(HBO) – The Association for Study Encouragement of the northern province of Hoa Binh on June 20 met with journalists on the occasion of the 93rd anniversary of the Vietnam Revolutionary Press Day (June 21, 1925 – 2018), towards the 10th year of the Day for Study Encouragement of Vietnam (October 2, 2008-2018).
The meeting was attended by Tran Dang Ninh, Vice Standing Secretary of the provincial Party Committee, Chairman of the provincial People’s Council and head of the province’s delegation of National Assembly (NA) deputies.
Tran
Dang Ninh, Vice Secretary of the provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the
provincial People’s Council, presented the certificates of merit to
organisations with great contributions to promoting communications on study
encouragement.
Since the provincial Study Encouragement Association was launched
20 years ago, the press has been a force that effectively disseminates activities
of study encouragement, as well as the position and role of the association
among people.
Especially, the third congress of the provincial Study
Encouragement Association and a ceremony marking its 20th founding anniversary
were important events for the association. The success of those events was attributable
to press agencies.
Media agencies not only report campaigns for study encouragement,
but also reflect models of constant and life-long studying. In addition, the
sector honours role models who proposed many initiatives in production and
obtained success in starting their businesses, as well as outstanding learning
models in families, clans, community and units, contributing to building a
learning society.
Towards
the 10th anniversary of Vietnam Study Encouragement Day (October 2),
the Study Encouragement Association of Hoa Binh hopes that press agencies of
the province and other localities will join hands with the organisation to
raise public awareness of the significance of the Day.
Addressing the event, Vice Secretary of
the provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People’s Council
Tran Dang Ninh instructed that the press needs to step up activities to honour
and duplicate advanced models in real life, while strengthening its role in
guiding
