HÀ NỘI — Editor-in-Chief of Nhân Dân (People) newspaper Thuận Hữu hosted a reception on May 25 for President of China’s Xinhua News Agency (Xinhua) Cai Mingzhao who is on a visit to Việt Nam from May 23-27.
During the meeting, the host appreciated the significance of the visit, and highlighted the traditional cooperation between Nhân Dân newspaper and the China Daily newspaper.
Hữu told his guest that Nhân Dân newspaper receives many delegations from Chinese press agencies every year, contributing to promoting exchange and communication links between the two nations.
Cai Mingzhao, who is also a member of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, stressed that Party and State leaders of the two countries attach special importance to co-operation between the two Party newspapers (the Nhân Dân and the China Daily), and between the two State-run news agencies (Vietnam News Agency and Xinhua).
He urged mainstream press agencies of Việt Nam and China to enhance collaboration, exchange of visits, and information sharing, thus further fostering the friendship and mutual understanding between their peoples.
Xinhua is willing to provide services and products for Nhân Dân newspaper through Xinhua’s office in Việt Nam, he said.
The two sides shared the view that mainstream press agencies should continuously reform themselves and increase their voices and presence in the internet in order to meet increasing information demand. — VNS
