Answer:
Both Phan Boi
Chau and Phan Chu Trinh were nationalists. Both of them wanted to free Vietnam
from colonial occupation.
Difference:
(i) Phan Boi
Chau: He formed a revolutionary society in 1903, with Prince Cuong as the head.
He wrote a book. The History of the Loss of Vietnam, which became bestseller in
Vietnam and China. He focused on two topics in this book:
(a) the loss of
sovereignty and
(b) the severing
of ties with China-ties that bound the elites of two countries within a shared
culture.
(ii) Phan
Chu Trinh: He did not favour monarchy and opposed the idea of resisting the
French with the help of court. He wanted to establish a democratic republic. He
was profoundly influenced by the west and did not want total rejection of
western civilisation. He demanded that the French set up legal and educational
institutions and developed agriculture and industries.
