Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung has approved the organisation of the Vietnam Development Partnership Forum (VDPF) 2015.
The PM appointed the Ministry of Planning and Investment to prepare the forum’s agenda with a focus on Vietnam’s key issues in its extensive global integration from 2016-2020 that require opinions and ideas from the partners.
He is scheduled to attend the event and hold talks with development partners.
The VDPF, firstly held in 2013, supports substantive policy discussion between the Vietnam Government, its development partners, the private sector, local and international civil society organisations, national research institutions and other development actors to foster broad-based socio-economic development and improved well-being for all Vietnamese.
Last year, the forum was organised under the theme “Accelerating economic institutional reform, strengthening resilience and enhancing the competitiveness of Vietnam’s economy”.

Granma and the VNA have great potential for cooperation, especially in sharing content regularly, so that VNA products are published on Granma platforms and vice versa, thereby helping Cuban and Vietnamese people access true information and gain a deep understanding of each other's country and people.
During his stay in China’s Guangzhou city from 1924 to 1927 to prepare for the establishment of a Communist Party to lead Vietnam’s revolution, President Ho Chi Minh founded “Thanh nien” newspaper and released its first issue on June 21, 1925.

Throughout its resistance against colonialists and imperialists, Vietnam developed a revolutionary press that has served as a benchmark for just and legitimate causes worldwide.
