The national press awards of the National Assembly and the People’s Council (Dien Hong Awards) aim to honour journalistic works on the activities of the National Assembly and People's Councils. It is jointly organised by the NA Office, in coordination with the Party Central Committee’s Commission for Communication and Education, the Ministry of Information and Communications, the Vietnam Journalists’ Association, and Vietnam Television.

According to the organisers, the third Dien Hong Awards featured many meticulous and long-term works and many others utilising multimedia and graphics. They reflected the professionalism of modern journalism as well as the serious and responsible spirit of journalists and reporters.
This year’s awards season saw the active participation of both central and local media agencies. Notably, the number of local media outlets actively participating in the awards has increased compared to the previous season. The quality of works narrowed the gap between central and local outlets in the fields of television, digital media, and print newspapers, making the distinction clearer.
This reflects the media’s interest, as well as the public's attention, in the activities of the National Assembly and People's Councils.
