 In July 2018, the government suspended the newspaper from publishing online for 3 months and fined it 220 million VND.The disciplinary action came after the newspaper published an article on June 19, 2018 quoting President Trần Đại Quang agreeing with the need for a new law regarding protests and left in place a reader's comment in another article published back on May 26, 2017 that was deemed to be "splitting national unity" by the Press Authority.The Press Authority determined that the content of the article quoting the President was "untrue" and "caused severe impact".
