Hanoi (VNA) – From now to 2025, the northern province of Bac Giang will press on with developing human resources to serve digital transformation, said Vice Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Mai Son.
This year, he said, the provincial Department of Information and Communications will enhance efforts to carry on training human resources for digital transformation in Bac Giang towards 2030.
Training courses on digital transformation, including information safety, and leadership skills will be held for leaders of state agencies from the provincial to communal levels. Advanced refresher courses on new technologies, digital transformation, information system building, and information safety will also be organised for information technology personnel of state agencies.
Bac Giang will step up developing cyber-security staff to monitor, prevent, and deal with cyber safety and security-related incidents and hi-tech crimes.
It will also make annual plans to send personnel to training and refresher courses as instructed by the Ministry of Information and Communications to guarantee information safety and security during the management and operations of equipment, software, and databases at the provincial integrated data centre, Son noted.
🌠 Meanwhile, he added, the Department of Home Affairs will continue advising the provincial People’s Committee about the arrangement and supplementation of information technology personnel for provincial and district-level agencies.

Director of the Department of Information and Communications Tran Minh Chieu said that in 2023, Bac Giang continued paying attention to developing human resources for digital transformation, with the organisation of 66 training and refresher courses on digital transformation for civil servants and public employees of local state agencies. In particular, those courses equipped cadres of grassroots women’s unions with digital skills, improved the awareness of digital transformation among cadres of the cultural sector, and gave guidance on the use of digital certificates and signatures for the staff of the education - training and health sectors.
Besides, personnel of the single-window divisions of communes and towns were given instructions in the use of online public services and the digitalisation of papers. Socio-political organisations at the communal level were trained in using document management software and administering via the internet, Chieu elaborated./.
The Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment (MoNRE) will accelerate digital transformation to ensure effective management, exploitation and protection of water resources.
The Ministry of Information and Communications (MIC) has launched “Lang So” (Digital Village) e-handbook at //langso.dx.gov.vn and //www.facebook.com/lang.so.mic to help communities promote digital economy and digital society from the grassroots level, contributing to the country's digital transformation process.
A centre for digital transformation (DXCentre) was recently set up in Ho Chi Minh City with a view to supporting agencies, organisations, and enterprises in going digitalised and studying, piloting, and transferring digital technology products.
It is critical for Vietnam to promote coordination among related parties to accelerate digital transformation, according to Minister of Information and Communications Nguyen Manh Hung.
In Vietnam’s case, she said, President Ho Chi Minh demonstrated his strategic vision by founding the revolutionary press a century ago. The late leader understood the press's role not only as a means to reflect the country’s realities but also as a powerful tool to strengthen national unity and inspire the resistance wars and national construction process.
In recent interviews granted to the Vietnam News Agency (VNA)'s reporters in Mexico, prominent figures reflected on the press’s legacy and its global influence.
VietnamPlus e-newspaper of the VNA clinched an A prize in the “Outstanding Press Product” category for its immersive 3D multimedia project, “Epic of Reunification,” a groundbreaking blend of storytelling and technology. The VNA won another A prize for its eye-catching exhibition booth.
Today, the press for foreign service has evolved into a distinct, irreplaceable force, bridging Vietnam with the world and portraying a nation that is stable, peace-loving, and fully integrated into the international community.
At a review conference held on June 21, Deputy Minister of Construction Nguyen Van Sinh praised the province’s scientific, coordinated, and flexible approach. He noted that the early completion reflects the strong commitment of local authorities, the business community, philanthropists, and residents in improving housing conditions for disadvantaged groups.
The VNA delegation, led by General Director Vu Viet Trang, actively participated in the event, engaging in both professional and diplomatic activities.
In the context where AI dominates and produces vast volumes of content, the only sustainable path forward for journalism is to focus on high-quality content and core values. Journalism must redefine its mission - not to report the fastest, but to provide the most profound and trustworthy value.
Granma and the VNA have great potential for cooperation, especially in sharing content regularly, so that VNA products are published on Granma platforms and vice versa, thereby helping Cuban and Vietnamese people access true information and gain a deep understanding of each other's country and people.
During his stay in China’s Guangzhou city from 1924 to 1927 to prepare for the establishment of a Communist Party to lead Vietnam’s revolution, President Ho Chi Minh founded “Thanh nien” newspaper and released its first issue on June 21, 1925.
Vietnam and Cambodia are hoped to strengthen their robust collaboration across various sectors, particularly in resolving remaining border issues to transform the border area into a zone of peace, friendship, cooperation, and development.
The strategic product, managed and operated by the Vietnam News Agency Digital Media Centre (VNA Media), is an official channel for popularising the Party and State’s information and documents as well as delivering mainstream and trustworthy news to both domestic and international audiences through various kinds of multimedia formats.
Since President Ho Chi Minh founded Thanh Nien (Young People) newspaper in 1925, the Vietnamese revolutionary press has become the voice of the people. During the resistance war against the colonialists, journalists took great personal risks to inspire patriotism and the will of rising up against foreign invaders.
The total investment exceeded 319 billion VND (12.2 million USD), including over 261 billion VND from the state budget and 57.5 billion VND mobilised from businesses, organisations, and individuals.
The Mekong Delta province of Tien Giang is intensifying efforts to combat illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing as part of the country’s goal of having the European Commission’s “yellow card” warning lifted.
Throughout its 80-year history, the VNA has remained at the forefront of information dissemination. It has consistently delivered timely, accurate, and objective reports on both domestic and international events, serving the Party’s leadership, the State’s management, and the public’s demand for official news.
With strong support from local authorities, businesses, organisations, and residents, the province has successfully built or repaired 10,707 homes for disadvantaged households, including war veterans, families of martyrs, ethnic minority people, and low-income residents.
Throughout its resistance against colonialists and imperialists, Vietnam developed a revolutionary press that has served as a benchmark for just and legitimate causes worldwide.
Founded in 1842, the Vienna Philharmonic is regarded as a cultural ambassador of Austria, with prestigious conductors like Mahler and Karajan who shape its legacy. Its New Year’s Concert, broadcast to over 90 countries annually, stands as a global symbol of classical music excellence.
