Indochinese Communist Party
The Indochinese Communist Party (ICP)[1] was a political party which was transformed from the old Vietnamese Communist Party (Vietnamese: Đảng Cộng-sản Việt-Nam (黨共産越南）) in October 1930. It was renamed in line with Comintern directives to reflect its regional mission.
This party de jure dissolved itself on 11 November 1945. It was the second stage in the history of the Communist Party of Vietnam.
The Vietnamese Communist Party was founded on 3 February 1930 by uniting the Communist Party of Indochina (despite its name, this party was active only in Tonkin) and the Communist Party of Annam (active only in Cochinchina). Thereafter, the Communist League of Indochina (active only in central Annam) joined the Vietnamese Communist Party. However, the Comintern argued that the communist movement should be promoted in the whole of French Indochina (including Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam) rather than only in Vietnam, therefore it urged the Vietnamese Communist Party to transform itself into the Indochinese Communist Party. The Communist International had a substantial degree of control both over the party's policies and over the composition of its leadership in return of financial aid.
The League for National Salvation of Vietnamese Residents of Kampuchea was a pro-Viet Minh movement of Vietnamese inhabitants in Cambodia.
The organization emerged from a network of revolutionary committees formed among Vietnamese residents in the border areas of Cambodia towards the end of 1946. Such groups had emerged in places like Takéo Province, Prey Veng Province and southern Kandal Province. The League for National Salvation of Vietnamese Residents of Kampuchea was set up as a front organization of the Indochinese Communist Party in March 1947, merging the various local revolutionary committees. One of the first Viet Minh documents captured by the French in Cambodia was dated 30 April 1949 and revealed the existence of the League, as well as detailing a proposed Vietnamese-Khmer alliance against the French.
In 1950, Vietnamese sources claimed the organization had a membership of 50,000.
The ICP was initially tied closely to the Viet Minh, a Vietnamese nationalist and communist resistance group. The organization sought to coordinate revolutionary activity across the entire Indochinese region. In Cambodia, this manifested in the creation of the League for National Salvation of Vietnamese Residents of Kampuchea, which was later transformed into a pro-Viet Minh movement among the Vietnamese diaspora in Cambodia.
The party's influence stretched as far as Laos, where local communist forces formed their own alliances with the ICP. While the Vietnamese leadership, spearheaded by figures like Hồ Chí Minh, maintained the dominant role within the ICP, the organization's members in Cambodia and Laos played crucial roles in shaping the local revolutionary movements, leading to the eventual creation of the Cambodian People's Party (CPP) and Lao People's Party.
