The information page will provide valuable reference documents about General Secretary Nguyen Van Linh on the digital platform as well as create a spillover effect of the thought of “Things to be done now” in the current period.

Comrade Nguyen Van Linh, General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Vietnam for the 1986-1991 tenure, paved the way and made great contributions to the country's Doi Moi (renewal) cause with the spirit of innovation and resoluteness against negativity. The life and career of late Party leader Nguyen Van Linh has left many valuable lessons for the current cause of national construction and development.

Thirty-one articles by comrade Nguyen Van Linh under the pseudonym N.V.L in the column themed titled “Things to be done now” in Nhan Dan Newspaper (with the first published on May 25, 1987 and the last September 28, 1990) severely criticised negative actions in society, including those in the management and leadership apparatus, which shocked public opinion in the early Doi Moi period. His articles have created momentum for strong changes in society towards democratisation, encouraging the press to participate more actively and strongly on the anti-negative front.

Nhan Dan Newspaper expects that the information page on Party General Secretary Nguyen Van Linh will become a valuable reference on digital platform for officials, Party members, people, experts and international friends to learn about the late Party leader.

Right following the launching ceremony, a seminar themed “Party General Secretary Nguyen Van Linh and Things to be done now” will also be held, aiming to analyse and evaluate the spirit of innovation and creativity and the resoluteness against negative phenomena while spotlighting the combativeness of his articles published on Nhan Dan Newspaper and their importance for the cause of national construction and development and Party building.
