Remembering history touches the hearts of young people

NDO - Touching the hearts of young people, the special supplement commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Liberation of the South and National Reunification Day (April 30, 1975 - April 30, 2025) published for free by Nhan Dan Newspaper has quickly spread widely, creating a "fever" on social networks when many young people hunted to own it. The number of 60,000 supplements given away in the southern region was quickly sold out after two peak days of giving away before the official parade and march in Ho Chi Minh City.

On the morning of April 29, the Representative Office of Nhan Dan Newspaper in Dong Nai opened very early to give away the supplement to young readers who came here before their daily study and work hours.

Nguyen Minh Nhat, a 10th grade student at Tam Hiep Secondary School in Bien Hoa City, rode his electric bike to wait first so he could return to school on time. Looking at the supplement with admiration, Minh Nhat said that he heard that this supplement was rare in Ho Chi Minh City due to the large number of people searching for it. When he learned that it was available in Dong Nai, he quickly came to get it as a permanent souvenir, "because such a special supplement has only appeared once every 50 years."

Traveling more than 20km to receive the supplement, soldier Ha Thi Thanh Diem, Artillery Brigade 96, stationed in An Phuoc commune, Long Thanh district, said: "My husband and I are both in the army, so I brought it home to open for my children to see."

Excitedly holding the wonderful "gift", Ms. Le Van Anh, Tan Phong ward, Bien Hoa city, shared: "In general, young people often read online newspapers, normally they rarely read paper newspapers, but when we learned about this supplement, we felt that paper newspapers are something that preserves memories and goes with us through the years. Bringing them home and spreading them out on the table, parents, the elderly, and children can also read them, the whole family can watch them. I really regret that I didn't have time to own the Panorama Dien Bien Phu painting of Nhan Dan Newspaper before, so this time I was quicker, determined not to miss the opportunity."

Each individual was personally given a copy of the supplement by a representative of the People's Newspaper's representative office in Dong Nai. However, Le Hoang Phuc, a resident of Thanh Binh ward, begged: "Can I have a few more copies to display at the coffee shop to serve young people checking in on the spot?"

The demand for the supplement is very high, but at this address, only 3,000 copies are allocated, directly delivered to readers. By mid-morning on April 29, all of this supplement had sold out and the Representative Office of Nhan Dan Newspaper in Dong Nai issued a notice to stop giving away.

In recent days, many clips and review posts about the special supplement celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Liberation of the South and National Reunification have become a popular trend on social networks. Most comments say that the publication, which includes 8 pages of outstanding information, recreates part of the Ho Chi Minh Campaign with the milestone of capturing the Independence Palace, along with the application of augmented reality (AR) technology, allowing readers to interact directly with the content via smartphones... is a great publication, with beautiful, impressive images, even having a "cinematic" appearance.

The heroic and interesting historical information is not only conveyed in a modern and attractive way, but also blends with the heartbeat of young people, multiplying the aspiration to strive, contribute and preserve and build the Fatherland, so that the country can be strong and enter a new era.

The long lines of people patiently waiting in line to receive the supplement at the Nhan Dan Newspaper Office in Hanoi, the Nhan Dan Newspaper Representative Office in the southern region in Ho Chi Minh City, or other localities across the country are proof that the publication contains profound messages and a new form that has touched the hearts of young people across the country, creating excitement and enthusiasm.

Reminiscing and telling historical stories in a different direction, keeping up with the new journalism trends of Nhan Dan Newspaper, starting from the Panorama supplement commemorating the 70th anniversary of Dien Bien Phu Victory a year ago, has become a bridge connecting the patriotic hearts of generations of Vietnamese people today.

Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Tuan, Thong Nhat Ward, Bien Hoa City, said: “I find the information on the 8 pages very useful, easy to remember and the QR code scanning experience with many vivid images and sounds. I am really excited to receive this special supplement of Nhan Dan Newspaper.

Born in 1975, the event of celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Liberation of the South and National Reunification Day this year is even more meaningful. I am grateful to the generations of fathers and brothers who fought bravely and sacrificed for the independence and freedom of the Fatherland and realize that I am living in peace today and must do something more to contribute to my homeland and country."

The supplement created attention and phenomenon among young people, multiplied the social public opinion effect beyond expectations, and delighted hundreds of cadres, reporters, and technicians who worked hard for months to meticulously create and launch the most perfect "brainchild" possible, with a total circulation of up to 200,000 copies sent to the domestic public and international friends.

According to Editor-in-Chief of Nhan Dan Newspaper Le Quoc Minh, this media campaign not only aims to honor historical achievements but also demonstrates the responsibility of revolutionary journalism in fostering patriotism and national pride for present and future generations. One of the important goals in recent projects of Nhan Dan Newspaper is to use journalism and technology to bring historical lessons to young people, especially students, including elementary school children.

Teachers and students in Dong Nai are excited to experience the special supplement of Nhan Dan Newspaper.

And it is a joy to see the supplement appearing in all provinces and cities, in the hands of young people, hanging in offices and classrooms, used by teachers and students as a visual teaching aid. They really experience the content. With each additional printing, we edit the details that are not standard or beautiful. Today, another 200,000 copies have reached everyone, bringing the total number of printed copies to date to a record half a million.

The initial success in the effort to innovate the propaganda style, contribute to depicting history, and strongly spread patriotism is also the professional happiness of the people working at Nhan Dan Newspaper. The enthusiastic response of readers nationwide has become a spiritual motivation urging the collective team of Nhan Dan Newspaper to constantly explore, create, and make breakthrough improvements to have more complete press "products", practically celebrating the great events and holidays of the nation in the coming time.
