Reporter: Dear comrade, looking back at 95 years of construction and growth, what outstanding contributions has the Party's Propaganda sector made to the nation's revolutionary cause?

Comrade Tran Manh Loi, Head of the Provincial Party Committee's Propaganda and Mass Mobilization Department: It can be said that the Propaganda sector has accompanied the Party since its early days. Since 1930, our Party has clearly identified the key role of propaganda, education , and ideological orientation - that clearly demonstrates the Party's strategic vision.
Over the past 95 years, the Propaganda sector has made an important contribution to the cause of fighting for national independence, building and defending the Fatherland. It is a continuous process of propagating and educating Marxism-Leninism and Ho Chi Minh Thought; raising political awareness, strengthening people's trust in the Party's leadership; fighting against false and hostile arguments; contributing to building a clean and strong political system.
In important historical periods, propaganda work has always been close to reality, flexible and creative. Especially in the current period - when the renovation and international integration are taking place extensively - the guiding role of propaganda work has become clearer and more urgent.

Reporter: Dear comrade, after merging into the Provincial Party Committee's Propaganda and Mass Mobilization Department, what key orientations has the Department had to promote the tradition of solidarity, create unity and consensus among cadres, party members and people, contributing to improving the effectiveness of propaganda and mass mobilization work in the new period?
Comrade Tran Manh Loi, Head of the Provincial Party Committee's Propaganda and Mass Mobilization Department: Tuyen Quang and Ha Giang have many similarities in history, culture, customs and practices, and a long-standing tradition of solidarity. The two provinces have been together for 15 years, and many Tuyen Quang cadres have worked and are deeply attached to Ha Giang, creating a close and friendly relationship.
The merger is not only a requirement for streamlining the organizational apparatus but also an opportunity to maximize the potential of the two provinces, creating new strength in propaganda and political and ideological education. This is an important step to unify the work of advising and assisting the provincial Party Committee in the field of propaganda and mass mobilization, contributing to improving the quality of Party building work.
All cadres, party members, and civil servants of the Propaganda and Mass Mobilization Department of Tuyen Quang Provincial Party Committee continue to promote the tradition of solidarity, innovation, and creativity, and excellently complete the assigned tasks. The leaders of the Department proactively do a good job of political and ideological education for cadres, party members, and people to create consensus and unity to implement the Party's policies and resolutions; successfully implement the political, ideological, cultural goals and propaganda and mass mobilization work of the province in the new period.
Reporter: Tuyen Quang is a land with a special position in the history of the Vietnamese revolution - the cradle of the national revolution. How do you evaluate the role of the province's Propaganda Department in maintaining the "ideological battlefield" at the source of the revolution?
Comrade Tran Manh Loi, Head of the Provincial Party Committee's Propaganda and Mass Mobilization Department: Tuyen Quang is the "Capital of the liberated zone", the "Capital of the resistance war" of the whole country - a place where profound revolutionary values converge, crystallize and spread. This is also the place where President Ho Chi Minh and the Party Central Committee chose to place the headquarters to lead the revolution during the difficult years. In particular, in Thia village, Tan Trao commune - the Central Propaganda and Mass Mobilization Department, now the Central Propaganda and Mass Mobilization Department, set up its headquarters during the difficult years of the resistance war against the French colonialists.
From that special heritage, the Propaganda Department of Tuyen Quang province is always aware of its sacred responsibility in preserving and promoting the tradition of "revolutionary source", contributing to protecting the Party's ideological foundation in the new period. Propaganda forces in the area constantly innovate the content and methods of operation; always being the pioneer force in propagating the Party's major guidelines and policies, the State's laws; actively participating in political theory education, orienting public opinion, fighting against false information, making an important contribution to maintaining political and social stability from the grassroots.
Reporter: Organizing Party Congresses at all levels in the context of many changes in the organizational apparatus and administrative boundaries requires ideological work to be one step ahead. What solutions has the Propaganda Department taken to proactively orient public opinion and maintain political stability at the grassroots level?
Comrade Tran Manh Loi, Head of the Provincial Party Committee's Propaganda and Mass Mobilization Department: The organization of Party Congresses at all levels for the 2025-2030 term takes place in the context of many changes in administrative boundaries and organizational apparatus, posing very high requirements for ideological work. We clearly identify: Propaganda work must go one step ahead, play a role in orienting awareness and creating consensus throughout society.
With its assigned functions and tasks, the Provincial Party Committee's Propaganda and Mass Mobilization Commission promptly advised the Party Committee to issue a propaganda plan for Party Congresses at all levels towards the Provincial Party Congress for the 2025-2030 term and the 14th National Party Congress; unified and promptly provided information on the policy of arranging administrative units and organizing the new apparatus.
At the same time, propagate and seriously implement Directive No. 45-CT/TW dated April 14, 2025 of the Politburo on Party Congresses at all levels towards the 14th National Congress of the Party; Plan No. 11-KH/TU dated July 17, 2025 of the Provincial Party Executive Committee (term XVII) on directing Party Congresses at all levels according to Directive No. 45-CT/TW dated April 14, 2025 of the Politburo, the results achieved in Party building, socio-economic development (SE), ensuring security and national defense in the 2020-2025 term. The goal is to create consensus, strengthen trust, and ensure political and social stability from the grassroots.

The sector also strengthens direction and promotes the role of reporters, propagandists, and social opinion collaborators to promptly grasp the situation, especially in areas and fields where there is still a potential for anxiety and worry. All ideological developments among cadres, party members, and people are closely monitored, thereby proactively advising on handling, preventing the formation of hot spots or false and distorted information.
All these efforts are aimed at the goal of ensuring ideological stability and unity of will and action throughout the Party and society - so that each congress is not only an important political event, but also a driving force to arouse aspirations for development and determination to innovate in the new period.
Reporter: In the new situation, the Propaganda sector is facing many challenges. So, in your opinion, what innovations does the Propaganda sector need to effectively adapt to the current context?
Comrade Tran Manh Loi, Head of the Provincial Party Committee's Propaganda and Mass Mobilization Department: Innovation is not only a requirement, but also a mandatory condition for propaganda work to adapt to the new context, especially in a period of strong transformation in both organizational structure, administrative boundaries and information and communication environment. In that spirit, we have identified a number of key orientations as follows:
Firstly, propaganda work must be strongly oriented towards the grassroots, close to the people, and closely follow reality. Propaganda cannot only operate on paper, documents or in the hall, but must be "present" where life is taking place, especially where there are potential ideological and social psychological problems. Only when close to the people and understanding the people can we grasp the subtle developments in public opinion, thereby having timely and correct solutions.
Second, it is necessary to promote the application of digital technology and artificial intelligence (AI) to improve the effectiveness of information management, forecasting and orienting public opinion. This is an inevitable trend, and at the same time, a “soft weapon” that helps propaganda work not to be passive, but to be able to be one step ahead, proactively handling complex issues in cyberspace.
Third, we must focus on building a team of propaganda officers with courage, intelligence and comprehensive skills. Today's propaganda officers not only need to be politically and ideologically strong, but also must be proficient in communication skills, have a firm grasp of technology, understand social psychology and have the ability to positively influence public opinion through many methods and familiar, modern languages.
Fourth, is to strengthen close and effective coordination with sectors and levels, especially the Fatherland Front, socio-political organizations and the press and media system. This is the core force, helping the Propaganda sector expand information channels, collect multi-dimensional opinions, aspirations and public opinions from the grassroots to proactively advise the Party Committee to lead, direct and handle problems early, from the root.
We believe that if we do these solutions well, propaganda work will continue to maintain its role as an ideological "guide", contributing to creating high unity within the Party and consensus in society, for the common development goals of the province.
Reporter: Thank you very much for your heartfelt and profound sharing. I wish the province's Propaganda Department to continue to promote its tradition, strongly innovate and excellently complete its assigned tasks.

Ideological foundation at the grassroots
 |
The consensus of cadres, party members and people is very important in organizing the implementation of local socio-economic development tasks. Therefore, the propaganda work of the Party's guidelines and policies and the State's laws is always focused on by Duong Hong commune, especially the propaganda of Party Congresses at all levels, the construction of two-level local governments; mobilizing people to develop the economy, build new rural areas, eliminate bad customs, and build a civilized lifestyle.
To do so, the propaganda team at the grassroots level must have expertise, propaganda skills, enthusiasm and be devoted to the people. When ideology is unified, actions will be synchronized; when ideals are clear, trust among cadres, party members and people will be multiplied. That is the root of building the ideological foundation of the Party at the grassroots level. At the Duong Hong Commune Party Committee, we will implement solutions to promote the role of propaganda work, maintain the ideological front to build a clean and strong Party in all aspects.

Speak accurately, do well and be close to the people
 |
In doing propaganda work at the grassroots level, we always adhere to the motto of “saying the right thing, doing the right thing, and being close to the people”. To be right is to say exactly what the people need, to clearly state what the people do not understand, to make propaganda concise, easy to remember, easy to do, not dogmatic or formulaic. To be complete is that cadres must be exemplary in action, turning words into concrete actions to build trust. To be close to the people, to know how to listen, share, and accompany the people in every task.
To do that well, each grassroots propaganda officer needs to constantly learn, innovate propaganda methods, apply information technology, increase dialogue, and grasp the ideological situation at the grassroots level. When officers have capacity, skills and courage, the Party's ideology will be conveyed coherently, and resolutions will enter life in a vivid and effective way.

Bridge between the Party and the People

Thuong Nong is a newly merged highland commune, bordering Cao Bang and Thai Nguyen provinces, with great potential for cultural and tourism development, especially the Tay ethnic identity with ancient stilt houses in Dong Da village. However, to turn the potential into reality, ideological guidance is needed - that is the role of the Propaganda Department.
In recent times, propaganda work has done a good job of "going ahead and paving the way", promptly and widely propagating policies and guidelines, especially the significance of the new rural construction program to the people in the village.
Thanks to good ideological work, people in many villages, including Dong Da, have voluntarily donated land to open roads, contributed labor and money to build infrastructure and rural landscapes. From local practice, he expects propaganda work to continue to play a leading role, strengthen trust, and arouse self-awareness among people, which is also an important foundation for sustainable development.

Self-study to improve work efficiency
 |
In my opinion, the core for those doing propaganda work is to grasp the Party's viewpoints and guidelines, the specific goals and targets for each term. At the same time, it is necessary to closely follow the grassroots, understand the thoughts and aspirations of the people. From there, propaganda will be both in line with the Party's direction and in line with the people's legitimate wishes, helping to create consensus and enhance trust in society.
During my work, I always focus on self-study and self-training to improve my qualifications, regularly innovate the content and form of propaganda, and promptly update new policies and guidelines. In addition, closely monitoring public opinion also helps me proactively adjust methods and choose appropriate approaches for each target group, contributing to strengthening unity within the Party and consensus among the people.
