Through the festival, broadcasters have learned new ways to improve their programs. Reporter Do Hoai Ngoc Diem from Can Tho city’s Radio and TV station, said: “The festival was an opportunity for us to meet and share experiences with our colleagues from other stations. We were exposed to new topics presented from different regional perspectives”.
Voice of Vietnam President Nguyen The Ky, Head of the Festival’s Steering Board, said this year’s theme “Radio - Innovation and Diversity” focuses on innovation and diversity in content, production methods, and formats. Mr. Ky said that in the context of the Industrial Revolution 4.0, the media needs to improve its use of technology to spread meaningful messages: “Innovation means finding new content, production methods, and technology. Diversity means using new technology and techniques to present content in different ways. If we did not innovate, the number of listeners would shrink”.
