Lessons From Vietnam - The Nation China, France and USA Could Not Break Timeless wisdom, history and geostrategy from Vietnam; a nation that overcame global superpowers to maintain its cultural identity, water rights, energy, and food security for its people. World population growth is causing nations to increasingly compete for natural resources (water, food and energy) resulting in widespread environmental pollution, degradation and depletion of precious commodities necessary to sustain life. Thus domestic policy and geostrategy demands new methods and approaches to environmental health, peaceful collaboration, and resource protection. Mutual respect for shared natural resources such as international rivers nourishing nations must be approached and managed more holistically. China's mismanagement of its natural and environmental resources has resulted in countless rivers drying up and widespread water pollution leaving 200 million people without access to clean water. Greed, selfishness and transnational power grabs for precious resources are disrupting the ecosystem and causing global insecurity. By revisiting, revaluating and thoroughly examining their approach to environmental health, water management and natural resources nations can reform their societies and improve public health. The mighty rivers of the world feed the nations, sustain the ecosystem, and teach the peoples of the world the importance of cooperation, sharing, caring and working together. Ho Chi Minh's wisdom and geopolitical insight provides nations perspective and guidance to lead their people, promote public health, and direct the course of their international dealings in a humane and environmentally holistic fashion to ensure future water, food and homeland security.
