Minh's tireless struggle for national independence and his efforts to create the conditions for the people to truly participate in the decision-making and social management. The humanistic values in Ho Chi Minh’s thought on democracy serves as the compass for the cause of renovation and development of the country, both now and in the future.
