At the Hanoi People Magazine, Vice Chairman of Hanoi City Vu Thu Ha highly appreciated the efforts and endeavors of the magazine's collective. Comrade Vu Thu Ha emphasized that Hanoi is the center of the whole country, so press activities have their own characteristics, needing to meet the development needs of the capital. Hanoi People Magazine, under the City Literature and Arts Association, after converting its operating model from newspaper to magazine, continues to operate with its own characteristics, closely following the city's guidelines and policies but still bearing the identity of a Hanoi magazine.

Besides encouragement and motivation, comrade Vu Thu Ha also said that in the coming time, in the context that the press will reorganize according to general requirements, Hanoi People Magazine needs to ensure good implementation of general propaganda work, deploy propaganda activities for the city's policies and guidelines, but still needs to innovate, be creative, closely follow the principles and purposes, and become a bridge between the people and the city government.

To do so, the Editorial Board, staff, reporters, and editors of the magazine need to have new thinking and ways of working to meet the new information needs of the city”, emphasized Comrade Vu Thu Ha.

Regarding the direction and tasks in the coming time, Editor-in-Chief of Hanoi People Magazine Vuong Minh Hue said that the magazine is currently published once a month and still closely follows the city's propaganda policies, including specialized pages and columns on Hanoi culture and people.
