Southern Vietnam Radio and Telecommunications Agency
The Southern Vietnam Radio and Telecommunications Agency – A Heroic Legacy in the Heart of Dong Thap. The Southern Vietnam Radio and Telecommunications Agency historical site is located at the Go Muoi Tai base in the Dong Thap Muoi region, now Phu Cuong commune, Tam Nong district, Dong Thap province. Established and operating secretly from 1945 to 1954, it was one of the first cradles of revolutionary communications in Southern Vietnam. Through the passage of time and the vicissitudes of history, it has been rebuilt and restored into a solemn historical site. The grounds are highlighted by the majestic Monument to the Southern Vietnam Radio and Telecommunications Agency, along with memorial structures commemorating the contributions of previous generations. This space not only preserves the memory of the rudimentary machinery repair workshop and the former telegraph operator training school, but also marks the glorious milestones during the nine years of service in the resistance war against the French, maintaining the uninterrupted flow of information between the Southern battlefield and the Central Government. Not only is it historically significant for the postal service, but the site is also a brilliant symbol of the patriotic spirit of the Southern region. Overcoming bombing raids and harsh conditions, it served as a safe transit point, ensuring the transportation of weapons, documents, and transporting tens of thousands of cadres to and from the battlefield. With its immense historical significance, the Southern Vietnam Radio and Telecommunications Post Office site today is not only a symbol of gratitude to our forefathers, but also a destination rich in cultural values, contributing to the education of revolutionary traditions for future generations.
