Luo Guibo

Luo Guibo (Chinese: 罗贵波) (1907–1995) was a Chinese diplomat and People's Republic of China politician. He was born in Nankang County, Jiangxi (modern Nankang District, Ganzhou). He joined the Communist Party of China in 1927. During the Second Sino-Japanese War, he was a general officer in the Eighth Route Army. Luo served as director of the Administrative Office of the CCP Military Affairs committee, and in January 1950 was sent to Vietnam as liaison to Ho Chi-Minh.[1] He was the first Ambassador of China to North Vietnam (1954–1957).

From October 1957 to October 1970, he was China's Vice-Minister of Foreign Affairs.[2] During Hong Kong's 1967 riots, he denounced the British colonial government's "atrocities", "sanguinary oppression" and "collusion with American imperialism against China" in a formal protest presented to the British chargé d'affaires in Beijing.[3]

Luo was governor of Shanxi.[4][5]
