Tey Maly briefed the host about the press industry in his country, and highly valued Hanoi media outlet development and achievements.

The Cambodian journalists put forth a series of issues on how to deal with news and news sources. The Hanoi side shared experiences in the handling of fake news on Vietnamese and foreign social networks.

For his part, Director of the Hanoi Department of Information and Communications Nguyen Ngoc Ky said 20 press agencies are operating in Hanoi, ranging from printed newspapers, radio, television and online press.

He stressed that the Cambodian journalist delegation’s working visit opens chances for further cooperation of the press industry of Vietnam and Cambodia in the time ahead, thereby contributing positively to Vietnam – Cambodia media development.
