Monk self immolation shocks Saigon crowd
In Saigon on June 11 an aged Buddhist monk, the Rev. Quang Duc, set himself on fire in a main street intersection. He died after remaining upright for several minutes as thousands watched. The act aimed to protest religious discrimination under President Ngo Dinh Diem. Monks and followers pointed to government bias while U S officials cautioned against external interference. The upheaval raised fears of broader political turmoil amid Viet Cong tensions.
