NA Chairman Trong praised the newspaper for firmly grasping the Party’s viewpoints and guidelines and keeping abreast of reality to reflect in a timely and vivid manner the revolutionary and patriotic movements of the armed forces and the people during its development over 60 years.

He praised it for strongly supporting revolutionary heroism and encouraging the army and people to surmount all severe challenges and hardships to gain independence, freedom and reunification for the country.

The NA Chairman urged the paper to continue focusing on spreading news on people-army relations, tasks of building the people’s defence, the people’s preparedness to defend the Fatherland, and the strong people’s army, which is ready to protect the people and fulfill all assignments ordered by the Fatherland.

He reminded the paper’s staff that as preparations for the Party’s XIth national congress were underway, Quan doi Nhan dan newspaper should work as an important channel to deliver officers, Party members, people and soldiers’ comments on the congress’s draft documents.

The paper should also concentrate on discovering new elements as well as new and efficient production methods, and highlight patriotic and emulation movements and the implementation of policies and guidelines of the Party, State and army, NA Chairman Trong said./.
