At the ceremony, comrade Trinh Van Anh, Chairman of the Bac Giang Provincial Journalists Association and Editor-in-Chief of Bac Giang Newspaper, presented a speech reviewing the glorious tradition of Vietnam's revolutionary journalism.
In line with the flow of the country's press, in January 1941, the Bac Giang Provincial Party Committee launched Phuc Quoc newspaper.
In early 1947, the Provincial Information and Propaganda Department was established, publishing a weekly newsletter to propagate production and combat tasks.
In early 1949, the Provincial Party Propaganda Department published the newspaper "Internal News".
In mid-1950, the newspaper "Tin Noi Bo" merged with the newspaper "Tin Bac Giang".
On November 30, 1961, the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee issued a Resolution to convert the "Tin Bac Giang" newspaper into Song Thuong Newspaper, the predecessor of today's Bac Giang Newspaper.
After the country was unified, Bac Giang press entered a new stage of development. On September 21, 1977, the People's Committee of Ha Bac province issued a decision to establish Ha Bac Radio Station on the basis of the radio and broadcasting system under the Information Department and operated from October 1, 1977. In addition to print newspapers, radio and television, during this period, Van Nghe Newspaper was also born along with the development of the Provincial Literature and Arts Association.
To gather a team of journalists and propagandists, in 1972, the Ha Bac Provincial Journalists Association held its first congress. From its initial establishment with more than 10 members, the Association now has 200 members.
The Association regularly performs well the role of gathering, uniting, and motivating members to work enthusiastically and creatively, practice their profession in accordance with the law and professional ethics, and contribute to the good performance of the tasks of press agencies.
In each period, although with different names associated with the merger and separation of provinces, the press agencies and the Provincial Journalists Association continuously matured and grew.
Especially in recent years, the province's press agencies have promoted the application of information technology, digital transformation, and comprehensive innovation in all aspects.
