I believe many people are familiar with Ho Chi Minh. He was the leader of the Vietnamese independence movement and had a very close relationship with China. He had been in China for more than 20 years and was very familiar with the Chinese language. However, after Vietnam became independent, he ordered the abolition of Chinese characters.
In fact, this was the result of nationalism rising to the extreme at that time. Although Ho Chi Minh was proficient in Chinese, he was also a nationalist, so after the founding of Vietnam, he quickly abolished Chinese characters! In fact, this is not a matter of being wise or not, nor is it a matter of personal prejudice, but is determined by the historical background and world environment at that time. It should be said that it was the trend of the times at that time! However, there are no absolutes in everything, there are pros and cons! After the abolition of Chinese characters, just like North Korea, South Korea, and Japan, the historical and cultural inheritance of these countries will become a problem! What's more, Chinese characters are the best writing in the world! Relatively speaking, Japanese people are smarter. Japanese Hiragana still retains many characteristics of Chinese characters and calligraphy.
There is also a theory that Ho Chi Minh was arrested and tortured in China. The 13 months of torture made him hate Mr. Chiang very much, so it was extended to Chinese characters. This shouldn't be very likely.
Chinese characters have been abolished, but problems have also arisen. Almost no one can understand many classical documents and archaeological excavations (because they are all written in Chinese characters). It is said that someone once found an imperial edict from an ancient emperor in a farmer's home. When the experts went there, they were confused because they couldn't understand all the Chinese characters.
