Rationale Ho Chi Minh’s Thought is the ideological foundation of our Party and the great spiritual property of our people, guiding the struggle of our people to go to victory. Promoting learning, applying and following his thoughts is an extremely important and meaningful work for the Vietnamese revolution in the period of accelerating the national industrialization, modernization and integration getting deeper and deeper. Patriotism runs like a red thread throughout history, is a noble spiritual product, holding the highest standard for morality and leading the ladder of cultural and spiritual values of the Vietnamese nation. Patriotism acts as a great endogenous motivation of the Vietnamese ethnic community, creating the unrivaled power in the resistance wars against foreign aggression and in the cause of building the country. Young people are the mainstay of the country, are the future owners of the country, are the pioneering force in building and defending the Fatherland, which are one of the factors determining the success or failure of the Vietnamese revolution. Taking care, fostering and educating young people are really important and necessary in order to ensure the stability and sustainable development of the country. Nowadays, we are striving to build a Vietnam which is peaceful, rich, independent, democratic and going up to socialism. This is a great and glorious career but really arduous, complex and unprecedented. For the purpose of accomplishing this career, one of the most important motivations is to promote learning, following Ho Chi Minh’s Thought, arousing and highly promoting patriotism in the Party, in all strata of the population, especially young generations who will be successors, continuing to raise the flag of national independence associated with socialism to go to the final victory. Applying Ho Chi Minh’s Thought in the work of educating patriotism to young people is a significant part of the ideological work of our Party. Over the past years, this work has achieved encouraging results, for instance, the party committees led the political system and the whole society to better perform the work of educating 2 patriotism to young people; the quality of the cadres who were directly involved in educational tasks was constantly improved; educational programs, contents and methods were regularly innovated; material conditions for education were interested in investing and improving, etc. Nevertheless, in addition to these positive ones, the patriotism education for young people on the basis of applying Ho Chi Minh’s Thought has limited in awareness; the quality of the team directly working on educational tasks was weak and lacking, educational contents and methods remained inadeqate, a part of young people also showed signs of deteriorating politcal thought, morality and lifestyle, ... The above-mentioned limitations and shortcomings are due to many reasons, of which a very basic one is the lack of a thorough and comprehensive study on the values of Ho Chi Minh’s Thought so that they would be applied in accordance with the current situation.
