Answer

Cần Lao was a paramilitary organization noted for maintaining the Ngô family's grip on power during the 1950s. It was founded in 1954 by Ngô Đình Diệm, a Catholic nationalist who had become president of South Vietnam in 1955. The organization was originally designed to provide security for Diệm and his family, but it soon became a powerful political force in its own right.
