Hanoi (VNA) - The Authority of Foreign Information Service under the Ministry of Information and Communications on April 13 inaugurated a multi-lingual platform to promote Vietnam at https://vietnam.vn.

It gathers information from over 100 major press agencies, 63 portals of provinces and centrally-run cities, and data sources of many organisations, businesses and individuals.

According to Pham Anh Tuan, Director of the Authority of Foreign Information Service, the strong development of digital technology and artificial intelligence requires Vietnam to develop new and intelligent tools, platforms and technology applications with outstanding features in processing and providing information, thus meeting the demands of readers and viewers.

Apart from official information, the website will provide updated information on localities (Destinations column), beautiful images and videos about Vietnam (Multimedia), digitized information on Vietnam (Vietnam 3D); and introduce outstanding individuals (Figure). The platform is also an open forum for domestic and international viewers to express their perspectives on Vietnam (Views), Tuan said.

On the occasion, the Authority of Foreign Information Service launched a contest “Happy Vietnam 2023” themed “For happiness of everyone” for local and foreign photographers and video makers.

The competition aims to encourage collectives and individuals to introduce the beauty of nature and people across regions in Vietnam, as well as the country's achievements in innovation, development and international integration, especially in the fields of economy, trade, investment, and tourism, and its efforts in preserving and upholding cultural and heritage values.

Entries should be submitted before September 16, 2023./.
