VO August 13 is an important day in Laos as it marks the occasion on which the Lao media was born INTRO: August 13 is an important day in Laos as it marks the occasion on which the Lao media was born. Lao media on Tuesday the 13 of August observe the 63rd anniversary of its foundation. Our news team Deputy Minister of Information, Culture and Tourism, Savankhone Razmountry, Vice President of the Lao Journalists' Association, Somsanouk Mixay, Director General of the Lao National Television and other media representatives of public outlets on the occasion of Lao Media and Publication Day. STORY: When asked as the director of all media in Laos, what's your plan for development? Deputy Minister of Information, Culture and Tourism, Savankhone Razmountry said that, In his point of view, all media personnel are hardworking and perform their tasks very well. All media outlets contribute and coordinate under the policies of the state to report on the lifestyle of society as a whole and all Lao ethnic groups. The media are charged with providing feedback from the public to help develop the country. In the future, the government will place more importance on the work of the media as it is an important propaganda organ in protecting and developing a safe, secure and fair society. The Ministry of Information, Culture and Tourism pays attention to this and creates conditions to strengthen the knowledge and skills of journalists and reporters, particularly in relation to the Party and state's policies. If we are to build society from the ground up, reporters need to be educated in all fields. When asked Director General of Lao National Television Dr Bounchom Vongphet, as You represent the LNTV and have worked in the media for 30 years. What do you think about the Lao media? Do young reporters do a good job in providing information to the public? He said, a significant role in the struggle for independence and after national liberation for the development of the country and for its reconstruction. The media have been the bridge between the leadership and the people. They relay the decisions and policies of the Party to the public and relate the opinions of the people to the leadership. Now, I think we have to train journalists further and get them skilled and specialised. We must have economic, sports and agricultural journalists. We must increase topical news and need more places to debate on radio and television too. It's imperative to have more in-depth and investigative articles and then we'll really perform our duties well as journalists.
