Hanoi (VNA) 𝐆– The Ministry of Planning and Investment (MPI) is gathering ideas on a draft project to promote human resources development for the semiconductor industry until 2030 with a vision to 2050, destined for the approval of the Prime Minister.
MPI Deputy Minister Nguyen Thi Bich Ngoc said that the building of the project is crucial, especially in the current period. She said that the ministry has collected opinions from ministries, sectors, localities, research institutes, and universities while listening to ideas from domestic and foreign experts.
Its objectives include ensuring that by 2030, the Vietnamese semiconductor industry’s human resources participate in the process of designing semiconductor microchips to meet the actual needs of the market. The sector will also engage in packaging and testing semiconductor microchips, and gradually grasp the technology in the semiconductor manufacturing stage. By the end of the year, Vietnam aims to train at least 50,000 engineers and bachelor's degrees to serve the semiconductor industry in all stages of the value chain.
By 2050, Vietnam expects to become an important link in the global semiconductor industry value chain with a contingent of engineers and experts capable of meeting the development requirements of the Vietnamese semiconductor industry in both quality and quantity.
To continue perfecting the draft project, Ngoc called on ministries, sectors, localities, institutes, universities, and experts to contribute direct and specific ideas on the draft. They should review project funding, standard laboratories, private sector participation, the scope, and the renaming of the project.
Vice Chairman of the People’s Committee of Da Nang City Ho Ky Minh said the budget will serve as the basis for implementing the objectives of the project, meeting the urgent needs of the industry. At the same time, the inclusion of the number of standard laboratories will create the foundation for developing investment policy proposals to submit to competent authorities for approval, enabling the investment procedures to be carried out following the law.
He also supported the encouragement of private sector engagement to diversify resources for the building and implementation of the project, especially from State-owned and private enterprises.
Representatives from several universities asserted that during the project’s implementation process, it is necessary to continue to have the active participation of relevant parties, especially the cooperation and consensus of institutes and training facilities.
Ngoc said that developing the semiconductor industry is an objective requirement and a strategic choice, stressing that developing high-tech science will promote the country's growth. Training for the semiconductor industry will educate high-quality human resources, she said. The process must be synchronised with developing the semiconductor industry ecosystem and associated with training in specialised sciences following the roadmap and fields in which Vietnam has strengths./.
A recent seminar in Hanoi highlighted the critical importance of the coordination among state agencies, schools, and enterprises to the development of human resources for the semiconductor industry.
Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh has recently signed a decision on the establishment of a national steering committee on semiconductor industry development (steering committee).
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.
