Luanda - The Minister of National Defence, Former Combatants and Veterans of the Fatherland, João Ernesto dos Santos 'Liberdade', on Wednesday congratulated the Angola Press Agency (ANGOP) on the occasion of the 49th anniversary, celebrated on 30th of October.
In a congratulatory note sent to ANGOP, the minister considers that the celebration of this anniversary takes place at a time when the agency is increasingly evident in the technical and technological modernization of its means.
It states that the commitment to technical and technological modernization is a prerequisite that makes it possible to boost its services throughout the national territory and beyond, configuring a greater informative coverage, responsibility and professionalism committed to the provision of a public service of quality and loyalty.
“Thus, to the management, journalists, technicians, collaborators at the service of the Angola Press-ANGOP Agency, I wish you good health and redoubled success in the performance of your noble mission of informing, training and entertaining the reading public, with wishes extended to their respective families”.
Angola Press Agency, abbreviated as ANGOP, is a public news company in the country, which aims to collect, process and distribute, on an exclusive basis, both in Angola and abroad, news based on objective information on national and international news.
ANGOP was created in July 1975, under the name of Agência Nacional Angola Press (ANAP).
At first, his works were distributed in the form of a printed bulletin, until, on October 30 of the same year, he launched his first telegraphic dispatch.
In 1991 he opted for the broadcast of his work 24 hours a day and also introduced innovations in the editorial and technical plans. ART/DOJ
