A person who always keeps their word.

(Baonghean) - Having risen through the ranks from a village-level official with extensive practical experience, coupled with his passion, he has become an active and enthusiastic contributor, helping to make the Nghe An newspaper more vibrant. This is Mr. Le Van Tri (born in 1968) - a typical contributor in Anh Son district.

Le Van Tri was born and raised in Hung Son commune (Anh Son district) – a land on the left bank of the Lam River that has been impoverished for generations. As a student, he was passionate about books, newspapers, and literature, but due to difficult circumstances, he had to put his academic dreams on hold after finishing high school. After completing his military service, Le Van Tri returned to his hometown and actively participated in social work. Starting as a village head, he is now the Vice Chairman of the Fatherland Front of the district, a representative of the People's Council of the commune and district for many terms, and currently a representative of the 3rd term of the Provincial People's Council. His work has brought him into contact with the people, understanding their thoughts, aspirations, and difficulties at the grassroots level, which has led him to reflect and ponder. Then, his old passion resurfaced, and he began writing about his daily reflections and praising good deeds and successful entrepreneurs in the area.

Mr. Tri shared: "I wield the pen both as a citizen and as a Catholic."

Mr. Le Van Tri.

These two people are not separate, but rather closely connected and blended into one. When writing about my work experiences and practical life, I want to share my experiences and give voice to the people. When writing about religion, I hope that people will gain a more accurate understanding of Catholicism, and that Catholic parishioners will also understand their faith better in order to practice the motto "Reverence for God, love for the country."

According to Mr. Le Van Tri, for decades, newspapers have been an indispensable part of his daily life. If he is too busy with work or for any other reason to read a newspaper, he feels a sense of loss. He believes that reading newspapers is the best way to learn; through each event and article, we can glean valuable lessons that benefit our work, business, and lives. And through the true stories reflected in the newspapers, we gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of life.

Speaking about Nghe An Newspaper, Mr. Le Van Tri said it is one of his favorite newspapers. He believes the information is always highly reliable, both well-directed and selective, and timely. The special sections and columns are always relevant to real life, meeting the basic information needs of readers. Furthermore, Nghe An Newspaper has a large readership, and many people trust the accuracy of its information. Therefore, not only is he a loyal reader, but Mr. Le Van Tri is also an active contributor to Nghe An Newspaper, especially in recent years. He confided: “As a contributor to the newspaper, being able to voice my opinion, the voice of the people, I truly feel honored and proud. Every time an article is published in the newspaper, I feel happier and more joyful than a party. Therefore, when I have new and valuable information, I always give it to Nghe An Newspaper first.”

For us, local reporters, whenever we return to Anh Son, we always seek out Mr. Le Van Tri, who shares information about the situation in all aspects to help us develop suitable topics. And whenever our specialized department needs to recruit contributors for a special section or column, the first person we think of in Anh Son district is Mr. Le Van Tri. Because when we commission articles from him, we are confident in the progress and quality, as he always understands and keeps his word.
