Abstract
Han Feizi was a knowledgeable and patriotic nobleman born in 280 BC and died in 233 BC, during the sixth year of Han Wang An and the fourteenth year of Qin Shi Huang. He offered many solutions to the King of Korea to save the country from destruction and improve its strength, but corrupt officials prevented his methods from being implemented. Han Fei was frustrated with the King of Korea's lack of concern for the country, failure to update laws according to changing times, and reliance on "Phap" and "Thuat" to achieve national prosperity and strength. The King of Korea did not choose competent and useful sages in the fields of "Phap" and "Thuat". Instead, he used incompetent and harmful individuals who did not benefit the country. Han Feizi, despite his loyalty and integrity, was not utilized and was left with feelings of regret, and sadness. The author of this article focuses solely on researching and clarifying the content of Han Fei’s ideology on the method of using people in water governance. This analysis aims to provide insight into the meaning of "the art of using people" and ultimately improve judicial activities in Vietnam today.
