| Tiivistelmä: | The party rails against foreign influence, but corruption is the real threat to its legitimacy. Le Van Phuc used every while to avoid a life sentence. He brandished his revolutionary credentials: His father and brother died fighting the Americans, and his mother spent years in jail for hiding the Viet Cong. "I've always been conscious of being a good citizen," Phuc pleaded. "I beg your honour for your better understanding of me." Once upon a time, such an appeal might have won him clemency. |
