VTV10

VTV10 is the national television channel for the Southwest region of Vietnam Television, serving audiences in the Mekong Delta and Vietnamese audiences interested in this region. VTV10's programs span various genres: political commentary, science and education, sports, culture and entertainment, dramas, and advertising. In addition, VTV10 produces and collaborate with other units of Vietnam Television to broadcast live events in the Southwest region on VTV channels. The predecessor of VTV10 was the regional television channel VTV Can Tho, formerly part of the regional channel system of Vietnam Television with two channels, VTV Can Tho 1 and VTV Can Tho 2, managed by the Vietnam Television Center in Can Tho City. From January 1, 2016, VTV Can Tho 1 ceased broadcasting and merged with the regional channel VTV9 to form the national television channel VTV9, targeting audiences throughout the Southern region. Meanwhile, VTV Can Tho 2 was transformed into VTV5 Southwest to serve the Khmer ethnic community in Vietnam. On 8 September 2022, according to Decree No. 60/2022/ND-CP on restructuring affiliated units of Vietnam Television, the Vietnam Television Center in the Southern region was split to re-establish the Vietnam Television Center in Ho Chi Minh City and establish the Vietnam Television Center in the Southwest region. At 05:30 on 10 October 2022, VTV Can Tho was re-broadcast after 6 years of stopping broadcasting, replacing the previous VTV6. Beginning at 00:00 on 30 March 2026, to improve the quality for audience services and reposition nation promotion channels, VTV Can Tho was renamed to VTV10.
