History

- Hanoi Radio - Television Station was established on October 14, 1954, four days after the capital was liberated. A fixed radio station was installed at Thuy Ta Information and Exhibition House with simple technical facilities, laying the foundation for the later development of Hanoi Radio - Television Station.

In October 1977, celebrating the 23rd Capital Liberation Day and the station’s founding anniversary, Hanoi Radio broadcast its first radio program on AM (via Me Tri National Broadcasting Station). Since then, the voice of Hanoi Radio has been available not only in the city, but also all over the northern provinces and a part of the central region of Vietnam.

At 14:00 on January 1, 1979, the first Hanoi television program was broadcast on Vietnam Television with a new image and the familiar "Hanoi people" song used as intro music.

On August 25, 1989, the City People's Committee issued a decision to change the name of Hanoi Radio Station to Hanoi Radio and Television Station, recognizing the Station as the city's audio and video media outlet.[1]
