Mr. Pham Phu Thu (1821 - 1882), whose given name was Truc Duong, nicknamed Gia Vien, was born in Dong Ban village, Dien Phuoc district (now Dien Trung commune, Dien Ban town).
Mr. Pham Phu Thu was a “rare” case among Quang Nam scholars in the old imperial examination period when he consecutively passed the “Double-first” exam. In 1842, when he was only 22 years old, he took the Huong exam and passed the Giai Nguyen (First place) exam. The following year, he passed the Hoi exam and passed the top exam. In the Dinh exam, he passed the top exam among the five third-class candidates who passed the same Doctorate exam. That was the Doctorate exam in the year of Quy Mao (1843), during the reign of King Thieu Tri.
The famous mandarin Pham Phu Thu was a great intellectual, leaving his mark in many fields of politics , economics, culture - society, foreign affairs... when he was an official under the Nguyen Dynasty. He was a man of integrity and integrity, in this aspect, he can be considered a typical example of the character of a person from Quang.
The famous mandarin Pham Phu Thu left many outstanding marks, especially in "kinh bang te the" (taking care of the country and helping people). Throughout his official career, aware of the country's declining situation, Pham Phu Thu made many moves that clearly demonstrated his innovative and reformist thinking.
