MTXD - On the evening of December 19, in Hanoi, the Ministry of Information and Communications held the Opening Ceremony of the Exhibition and Announcement of the Awards of the first "Happy Vietnam - Happy Vietnam" Photo and Video Contest, 2023.
Speaking at the opening ceremony, Minister of Information and Communications Nguyen Manh Hung shared that this is the first time the Ministry of Information and Communications has organized an online contest on the Vietnam Image Promotion Platform - Vietnam.vn, with the aim of encouraging people across the country, overseas Vietnamese, and international friends to apply digital technology to create photos and videos about the country and people of Vietnam.
Since launching the contest in June 2023, after 4 months, the contest has attracted the participation of more than 7,000 photo and video works. From there, the Organizing Committee has selected 28 works for awards and 70 photo works, 14 video works for exhibition.
On the Vietnam.vn platform, over 90 million people have viewed these 7,000 works, of which over 40% are from abroad. Some works have been viewed by over half a million people. These are huge numbers, surprising even the organizers.
“Each work is a unique perspective, a single moment, an interesting story, a beauty, a reflection that life, that Heaven and Earth bestow upon humans, if not recorded at that exact moment, at that exact place, it will be lost. And if it is not recorded, it will be a loss.”
According to the Minister, digital technology and digital platforms have created conditions for every citizen, no matter where they are, with a smartphone and 4G/5G coverage, to be creative and contribute their voice to create a Vietnam of the people.
It is known that after 4 months of launching from June to October 2023, the contest has attracted more than 7,000 photos and videos from domestic and international authors. From there, the Organizing Committee has selected nearly 28 outstanding and outstanding works to award prizes and 70 photos and 14 videos to be displayed at the exhibition.
Each work is an interesting story, a beautiful memory, full of happiness or maybe a practical perspective on a life with many difficulties and hardships but always full of smiles, joy and happiness.
At the ceremony, the organizing committee announced and awarded 28 winning works of the photo and video contest "Happy Vietnam - Happy Vietnam 2023".
First prize in the photo category went to the work “Flying to Vietnam” by author Bui Cuong Quyet; first prize in the video category went to the work “Da Nang - City of Biodiversity” by author Nguyen Thanh Paven.
The contest is a vivid demonstration of the deep concern and consistent policy of our Party and State towards the work of caring for the material and spiritual life of the people, taking the people as the center, in the spirit of "Leaving no one behind" and creating all favorable conditions for people to participate, contribute, promote their capacity and intelligence in the cause of building, developing, protecting the Fatherland and international integration of the country.
