Mr. Nguyen Khac Van said that SGGP Newspaper was established only five days after Saigon was liberated. From the first printed daily newspaper of the South under the Ho Chi Minh City Party Committee, up to now, after nearly 50 years of development, the newspaper has had many publications, including printed SGGP newspaper in Vietnamese and Chinese, SGGP Financial Investment newspaper, and SGGP Online newspaper in Vietnamese, English, and Chinese.
According to Mr. Nguyen Khac Van, in the context that printed newspapers are facing fierce competition with other types of online newspapers and social networks, SGGP Newspaper still maintains its goals with quick and accurate information and is considered one of the official information channels, verifiable against false information on social networks.
