Public trust in mainstream media, together with the press’s pioneering role and social responsibility, remains the clearest testament to the effectiveness, resilience and enduring vitality of Vietnam’s revolutionary journalism.
Dao Tung (1925–1990) spent nearly 11 years (1966–1977) as Editor-in-Chief of the Vietnam Thong tan xa (VNTTX, now the VNA) and over 13 years (1977–1990) as General Director cum Editor-in-Chief of VNA.
Marking a historic milestone, the first-ever photo book chronicling the history of Vietnam’s revolutionary journalism has been released to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Vietnam Revolutionary Press Day (June 21, 1925 – June 21, 2025).
