📋 Tender Overview
In an age of overwhelming information, the greatest value of journalism is no longer just reporting news faster, but helping society better understand and trust more. Download On the 101st anniversary of Vietnam Revolutionary Press Day, General Secretary and President To Lam wrote an important article about Vietnams revolutionary press in the digital age. On the 101st anniversary of Vietnam Revolutionary Press Day, General Secretary and President To Lam wrote an important article about Vietnams revolutionary press in the digital age. This is both a recognition of the glorious journey that revolutionary journalism has gone through and an important orientation for the road ahead. In the context of artificial intelligence, big data, social networks and digital platforms that are profoundly changing the global media environment, the article of the General Secretary and President does not simply discuss the digital transformation of the press. What is more profound is that the article poses the need to reposition the role and mission of the press in a new era, with very new, very different and higher requirements. If digital transformation is a story of technology, then repositioning the mission is a story of history. And perhaps, the biggest message the article conveys is: Vietnams revolutionary press must innovate strongly to continue fulfilling its noble mission in a world that is changing every day. Download In the digital age, competitive advantage no longer lies mainly in physical assets, but in the ability to adapt and innovate. Digital transformation is first and foremost a transformation of thinking. The first unique point in the article is the approach to digital transformation. In practice, many people still understand digital transformation mainly as investing in technology, purchasing modern equipment, building a converged newsroom or expanding presence on digital platforms. Those things are necessary, but they are not the essence of digital transformation. It is worth noting that the General Secretary and President raise the issue at a deeper level. Digital transformation is not just about changing tools, but first and foremost about changing thinking. Its not just about digitizing old processes, but about redesigning operating models to suit the new environment. Its not just about putting content on digital platforms, its about reorganizing the entire process of production, distribution and interaction with the public. In fact, journalism is facing a transformation similar to many other professions in the digital economy. Successful press agencies in the future will not be the ones that own the most equipment, but the ones that know how to exploit data best, understand the public most deeply and innovate operating models the fastest. That is why the articles of the General Secretary and President have meaning beyond the scope of journalism. It reflects a modern development mindset: in the digital age, competitive advantage no longer lies primarily in physical assets, but in the ability to adapt and innovate. From adapting to technology to creating the future The second notable point is the proactive spirit in the face of new technology waves. Over the past many years, the development of social networks and artificial intelligence has raised many concerns about the future of journalism. AI can write news. Algorithms can deliver content. Digital platforms can reach billions of users in just a few seconds. In the face of these changes, anxiety or defensiveness may appear. But the article of the Head of the Party and State does not choose that approach. The throughout spirit of the article is the spirit of proactive adaptation, proactive innovation and proactive creation of the future. This is the spirit that made the Doi Moi success four decades ago. In 1986, the country faced huge challenges but chose to open, innovate and integrate. Today, the press is facing a similar turning point. Download The issue is not what technology will do to journalism, but what journalism will do with technology. The issue is therefore not what technology will do to journalism, but what journalism will do with technology. That is a very important change in thinking. From a response mindset to a leading mindset. From a passive adaptive mindset to a proactive constructive mindset. From seeing risks to identifying opportunities. When information becomes part of national sovereignty In the depth of the article there is another strategic message: journalism in the digital age is not only a story of information but also a story of information sovereignty. In the traditional world, the power of journalism mainly lies in the ability to collect and transmit information. But in the digital environment, data, algorithms and platforms are becoming decisive factors. Whoever owns the data will have the analytical advantage. Whoever controls the platform will have a distribution advantage. Who governs the flow of information will affect social perception. Therefore, competition in the digital age is not just competition about content. Its also about competing in technology, data, platforms and the ability to reach the public. From that perspective, journalism is not just a professional activity or a socio-cultural field.The press is also an important part of national autonomy in the digital space. If in the last century, national sovereignty was mainly understood on land, at sea and in the air, today, sovereignty is also present in the space of data and information. Protecting information sovereignty therefore becomes a new mission of journalism in the digital age. Download The mission of the press is to serve the Fatherland, serve the people, protect the truth, spread good things and contribute to strengthening social trust. What has changed is technology, what has not changed is the mission However, perhaps the deepest layer of meaning in the article of the General Secretary and President does not lie in technolo
