It is known that 70 years ago, on October 10, 1954, along with the victorious army marching to liberate the Capital, there were cars with loudspeakers running on the streets, announcing 8 policies of the Government for the newly liberated areas, along with announcements of the City Military Committee. These were the first radio activities of Hanoi City.
Four days after the liberation of the capital, a fixed radio station installed at the Thuy Ta Information and Exhibition House broadcast the first program, with the introduction “This is a broadcast of the Hanoi Propaganda Department”. October 14, 1954, was taken as the founding date of Hanoi Radio and Television Station. Since then, the voice of Hanoi has become an indispensable part of the capital.
During the war, the voice of Hanoi "inspired" the army and people of the capital. "Attention, compatriots! The American invaders are losing badly. They are plotting to attack Hanoi like crazy. The City People's Air Defense Council has ordered that when the alarm siren sounds, everyone needs to calmly go into the shelter...". After the alarm siren and the loud battle order, there were calm and firm reminders from the Hanoi Radio announcer, encouraging the spirit of the army and people of the capital. The voice transmitted through the loudspeaker system throughout the city has become a heroic memory, demonstrating the indomitable will of the army and people of the capital during 12 days and nights, creating the victory of "Dien Bien Phu in the air".
After the war, Hanoi Radio and Television Station continued its mission as the mouthpiece of the Party Committee and the City Government, and as a forum for the people of the Capital. During 70 years of construction and growth, closely associated with the historical and developmental stages of the Capital and the country, Hanoi Radio and Television Station has always affirmed its important position among the City's press agencies. The Station has performed well its political tasks, reflecting and propagating the policies of the Party, the State, the Government, and the City, and updating news on media infrastructures. Hanoi Radio Station also provides timely information in many areas of life. Cultural and entertainment contents imbued with Hanoi's identity contribute to enriching the spiritual and cultural life of the people of the Capital.
In particular, Hanoi Radio and Television Station has successfully organized many live television programs and television bridges, reflecting important political, cultural and social events. Most recently, the "Cultural Festival for Peace" to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the Liberation of the Capital (October 10, 1954 - October 10, 2024); the 25th anniversary of Hanoi being honored by UNESCO as a "City for Peace" (July 16, 1999 - July 16, 2024) took place on October 6, 2024. Hanoi Radio and Television Station organized live television on media infrastructure in an elaborate, methodical and lively manner. This activity of the Station was commended by the City's leaders and praised by the people of the Capital.
Mr. Nguyen Kim Khiem, General Director and Editor-in-Chief of Hanoi Radio and Television Station, said: “In the face of the strong change in domestic and international media trends, Hanoi Radio and Television Station is implementing a development strategy to become a strong media complex, connecting the Station with the public in a modern digital content supply chain, contributing to the gradual formation of Hanoi's content ecosystem, while still affirming the unique identity of the Capital Radio and Television Station”.
Accordingly, along with the innovation of television, Hanoi Radio and Television Station has innovated 2 radio channels, linking the content and form of each channel with the characteristics of the capital and the lives of Hanoians. In particular, FM90 Channel is defined as the specialized channel "Hanoi News and Traffic". FM96 Channel is identified as the "News and Music" channel of the capital.
Hanoi Radio also launched the HanoiOn multimedia content application in July 2024. This is a content distribution platform of the digital press ecosystem, part of the strategy to complete Hanoi's modern multimedia communication complex.
Also in 2024, Hanoi Radio and Television Station also restarted the production of television dramas with the long-running film project "For the love of Hanoi" which was broadcast on the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the Liberation of the Capital.
With the attention of the Central and the City, the drastic innovation of the leadership team, and the collective efforts, Hanoi Radio has made clear breakthroughs. Hanoi Radio's news is faster and richer; many innovative programs create new vitality; digital platforms develop strongly.
