The first time, Uncle Ho stayed from April 6, 1949 to May 16, 1949, in a small stilt house near the Pho Day River. Next to the house was a volleyball court where Uncle Ho and his close comrades played volleyball every day. Here, Uncle Ho wrote the article "Bitter Medicine for the Disease of Sectarianism," discussing its significance, purpose, and critique methods. He also chaired expanded Central Committee meetings to discuss political, governmental, and economic projects in preparation for the Party Congress.
The second time, Uncle Ho stayed from June 1, 1949 to early January 1950. During this period, he completed the book "Frugality, Industry, Honesty, and Integrity." Notably, he wrote the poem "Boating on the Pho Day River," reflecting on his boat trip to visit the resistance cadre's class in the district town of Son Duong and the article "People's Movement," dated October 15, 1949.
Later, the poem "Boating on the Pho Day River" became a literary masterpiece in textbooks, and the article "People's Movement" became the Traditional Day of People's Work of the Party. On January 2, 1950, dressed in the traditional attire of the Nung ethnic group, Uncle Ho secretly set out on a diplomatic mission to the Soviet Union and China to expand diplomatic relations.
The third time, Uncle Ho stayed from April to September 1950, following a long overseas diplomatic trip. Evaluating the success of the trip, Uncle Ho affirmed it as the greatest victory in Vietnamese history. Recognition from the Soviet Union, China, and other new democratic countries broke the siege of imperialism on the Democratic Republic of Vietnam. From then on, Vietnam's resistance gained strength from the world revolution, transitioning step by step into the counter-offensive and offensive phase.

In June 1950, at Khau Lau - Vuc Ho, the Party Central and Uncle Ho decided to launch the Border Campaign. Uncle Ho instructed, "This campaign is only for victory, not for defeat."
In August 1950, Uncle Ho and the Party Central approved the operational plan for the campaign. At the beginning of September 1950, Uncle Ho departed from Khau Lau to direct the Border Campaign of 1950.
During this time, Uncle Ho wrote many famous works, articles, speeches, letters, signed important decrees, and chaired or participated in many important activities of the Central Committee and the Government.
Some of the famous works written during this period include the article "Bitter Medicine for the Disease of Sectarianism," written in April 1949. In this article, Uncle Ho analyzed: "Bitter medicine cures diseases, speaking the truth serves well. Criticism is the remedy for rectifying shortcomings... We revolutionize for the people and the country. For a successful revolution, unity and progress are essential... Criticism is the right and duty of everyone, it is practicing democracy. To refrain from criticism is to relinquish one's democratic rights." These works written by Uncle Ho during his time at Khau Lau - Vuc Ho still hold their value today.
