Congratulating the 79th anniversary of National Day (September 2) and the founding anniversary - an important milestone of the Ministry of Information and Communications, VNA, Vietnam Television, and Voice of Vietnam, Deputy Prime Minister Tran Hong Ha, on behalf of the Government and the Prime Minister praised the achievements and important contributions of the four agencies, as well as journalists nationwide, to the cause of national construction and development.

The Deputy Prime Minister affirmed that the results achieved have contributed to affirming Vietnam's role in the world. In particular, the press agencies have demonstrated flexibility, agility, the ability to analyse, forecast, and interpret, and actively participated in policy planning and development. Journalistic works are presented richly and diversely in many forms.

In the coming time, press agencies should continue to disseminate information and communication towards the 14th National Party Congress, as well as the work of perfecting the political system at the grassroots level to operate effectively and efficiently.

President of the Vietnam Journalists Association Le Quoc Minh continued to affirm the path to building a modern-humane-professional press, in which modern technologies are increasingly applied more and more effectively to journalism; gradually forming and clarifying the trend of explanatory journalism and solution journalism, thereby contributing to orienting ideology, creating a broad social consensus, promoting the strong implementation of major policies of the Party and State.

Noting the content that the press needs to pay attention to in the coming time, Deputy Head of the PCC Commission for Communication and Education Phan Xuan Thuy affirmed that the Vietnamese revolutionary press always maintains its pioneering role on the ideological front of our Party and State, always maintaining its position as the official, mainstream, and accurate information provider serving the Party, State, and people.
