Created in 1924, the Vietnam Revolutionary Youth Association was an illegal proletarian organization that agitated workers in mines, factories and plantations. They also worked with peasants and the petty bourgeoisie. In May 1929, they held a congress in Hong Kong and the Bắc Kỳ delegation from northern Vietnam proposed to dissolve the association and form a communist party. This proposal was not accepted, so the Bắc Kỳ delegation left and formed the Indochinese Communist Party. In October, the Nam Kỳ branch of the VRYA from the far south of Vietnam created the Annamese Communist Party. In February 1930, Ho Chi Minh convened a meeting of the the VRYA, ICP, and ACP in Hong Kong, where the three organizations were unified into the Communist Party of Vietnam.[1]
