Youth urged to strengthen China-Vietnam media ties

Media organizations in China and Vietnam should work together to tell the story of the nations' joint efforts in promoting peace and shared development, serving as a bridge for people-to-people exchanges, a forum heard on Thursday.

At an event themed "Dialogue in the New Era: China-Vietnam Exchange for Young Media Professionals" held in Hanoi, media industry leaders from the two countries stressed the importance of close cooperation.

This year marks the 75th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Vietnam, as well as the China-Vietnam Year of People-to-People Exchanges. At the forum, Ngo Minh Hien, vice-president of the state-run broadcaster Voice of Vietnam, said the media cooperation not only deepens mutual understanding but also enhances ties.
