Voice of Vietnam
The Voice of Vietnam is the Vietnamese national radio broadcaster.
The first Vietnamese-language radio transmission was made on 2 September 1945, when the President Ho Chi Minh read out the Proclamation of Independence of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam.
As of 2004, it was estimated that VOV programs reached more than 90% of all households in Vietnam.History
Prior to 1945, the Vietnamese were banned from owning radio receivers, and broadcasting was under control of the French colonial government, which established the first radio station in Vietnam, Radio Saigon, in the late 1920s.
Vietnam's national radio station, now called the Voice of Vietnam, started broadcasting from Hanoi just a week after the declaration of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam with the declaration "This is the Voice of Vietnam, broadcasting from Hanoi, the capital of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam." During the Vietnam War, Radio Hanoi operated as a propaganda tool of North Vietnam. In August 1968, Voice of Vietnam commenced shortwave broadcasts for Vietnamese living abroad.
South Vietnam set up its own network in Saigon in 1955.
Following Reunification, all of the radio stations were combined into the Voice of Vietnam, which became the national radio station in 1978.Station
