On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of Vietnam Revolutionary Press Day (June 21, 1925 - June 21, 2025) and the 40th anniversary of the establishment of Nghe An Journalists Association, a delegation of Nghe An Provincial Journalists Association visited Kim Lien National Special Relic Site to offer flowers and incense to commemorate President Ho Chi Minh.

Attending the ceremony were comrades: Pham Ngoc Canh - Deputy Head of the Provincial Party Committee's Propaganda and Mass Mobilization Department; Tran Minh Ngoc - Director of Nghe An Radio and Television Station, Chairman of the Provincial Journalists Association; Ngo Duc Kien - Editor-in-Chief of Nghe An Newspaper, Vice Chairman of the Provincial Journalists Association; Ho Thi Ngan - Permanent Vice Chairman of the Provincial Journalists Association; along with comrades of the Executive Committee of Nghe An Journalists Association, term VIII and Heads of Representative Offices, resident reporters in Nghe An province.

On June 21, 1925, Thanh Nien Newspaper, founded and directly directed by leader Nguyen Ai Quoc, published its first issue, marking the birth of Vietnam's revolutionary press.
The birth of Thanh Nien Newspaper contributed to solving the crisis in methods and forms of propaganda for revolutionary struggle that contemporary domestic press publications could not do.

In Nghe An, in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, this place became one of the key areas in the colonial exploitation and exploitation policy of the French colonialists and their lackeys. After the Thanh Nien Newspaper was born, Nghe An became the place where many press publications were formed and developed to propagate the struggle against imperialism and feudalism.
Leader Nguyen Ai Quoc - Ho Chi Minh - the founder and great leader of Vietnam's revolutionary journalism was also the one who trained the first generation of proletarian journalists in Vietnam such as: Le Hong Phong, Le Hong Son, Ho Tung Mau, Truong Van Linh...




President Ho Chi Minh once advised: "Journalists are also revolutionary soldiers, pens and paper are their sharp weapons."
Following his teachings, throughout the development of Vietnamese journalism, Nghe An journalism has accompanied the country and homeland in the revolutionary struggles for national liberation: propagating and encouraging patriotic emulation movements and typical examples in social life.
In the flow of 100 years of Vietnamese revolutionary press, Nghe An press has continuously grown and developed, always closely following reality, reflecting truthfully, objectively, focusing on the key points of the province's development situation; proactively providing accurate and timely information on the Party's guidelines and policies and the State's laws, while actively grasping issues that public opinion and the people are interested in to promptly reflect, thereby becoming a bridge to solve practical requirements.

In the current period, Nghe An press is actively implementing digital transformation; focusing on propagating the revolution of streamlining the apparatus; propagating the implementation of important Resolutions of the Central Committee; organizing Party Congresses at all levels, towards the 14th National Party Congress.
Nghe An Press always strives to accompany the development of the homeland and country, contributing to building Vietnam to become more and more prosperous and civilized as Uncle Ho always wished.

Offering flowers and incense to commemorate President Ho Chi Minh, the delegation expressed their sincere respect and infinite gratitude for his great contributions, the genius leader of our Party and people, an outstanding activist of the international communist and workers' movement, who devoted and sacrificed his whole life to the cause of national liberation, class liberation, and the struggle for peace and happiness of the Vietnamese people and people of the world.

On the same day, the delegation of the Provincial Journalists Association offered incense at Da Pagoda - The only pagoda in Vietnam is worshiping 512 martyrs who are journalists and reporters who heroically sacrificed their lives in the resistance wars to protect the Fatherland..

The delegation of the Provincial Journalists Association also visited, encouraged and presented gifts to Journalist Tran Van Hien - former Deputy Editor-in-Chief of Nghe An Newspaper, who had worked hard to find the names of martyr journalists to bring them to worship at Da Pagoda.
