Mr. Nguyen Trong Nga commended the efforts and contributions of the staff at the NPPH True Facts over the years and congratulated them on their achievements in 2024.
This year will see many significant events for the country, so the Head of the Central Propaganda and Mass Mobilization Commission requested that the NPPH True Facts fulfill certain tasks to enhance its guiding and leading role as the top publisher for the Party and the political system.
He urged the NPPH to innovate and produce more substantial and valuable books that address both theoretical and practical issues, focusing on the core principles of the Party’s renewal policies. These publications should serve the upcoming Party congresses at various levels, culminating in the 14th Party Congress and the 40th anniversary of national renewal.
Mr. Nguyen Trong Nga also stressed that books are the crystallization of human knowledge. In an era of integration and renewal, promoting reading culture must be prioritized and spread from central authorities to local levels.
“In any stage of development, whether it’s the 5.0 or 6.0 technological revolution, we always return to books. Knowledge cannot be confined to urban areas but must reach even farmers and laborers,” Mr. Nguyen Trong Nga said.
