The construction and operation of the People's Army Newspaper's permanent office in the Northwest is an important milestone, marking the development in scale, organization, and propaganda capacity of the soldier newspaper in the strategic area of the Northwest with a rich revolutionary tradition. During the historic Dien Bien Phu Campaign, the Frontline Editorial Office of the People's Army Newspaper was born right at the front.

In difficult working conditions, with 5 cadres and reporters, they overcame difficulties and hardships, promptly published and distributed 33 special issues right at the front, promptly propagated the resistance line and combat motto in the Dien Bien Phu campaign; encouraged and motivated the fighting spirit of the army and people of Dien Bien Phu and the whole country, contributing to the historic Dien Bien Phu Victory "famous in five continents, shaking the world".

In his speech, Major General Doan Xuan Bo emphasized: The construction of the People's Army Newspaper's permanent office in the Northwest is a great joy, opening up opportunities for soldier journalists to carry out propaganda work, reflecting the task of building and protecting the Fatherland in the Northwestern provinces. It is an honor and pride, but along with that comes a great responsibility. Soldier journalists need to continue to promote their sense of responsibility, preserve and promote the value of the functions and technical equipment system so that the headquarters of the People's Army Newspaper's permanent office in the Northwest becomes a bright spot in the region.
