South Vietnamese soldier and politician. In Japan, he is called Nguyen Van Thieu. He was born in Ninh Thuan, Central Vietnam.

He then opposed North Vietnam and the National Liberation Front with the support of the United States, and ousted Vice President Nguyen Cao Ky and other opposition forces. He was re-elected president in 1971 and established a dictatorship.
