Come. Come. Without exception, *all* the successful literacy
cammpaigns of the 20th century have been the activity of revolutionary
regimes. Vietnam, Cuba, USSR, China, Nicaragua. Back in the '50s and
'60s "North" Vietnam devoted considerable sources to providing
alphabets for languages in Vietnam which had none so that literacy
campaigns could be launched among those people. Cuba has the
highest literacy rate in Latin America.
