In western countries, the communication targeted to ethnic minorities is conducted by and for (1) immigrants, (2) ethnic minorities with regards to race, nation and language, (3) native communities of different size from small communities, families, small and medium enterprises to profit and non-profit multinational corporations. This communication includes information about their communities in the resident country, in their home country and it is either in their mother language or local language. The media exists in different forms from print to internet and is suitable to the size of the media organizations and the need for information by the communities. It is important to develop the theoretical and practical understanding of these minority groups in order to devise the policies for Vietnam.

Application of Ho Chi Minh’s thought on “taking the people as the root” in building the “people’s hearts and minds posture”, consolidating national defense, and firmly protecting socialist Vietnam in new period

Communist Review - President Ho Chi Minh’s thought on "taking the people as the root” had paramount significance, serving as the guiding star for the Communist Party of Vietnam to lead the revolution. This mindset inherited and promoted Vietnam’s thousand-year-old history of national construction and defense and the Marxist-Leninist perspective on the role of the people in history. It should continue to be creatively applied to the cause of national construction and defense in the new period.
