Early life

Linh was born in Ba Lang, Tinh Gia, Thanh Hóa Province, Bắc Trung Bộ, Vietnam, on 22 November 1949, the son of Christian parents (Thiher Giaia, Thanh Hóa) from a modest background.

He attended the minor seminary in Nha Trang (1962–67), the school école de la Providence divine ("Divine Providence") in Huế (1967–68), the secondary school collège du Bon Pasteur ("Good Shepherd") in Nha Trang (1968–70) and the Pontifical College of St. Pius X in Da-Lat (1970-1977).

Due to the political events in his homeland, he had to return to his family and 14 years of hard work, but he was also active as an intern in the parish of Phan Tang, Ninh Thuận.

Priesthood

On 20 December 1992 he was ordained a priest consecrated the Diocese of Nha Trang incardinated. He then spent three years in the parish of Phuoc Thien (1992-1995).

From 1995 to 2003, he was sent to study French at the Catholic Institute of Paris, and graduated with a doctorate in philosophy. In November 2003 he returned to his home diocese in Vietnam and taught as a professor at the Seminary of Nha Trang.

On 12 June 2004 Pope John Paul II appointed him as the new bishop of Thanh Hóa.

On 26 October 2016 Pope Francis appointed him as the new Archbishop of Huế. [3]

gollark: It seems like the problem is some somewhat broken optimization, where `pcall` somehow directly executes the real `getfenv`, ignorant of environments, if you have a function which only (or something like that?) calls a builtin. Or possibly not only builtins.
gollark: I have a fix, but it would be mildly bad for `pcall` performance so I don't want to implement it...
gollark: That sounds hilariously inefficient and probably wouldn't fix it.
gollark: How can I even patch this‽
gollark: But if I don't, it does that?!
