His father, Ngo Dinh Kha, was by nationality a Mandarin, and by office the Minister of Rites and Grand Chamberlain to Emperor Thanh Thai who had reigned from 1889 to 1907.
Tragedy was already being served up to the Ngo brothers by the communists in that their oldest brother, Ngo Dinh Khoi, had been buried alive along with his son by the communists.
Ngo Dinh Nhu (Tran Le Xuan) took an extremely dim view of what those Buddhists were doing, and in an attempt to discourage such behavior she responded to it by joking about how they were using imported gasoline to make barbecues of themselves.

Following the 11 November 1960 coup attempt, Khoi assumed command of the demoralized guard, and proved highly capable in the improvement of the morale and the efficiency of the unit by intensive training, including patrol action against the Viet Cong near Saigon.
His assets include the ability to divide his opposition, considerable political acumen, support of his brother Ngo Dinh Can (a case of preserving Can's own position) and a few persons who depend upon Nhu for their own positions or who genuinely feel Nhu is necessary for the stability of the country.
Dinh could be expected to give support to Nhu if he thought that the latter had a good chance of success.

The onus of colonialism was among the heavy burdens which Ngo Dinh Diem had to shoulder from the outset.
On 9 May 1955, the Joint Chiefs of Staff judged that "the government of Prime Minister Ngo Dinh Diem shows the greatest promise of achieving the internal stability essential for the future security of Vietnam." Five months later, on 11 October, 1955, the National Intelligence Estimate was revised.
Ngo Dinh Nhu, who admitted that the Can Lao closely resembled the communists in organization and technique, used it to stifle all political sentiment competitive or opposed to Ngo Dinh Diem.

To some, Ngo Dinh Can seemed to be the ablest of the ill-fated Ngo brothers.
Can in vain advised his brothers, President Diem and Ngo Dinh Nhu, to ease the measures against the Buddhists—not out of idealism but to avoid rocking the boat.
Asked to substantiate his denials, he snapped: "Who would give evidence for me in the situation I am in?" It took a nine-man tribunal 90 minutes to condemn him to death by firing squad or the guillotine, which, introduced by the French, is still occasionally used in South Viet Nam.

In the year in which Premier-President Ngo Dinh Diem has presided over the precarious young state of South Viet Nam, there has never been far from his mind the need to set one such wandering soul at rest.
For nine years after Khoi's murder, the village of Co Bi remained under Communist control, making it impossible for members of the Roman Catholic Ngo family to find their relative's body.
