Promoting the role of the press in social life

On June 21, 1925, the first issue of Thanh Nien Newspaper founded by President Ho Chi Minh was published, marking the formation and development of Vietnam's revolutionary press. During that 100-year journey, along with the whole country, Long An journalists have constantly cultivated and improved their political qualities, professional ethics, and expertise to perform their duties well, meeting the needs of audiences, listeners, and readers for regular information updates.

Contribute to policy communication

The press is the mouthpiece of the Party, the State, socio -political organizations, the official means of information, and the "bridge" between the Party, the State and the People.

The press cannot stand aside in the task of bringing policies and guidelines into the thinking and daily life of every citizen.

Journalists must be people who understand and grasp the Party's policies to be able to do a good job of policy communication.

A prominent advantage of the press is that there are many types: paper newspapers, electronic newspapers, radio, television. This helps to disseminate policies and guidelines to the masses in many different forms.

In particular, the rapid development of electronic newspapers and digital platforms makes the dissemination of information faster, more timely, and more widespread... With its advantages, the press has propagated and disseminated important policies and laws directly related to people's lives, quickly and promptly updated new legal documents, amended and supplemented legal documents to all classes of people.

An important thing for the press to contribute to the successful implementation of policy communication tasks is that reporters and journalists must be people who understand and grasp policies in order to propagate correctly.

According to reporter Huynh Phong ( Long An Newspaper and Radio and Television Station), in order to effectively disseminate policies and laws, in addition to understanding correctly, journalists must also have a way to provide easy-to-understand and accurate information; at the same time, organize interviews with experts or leaders of relevant departments and branches to clearly explain issues that people are still wondering about or unclear about.

“In addition, recording people’s opinions and reporting on practices will help reflect the impact of policies on community life. These activities not only improve people’s understanding but also strengthen the connection between the government and the community,” said reporter Huynh Phong.

Many programs have been implemented to spread good deeds in daily life.

In addition to effectively propagating the Party's policies, bringing new policies into life, raising people's awareness of living and working according to the law, the press is also a means and a sharp weapon to promote the image of a Long An with great development potential with open investment policies and a favorable environment to the business community.

“When it comes to the economy , it is not just about numbers but also about beautiful images of developed and modern infrastructure and the support of provincial leaders. Therefore, through my journalistic works, I focus on bringing those factors to the audience, including investors who want to find opportunities in Long An” - journalist Que Quyen (Long An Newspaper and Radio and Television) shared.

Spread beautiful values

Besides its role as a “bridge” between the Party, the State and the People, the press also discovers and honors good people and good deeds in social life. From there, it spreads good values ​​and creates positive energy in the community.

Through the pen of a journalist, beautiful stories in everyday life are recreated through each article or come to the audience in an extremely vivid way through each frame. There is no need for great deeds, as long as they are done from the heart, they will be spread. In addition to the assigned field of propaganda, most reporters and journalists also sympathize with the beauty they encounter during their work, then there will be good articles, gentle TV programs, carrying many beautiful and humane values.

Reporter Thanh Dung (Long An Newspaper and Radio and Television Station) said: "In addition to performing propaganda tasks assigned by the Editorial Board, I also make television reports about good people, good deeds, people who are passionate about making handmade products,...

Through such reports, I want to contribute to spreading beauty and bringing positive energy to audiences and readers. I myself also feel more energetic to do my job."

The press has "built a bridge" of charity for philanthropists to reach the right situation in society that needs help.

Talking about the unforgettable spread of beauty in the program Overcoming Danger on LA34 TV channel, Ms. Nguyen Van Thi Viet Hanh - Standing Member of the Provincial Red Cross Society, in charge of social work, who directly coordinated with the crew of Long An Radio and Television Station (now Long An Radio and Television Newspaper) from the first days of this program's broadcast was very impressed with the spread of humanistic values ​​from this program.

“Many people who know that I am campaigning for the characters of the program Overcoming Danger are ready immediately, maybe contributing money, rice, clothes,... Supporters include business owners, small traders, retired uncles and aunts, even lottery ticket sellers who make a living but still set aside money to help others. When this money reaches the characters, they are very happy and touched. Thanks to that, they can be treated and continue to live,” Ms. Hanh informed.

Throughout a century of formation and development, the Vietnamese revolutionary press has always held an important position and role. Therefore, regardless of the era or working conditions, the team of journalists always maintains a “bright mind, pure heart, sharp pen”, strongly promoting their role in contributing to socio-economic development, honoring beautiful values ​​in life./.
