Phu Rieng rubber plantation belonging to Michelin Company was established in Phu Rieng village, Ba Ra district, Bien Hoa province (now belongs to Dong Phu Rubber Joint Stock Company). When investing in exploiting and developing rubber here, French capitalists recruited hundreds of thousands of people from the Northern and Central provinces to the South to work as laborers. With the support of the colonial government apparatus, French capitalists severely and cruelly exploited the labor of the laborers such as: beatings, salary cuts, torture, harsh working regimes, homeless, hungry, lacking clothes, living in "hell on earth", causing "For every rubber tree that grows, a worker falls". The workers only knew how to react in spontaneous ways such as cutting down rubber trees, protesting, fleeing... but all were severely suppressed.

This place was built by the French colonialists in 1933 to commemorate District Chief More - one of the notoriously cruel rulers of the French colonialists in Ba Ra district at that time. In the early years of the twentieth century, the French colonialists promoted rubber planting and exploitation in Cochinchina, including Ba Ra district in Bien Hoa province. France considers this region a sacred forest and poisonous water and often calls it with the ironic name "the land of all teeth and ears straining". They turned this into a place to exile opponents and force them to do hard labor to serve the rubber plantation capitalists. At the same time, here, the French colonial government implemented a sinister policy of appropriation, using every trick to exhaust the labor and humiliate the ethnicity of the S'tieng people. Because of their national identity and unable to continue their harsh life, the S'tieng people stood up to fight against the enemy. In 1933, two brothers Dieu Mon and Dieu Mot (in Soc Bu Sum), who had participated in leader N'Trang Long's insurrection movement in the 1920s, stood up to campaign and gathered about 200 young people.

Loc Ninh incident. It is a beautiful, unforgettable image. That smile entered poetry as a beautiful image: "Very naturally, that girl brought a smile into history for thousands of years" and that smile also proved her previous strong statement. "Will your government exist for 20 years to imprison me?". Also here on September 12, 1973, we welcomed the International Commission delegation and the ambassadors and deputy heads of delegations of the International Commission to visit and work in Loc Ninh. Later, many Americans went to the old battlefield during their trips to Vietnam to remember "that day of Loc Ninh". History has turned a page, the past has ended, but for the Loc Ninh family, those days will never be in the past.

On April 7, 1972, Loc Ninh was completely liberated. This was the first district liberated in the entire South. Since then, Loc Ninh is the gathering place of Political, Military, Logistics agencies... Especially the House of Relations - Headquarters of the Provisional Revolutionary Government of the Republic of South Vietnam. The house was built in 1911, as the office of the French rubber company Xeo - Xo, to manage the exploitation of rubber latex in Loc Ninh. The house is built in the style of stilt houses of ethnic minorities, so people in the area still call it "Cao Can" House. During the Nguyen Hue campaign (1972), the house was completely destroyed. In March 1973, in response to the needs of the work situation on the diplomatic front, the Provisional Revolutionary Government of the Republic of South Vietnam agreed to choose the location of the foundation of the "Cao Cang" house to build the revolutionary headquarters with Design drawings by architect Huynh Tan Phat. The house was built to welcome domestic and foreign diplomatic delegations, so it is called "The House of Relations". After more than a month of construction, the grand and spacious project was completed, including a ground floor and a first floor. The ground floor is built of solid concrete, used for meetings, mitting and is also where cultural and artistic activities take place. The upper floor is built of wood, surrounded by railings designed in the style of a stateroom, with a "5-roof, 4-roof" corrugated iron roof painted red. In this room, in 1973, a four-way military conference between Vietnam and the United States took place; The four-party conference discussed the provisions signed in the Paris Agreement under the supervision of the ICCS International Committee, including four member countries: Poland, Canada, Hungary and Indonesia. During meetings, there is a clear division from the aisles, meeting seating positions and resting positions during breaks... are all arranged separately. Representatives of the four delegations sat in a large round table, the International Committee sat in a small round table, and four small tables in the four corners of the house were the seating positions of the four parties' attachés. All are under the flag of the National Front for the Liberation of South Vietnam. On both sides there are two stairs going up. Looking out from inside the house, the staircase on the right is the path of the Vietnam People's Army, the left is the path of the American military and the Republic of Vietnam. Choosing a square or round table for a meeting is also an issue of concern to all parties. When meeting at Camp David (Saigon) or meeting in Paris, the Four-Party Joint Military Committee used square or rectangular tables to sit at meetings, but when meeting at the House of Exchange, they chose round tables. Because a round table shows equality and respect between parties, but if it is a square or rectangular table, when one of the four parties stands up to speak in the meeting, it will be like that party is the chairman of the meeting. When using a round table, all parties are equal. The birth of Giao Te House has fulfilled its historical mission, being a testament to the defeat of American imperialism and its henchmen, in addition to the heroic and clever struggle of our army and people. on both military and diplomatic fronts in the struggle to protect national independence and unify the country. The Relics of the Provisional Revolutionary Government Headquarters of the Republic of South Vietnam (House of Relations) were recognized by the Ministry of Culture as a National Historical Monument on December 12, 1986.
