The award drew the participation of people from all walks of life, both at home and abroad, showing the increasing attention of the public to the Party’s activities, she said.
The entries reflected Party building tasks over the past year, with many entries reporting on the fight against deterioration in political ideology, morality and lifestyle among a portion of Party members and against corruption and wastefulness.
They also covered the Doi Moi (renewal) cause, the restructuring of the political apparatus and training of officials of different levels.
Many models of good practice and good Party members were also reported.
The top legislator said those press works contributed to Party building and the fight against wrongful and distorted allegations by hostile forces, thus strengthening trust in the Party among people, State cadres and Party members.
The awards also reflect the hard work of reporters and editors, she said.
She took the occasion to praise the contribution of the press towards the cause of national construction in general and in Party building in particular.
