The government leader made the request while hosting a reception
for veteran journalists and leaders of the press agencies in Hanoi on June
20, on the occasion of the 93rd anniversary of the Vietnam
Revolutionary Journalism Day (June 21, 1925-2018).
PM Phuc extended his congratulations to journalists nationwide,
affirming that the Vietnamese revolutionary press always remains a key force
and holds an important position in the ideological and cultural front,
contributing significantly to the Party’s revolutionary cause as well as the
cause of national construction and protection.
Praising the efforts and achievements made by the press agencies
over the past few years, he pointed out a number of shortcomings that the
Vietnamese press needs to seriously examine and address, including the
pursuit of commercialisation, group interests, individual interests, and the
lopsided coverage of news to attract views.

The PM urged the press to work on consolidating social trust and
a consensus in the implementation of the Party and State’s guidelines and
policies, while getting involved in supervising state agencies in the
implementation of the government’s motto of "discipline, integrity, action,
creativity, and efficiency”.
The press should continue to promote its leading role in
combating hostilities, fighting to protect national territorial sovereignty,
proactively refuting false information, and directing public opinion, he
said.
The government leader asked the functional agencies to research,
review, and finalise the relevant mechanisms and policies in order to ensure
the incomes and standard of living for journalists, as well as those working
in press agencies.
On the occasion, PM Phuc presented gifts to several veteran
journalists and representatives of the press agencies.
