Award-winning authors interact at the award ceremony

Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Toan, Editor -in-Chief of Thanh Nien Newspaper, commented that the participating authors are diverse in age, profession and perspective, but have in common their feelings and love for the electricity industry and electricians.

They have witnessed the change, development and acceleration of the electricity industry from the time of "planting" electric poles, pulling electric wires, going to homes to record electricity meters by hand... to the strong digitalization as it is today. They have also witnessed how electricity has changed the lives of people on remote islands, from desolate countrysides to prosperous lands and famous tourist destinations.

Contest results: 1 first prize went to author Truong Tien Du, with the work "My Village Has Electricity"; 2 second prizes went to authors Nguyen Tran Thanh Truc and Le Thanh Nhan; 3 third prizes went to authors Do Thi Thanh Tuyen, Vu Ngoc Uyen, Cao Xuan Luong and 10 consolation prizes.
