Addressing the conference, Deputy Prime Minister Tran Luu Quang emphasized that the country, as well as the world, will face many difficulties and challenges in the coming time. Among the common difficulties are those encountered by press agencies such as decreased income from advertisement, while there are many tasks. Therefore, press agencies need to confront difficulties and challenges directly, he stressed. They should develop strategies to create new and more attractive products, better manage journalists, and improve the quality of press publications. Press agencies, especially major ones representing the voice of the Party and the State, must provide standardized information.
