History

The Ho Chi Minh City office, along with its counterpart in Hanoi, was established in June 1992.^[5] Until 1975, Taiwan, as the Republic of China, had an Embassy in Saigon.^[6] From 1964 to 1972, Republic of China Army General Hu Lien served as Ambassador.^[7] However, it suspended its operations after the defeat of South Vietnam by the Communist North, which had maintained full diplomatic relations with the People's Republic of China.^[8]
