Described as "pro-reformist" by the BBC, the newspaper has run into trouble with the communist authorities several times. In May 1991, its editor in chief was sacked when the paper ran an article trepidly acknowledging Ho Chi Minh's early marriage to Zeng Xueming. Ms. :vi:Vũ Kim Hạnh, Vu Kim Hanh, former Tuoi Tre Newspaper's editorial direction, was dismissed. In 2000, it commissioned a survey among youths in Ho Chi Minh City which found that Bill Gates was more admired than Ho Chi Minh. This resulted in the published copies being destroyed by state censors and three editors sanctioned. In 2005, the newspaper published a series of investigative articles about the monopolization of the pharmaceutical market by Zuellig Pharma. The reporter, Lan Anh, was subsequently dismissed. 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 of Vietnam, President Trần Đại Quang agreeing with the need for a new freedom of assembly, law regarding protests. It left in place a reader's comment, in another article previously published on May 26, 2017, that was deemed by the Press Authority to be "splitting national unity". The Press Authority determined that the content of the article quoting the President was "untrue" and "caused severe impact".See also
