It's been so long since we've seen such warm sunshine.
The awards were presented during events marking the 101st anniversary of Vietnamese Revolutionary Press Day. In Huế, the city's People's Committee organized a meeting for journalists and presented the 7th Hải Triều Journalism Award. This award, established in 2000, is recognized for its significant political, social, and humanitarian value.
This year's Hải Triều competition saw 120 entries across four journalistic categories. Lê Hoàng Sơn received an award for his five-part series, "Nghề xưa cố đô còn một chút này" (Ancient Crafts of the Former Capital Still Remain). Bùi Ngọc Long and Lê Hoài Nhân jointly won an award for their six-part series, "Tinh hoa ẩm thực chay xứ Huế" (Essence of Huế's Vegetarian Cuisine).

Furthermore, Lê Hoài Nhân also received an award for his photo essay titled "Huế hôm nay sau lũ lịch sử: 'Lâu rồi mới thấy nắng ấm thế này'" (Huế Today After Historic Floods: 'It's Been So Long Since We've Seen Such Warm Sunshine'). The event in Huế acknowledged the significant contributions of journalists to the city's development and recognized the organizers' efforts in running a thorough and engaging competition.

The ceremonies highlighted the dedication and quality of journalism produced by reporters in the region.
