Keep the fire of the profession alive
A warm, gentle voice is the first impression many people have when meeting journalist Huynh Thi Thuy Phuong (pen name Que Lam), but only when working together do they realize that this is a passionate, individualistic female journalist.
For her, every trip is an experience, every meeting is a story that needs to be told with sincerity.
Journalist Thuy Phuong always chooses listening and sharing as the "key" to her journalistic works.
Gradually maturing from field trips, from remote border areas to remote communes, Ms. Thuy Phuong chose for herself a way of doing journalism that bears her personal mark: Close, full of emotions. Not afraid of difficulties, not afraid of hardships, for her, journalism is a journey of experiences, where each trip is an opportunity to learn more about people, about life and about herself.
I still remember the first time I went on a business trip with her, it was a trip to the border area. We got lost in a place with no phone signal, no navigation,... but she still said calmly: "Getting lost at the border is normal, just ask the locals, they will show you right away."
That calmness and flexibility are the valuable assets of an experienced journalist who always puts her trust in people and the stories she pursues. That is also the valuable material that creates her emotional articles later on.
As an emotional person, her journalistic works always have softness and depth. In the field of culture and society , she left many articles rich in humanity, showing her listening and sharing with each fate and each situation.
No matter how far the distance, she did not hesitate to go to the place, meet the characters, observe carefully before writing. Her diligence and seriousness in journalism helped her win many professional awards, including the Encouragement Prize of the 3rd National Press Award on the National Assembly and People's Council (Dien Hong Award) with the series of articles Voters' Advice - People's Forum.
In addition to writing for newspapers, Thuy Phuong is also an inspiring reader in podcasts of Long An Newspaper and Radio and Television Station. From the column Land Names, Street Names to Short Stories - Essays, she constantly innovates and renews the way she conveys information to reach the modern public.
After 12 years of working in journalism, she still maintains her love for her job. Because the job gives her pride and she responds with tireless dedication. "I understand that my job is truly meaningful when it is associated with trips and experiences that leave behind unforgettable happy and sad memories in each place" - she shared.
For Ms. Thuy Phuong, sometimes it is complete joy, sometimes it is lingering sadness, but each article is a step for her to continue going further on her career journey.
She also always spreads positive spirit to her colleagues, especially young reporters. With her gentle guidance and kind encouragement, Thuy Phuong is not only a lovable colleague but also an approachable older sister.
Writer of simple things
If journalist Thuy Phuong is an emotional writer, reporter Le Duc - Long An Newspaper and Radio and Television Station, makes his colleagues admire him for his professional, versatile and decisive working style in the field of current affairs and politics.
He uses journalism to tell life stories with sincerity, sharpness and responsibility. Topics that seem dry through his perspective become close, real and emotional.
In 2023, his series of articles "Peaceful people, keep the border land" won the first prize in the Provincial Press Award for print media. Not simply reflecting the security situation on the border , the series of articles showed a harmonious combination of field work and a responsible journalistic perspective.
Through that, he truly conveyed the efforts and dedication of the border protection force and local authorities in maintaining sovereignty and taking care of the lives of people in the border areas of the Fatherland.
Reporter Le Duc (holding camera) recorded real moments during a business trip.
For reporter Le Duc, a good journalistic work must not only be correct and complete, but also have depth and emotion.
He shared: "As a journalist, you cannot be indifferent, apathetic,... you must know how to observe and feel with all your heart, mind and objectivity."
Years of working have helped him develop a cautious, thorough, yet flexible working style. He often goes to the place, meets the characters, talks many times, listens with respect, so that every detail, every word in the article is imbued with humanity and kindness.
Not only is he solid in his profession, reporter Le Duc is also highly regarded by his colleagues for his willingness to learn and his mutual support at work. He is always aware of the social responsibility of journalism, considering connecting people with the government through each article an important part of his profession.
“Articles from the “breath” of life will help state management agencies make correct policies, reflecting the legitimate wishes and aspirations of the people,” he confided.
Especially in the legal field - readers, articles recommending handling of shortcomings, policy suggestions or reflecting people's concerns are expressed by him in an honest and open-minded writing style.
Many cases, after being reported by newspapers and radio stations, have received active intervention from authorities, thereby strengthening public trust in the provincial press.
Although their working styles are different, journalist Thuy Phuong and reporter Le Duc have one thing in common: pride in their journalism profession and a love for the profession that never fades.
They are still going - writing - listening and telling life stories every day with words, with images, with all their passion and responsibility. In the 100-year flow of Vietnamese Revolutionary Journalism, they are not only the ones who deliver news but also the ones who inspire, continuing the source of kindness, objectivity and humanity, which make up the core values of journalism today./.
