Addressing the ceremony, editor-in-chief Thuan Huu said that in the present situation, science and technology plays an important role, becoming a great material force in the socio-economic development of each nation.

With its strength, Nhan Dan Newspaper has widely provided information on science and technology achievements. However, the field of science and technology – the specialized field, requires deep understanding. It is necessary to update the information for the majority of people to understand. Mr. Hu hoped that scientists from VAST will collaborate with Nhan Dan Newspaper to bring science and technology closer to the people.

Prof. Acad. Chau Van Minh made a speech at the ceremony


At the ceremony, Prof.Acad. Chau Van Minh appreciated the support of Nhan Dan Newspaper in popularizing news about VAST’s science and technology work among readers over the past time. Now, the Academy has 12 specialized journals. Three of them were recognized to meet international standards. Scientific works on these journals are outstanding research results, which have scientific and practical significance. However, most of these journals are only known by scientists. Therefore, the dissemination of science and technology needs the contributions of journalists. Prof. Acad. Minh expressed his belief that the programme will promote relationship between the two sides. He also wished journalists good health and successful cooperation.
