Many ABU member stations, not just VOV, face challenges in their operation. The way forward is to work together, to partner with others. We appreciate VOV’s cooperation and sharing to turn challenges into opportunities.”

To integrate deeply into the international community, VOV has built a solid foundation based on the aspiration for a more professional journalism, along with stronger technological transformation.

"We always analyze factors that make our successes to see what can be done better. Our reporters and editors are not satisfied with achievements, but always strive to improve their profession and produce good journalistic works on radio, television, print, and online platforms,” VOV Vice President Pham Manh Hung said.

Toward these goals, VOV is strongly transforming digitally. VOV Vice President Vu Hai Quang said VOV is conducting a National Digital Radio Platform Project to set up an effective digital infrastructure.
