Construction Newspaper judges the final round of the writing contest on 'Green Construction in Vietnam'

Speaking at the meeting, Mr. Nguyen Anh Dung, Editor-in-Chief of Construction Newspaper, Chairman of the Judging Council, said: “When I was assigned by the leaders of the Ministry of Construction to organize the press contest on Green Buildings in Vietnam, I realized that this is a special contest. This contest not only creates press works with great influence but also guides public opinion, contributing to the development of many urban areas and green buildings in line with the trend of international integration”.

Mr. Nguyen Anh Dung also emphasized: “Writing about green buildings is not simple, because each green building must meet many criteria set by the Ministry of Construction. Therefore, the entries need to adhere to these criteria, combining journalistic quality and high scientific accuracy, in order to convey the message and orientation of the construction industry to domestic and foreign investors.”

The Editor-in-Chief of Construction Newspaper also requested the Organizing Committee to work effectively, impartially and seriously to find the most outstanding works to be honored at the upcoming Green Building Week in Hanoi .

During the launching period from August 7, 2024 to September 20, 2024, the contest attracted many articles and series of articles from many authors, most of which met the rules. Many high-quality articles, demonstrating elaborate investment and rich content from policies to practices, attracted the participation of press agencies such as: Nhan Dan Newspaper, Lao Dong Newspaper, Vietnam Law Newspaper, Investment Newspaper, World and Vietnam Newspaper... and many other specialized magazines. The preliminary council independently assessed and selected 20 qualified works to advance to the final round.
