This is the third exhibition since Vietnam’s first newspaper, the Gia Dinh, was first published in 1865. The first two exhibitions were both held in Saigon in 1943 and 1966.

At the exhibition, visitors will have the chance to enjoy valuable and important examples of printed journalism, as well as the cameras and press cards used by famous journalists like Vu Trong Phung and Nguyen Huy Tuong.

The exhibition will also display the original copy of Uncle Ho’s letter written to southern people in 1946 and published in the Cuu Quoc Newspaper.

There will also be a seminar to evaluate the role of journalism in the country’s history.
