Cuban-Vietnamese brainstorm workshop focuses on communication

Havana, Sep 5 (Prensa Latina) Journalists from Cuba and Vietnam discussed in this capital on Thursday the ongoing transformation of their social communication models, emphasizing the development and consolidation of the democratic socialist system promoted by both nations.

Speaking at a seminar at the Association of Cuban Journalists (UPEC, in Spanish), its President Ricardo Ronquillo highlighted similarities in the ways the two countries confront media issues, which bring the two countries closer together in the goal of improving their respective communication systems.

Ronquillo stressed that Cuba and Vietnam coincide in currently promoting the transformation of social communication processes, as reflected by the recent passing in Havana and Hanoi of laws supporting the transparency and access to information, which in turn, makes it appropriate to promote actions consistent with the excellent bilateral ties.

Like Vietnam, Cuba is also facing media intoxication campaigns, which add up to a fierce blockade that limits or prevents access to certain platforms for the more than seven million citizens connected to the networks, UPEC First Vice President Rosa Miriam Elizalde told attendees.

Elizalde stated that Cuba cannot connect to the ARCOS-1 underwater fiber optic cable that links the Caribbean countries and passes only 32 kilometers from Havana, under the absurd pretext that Havana represents a threat to the United States’ cybersecurity.
