Bangkok (VNA) 🔯– Vietnamese Ambassador to Thailand Pham Viet Hung on August 8 applauded the contributions of the community of Vietnamese women in Thailand to spreading Vietnamese cultural values at an event to announce the new executive board of the organisation of Vietnamese women in Thailand in the 2024-026 term in Nong Khai province.
The ambassador said that inheriting the good traditions of Vietnamese women, Vietnamese women in Thailand always play a key role in family and society, as well as in preserving Vietnamese cultural values and traditional customs.
They are an indispensable part and the nucleus for community activities, he said, adding that they are also a bridge that helps Thai people to better understand Vietnam.
The organisation of Vietnamese women in Thailand was established in 2021, with its Executive Committee being the heads of women's unions in localities across Thailand.
It has supported the Vietnamese association in Thailand, while proactively organising charity activities to help the disadvantaged in Vietnam and Thailand.
Earlier the same day, Ambassador Hung had a meeting with Nong Khai province’s Governor Somphob Samitasiri.
At the meeting, Hung thanked the provincial authorities for creating favourable conditions for the Vietnamese community to do business and live in the locality, which is one of the provinces with the largest number of overseas Vietnamese in Thailand.
Noting that Nong Khai's development plans have many similarities with those of Vietnamese localities, the Ambassador hoped that the provincial government will share information and strengthen cooperation with Vietnamese localities.
For his part, the Thai Governor affirmed that Nong Khai province wishes to strengthen cooperation with Vietnam, especially with its twinned localities and central provinces.
He told the guests about economic potential of the province, affirming its priorities for green economy and circular economy.
He also informed that the province is promoting road projects connecting it with Laos, which will help create a development corridor with Vietnam./.
Overseas Vietnamese in Thailand’s Nakhon Phanom province always remember the visit by General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong in 2013, said Tran Van Sau, Vice President of Vietnamese Association in Thailand said.
The strong bond between Thailand and Vietnam was reaffirmed during a meeting between President of the National Assembly and Speaker of the House of Representatives of Thailand Wan Muhamad Noor Matha and Vietnamese Ambassador Pham Viet Hung in Bangkok on July 15.
Vice Chairwoman of the National Assembly (NA) Nguyen Thi Thanh received in Hanoi on June 27 a delegation from the Thailand-Vietnam Parliamentarians’ Friendship Group, led by its Chairman Sakchai Tanaboonchai.
The programmes have brought about positive changes to rural infrastructure, comprehensively improved the material and spiritual lives of farmers, and contributed to Vietnam's economic restructuring, said PM Pham Minh Chinh.
The festival highlighted the contributions and robust development of Vietnam's revolutionary press over the past century while promoting press products and showcasing the creativity of Vietnamese journalists.
The programme on sustainable poverty reduction has achieved its annual targets for reducing the poverty rate as assigned by the National Assembly and the Government. It has fulfilled five specific objectives and five five-year goals, and met nine out of 12 indicators related to addressing basic social service shortages.
UNICEF stands ready to support the Government in implementing this important law and in continuing to invest in teachers as the cornerstone of a resilient, inclusive, and high-quality education system for all children.
PM Pham Minh Chinh highlighted how Vietnam's revolutionary press has continuously evolved and strengthened over the past century, affirming its role as a sharp and vital political, cultural, and ideological weapon serving the Fatherland and the people in the glorious revolutionary cause of the Party.
Vietnamese Consul General in Fukuoka Vu Chi Mai highlighted the growing demand for Vietnamese workers in Kyushu, especially in Fukuoka, Oita, and Saga prefectures. Currently, the region employs about 35,000 Vietnamese manual workers and over 5,000 IT engineers.
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.
