More than a year since the launching of the first-ever press competition themed “Vietnam-International integration process,” the Ministry of Information and Communications hosted the awards ceremony on November 21, handing out 17 awards to the winning authors and author teams.

According to the Organising Board, the competition has reached the goals of boosting the efficiency of propagation activities related to international integration and spreading the image of the Vietnamese land, people, and culture.

Additionally, a greater coverage of the country’s renovation and international integration among domestic and overseas communities has been achieved, raising awareness among the overseas Vietnamese community, foreign individuals and organisations, and countries across the globe. This has contributed to spreading news of Vietnam’s development potential as well as the myriad co-operation opportunities on offer.

From the launch on October 15, 2016 to May 30, 2017, the deadline for submissions, the Organising Board received 121 entries from 88 authors and author teams coming from 27 participating organisations.
