With the theme of "Vietnamese Press - Pioneering, Innovation for the Revolutionary Cause of the Party and the People", the three-day event is a highlight of the professionalism and modernity of the Vietnamese press.

Deputy Chairman of the Vietnam Journalists’ Association (VJA) Nguyen Duc Loi, who is also head of the festival’s organising board, said it brought together representatives from central and local press agencies nationwide, with 120 booths displaying outstanding publications covering all aspects of economic, political, cultural, social, defence, security, and foreign affairs.

Nguyen Trong Nghia, head of the Party Central Committee's Commission for Information and Education, urged press agencies to focus on popularising the implementation of the socio-economic development tasks, spreading good and compassionate values in society, and bringing Party, State, and Government guidelines, policies and laws into life, thus meeting the expectations of all people.

He also asked them to strengthen the work of building a clean and strong Party, constantly fostering and improving political bravery, revolutionary ethics, and professional expertise for journalists.
