Tomorrow, August 18, the General Secretary cum State President To Lam and his wife will begin a visit to China.
This is the first time Mrs. Ngo Thi Phuong Ly has accompanied her husband on a foreign trip.
Ly, born in 1970, is 13 years younger than Lam. This is his second wife. The first wife was Nguyen Thi Kim Loan, born in 1959, only 2 years younger than To Lam.

She has 2 daughters with To Lam, To Ha Linh is the elder.
Returning to his first wife, Loan was from the same hometown as Lam in Hung Yen. She married to Lam in the early 1980s, when she was about 21 years old, working as an accountant, and he was about 23 years old, working at the Political Protection Department I, General Department of Security, with the rank of lieutenant.
Lam and Loan had 2 children, a boy and a girl, To Long (born in 1982) and To Mai Lien (born in 1988).

In the first marriage, after 10 years of happiness, Lam left his first wife and married to a new wife who was almost 12 years younger than his first wife.
It is worth mentioning that Lam left his first wife while she was facing many difficulties and hardships, the most serious of which was ovarian fibroids, which required surgery and led to her falling into a deep coma.
After their marriage broke up, Loan became a famous female medium (the medium in the spirit medium ritual). She was awarded the title of „Excellent Artist“ by the state in the field of intangible cultural heritage of worshiping the Three Palaces (spirit medium, spirit medium) of the Vietnamese people.
It is also necessary to clarify that on social networks, information is spreading that Lam’s first wife was Vu Hong Loan. That is false information.
