Last Friday, the Deputy Secretary of the Da Nang Party Committee, Mr Vo Cong Tri, played host to some representatives from the Paxaxon Newspaper, the voice of the Lao People's Revolutionary Party Central Committee.  Also present at the reception was the Da Nang Newspaper Editor-in-Chief, Mr Mai Duc Loc.

Deputy Secretary Tri remarked that Da Nang is one of Viet Nam’s three largest press centres.  He said that the city-based press agencies are making significant contributions to developing Da Nang into a modern and civilised city.  He also highlighted the important role of the Da Nang Newspaper, the voice of the party, the government and the people of the city, in publicising the guidelines and policies of the Party, the State and the city, as well as reflecting the aspirations of local residents.
