The press continues to adhere to its principles and purposes, and to promote the right focus and key points.

(Baonghean) -This morning, December 5, the Provincial Party Committee's Propaganda Department coordinated with the Department of Information and Communications to organize a regular press conference, evaluating the information and propaganda work in newspapers and magazines in November and orienting propaganda in December 2011. Comrades: To Hong Hai, Member of the Provincial Party Committee's Standing Committee, Head of the Propaganda Department, Dang Khac Thang - Deputy Director of the Department of Information and Communications chaired.

In November, press agencies did a good job of propagating important political and current events, encouraging and motivating the provision of information in the right direction to serve socio-economic activities well, ensuring national defense and security in the area. Some press agencies, typically Nghe An Newspaper, Nghe An Radio and Television Station, Nghe An Labor, Nghe An Culture continued to demonstrate strong efforts to innovate in content, form, and propaganda methods, making press activities rich and vibrant, creating positive social effects and clearer propaganda effects. Newspapers and radio stations had many works that received responses from authorities at all levels and units with a more serious and responsible spirit.

However, some opinions say that: Some localities and units still accept the issues raised by the press in a perfunctory and formal manner. Therefore, it is necessary to coordinate to thoroughly handle the issues raised by the press, creating trust between the Party and the government with the people. Particularly, the Ho Xuan Huong Award needs to be closely directed soon, handling and clarifying related issues so that the award has profound meaning and value.

Speaking at the meeting, comrade To Hong Hai highly appreciated the information and propaganda work of press agencies in November and noted that in the coming time, press agencies should continue to properly implement their principles and purposes, focusing on information and propaganda on the results of implementing the tasks and plans of 2011 and solutions to implement the tasks and plans of 2012, paying attention to taking care of the poor during Tet, creating a healthy atmosphere for celebrating Tet.

The conference also heard the leaders of the Department of Home Affairs provide some information about the results of attracting high-quality human resources and public administrative reform in 2011.
