Minister of Culture, Sports, and Tourism Nguyen Van Hung presented an appraisal report on a proposal on investment policy for the national target program on cultural development for the 2025 - 2035 period at the 15th NA’s on-going seventh session on June 3.

The minister said that the program will be carried out throughout the nation and in some countries that have long-term cultural relationships and interactions with Vietnam, where a large number of Vietnamese people live, work, and study.

The three-phase program will focus on activities in the fields of culture and arts, especially cultural heritage, grassroots culture, performing arts, fine arts, photography, and exhibitions.

The program is expected to contribute to promoting socio-economic development; and preserving and upholding the value of the nation's unique cultural heritage.

It also enhances the country's position in the international arena through promoting "soft power” of the Vietnamese culture, international cultural integration, and absorbing the quintessence of human culture.

Chairman of the National Assembly (NA) Committee for Culture and Education Nguyen Dac Vinh stressed that the program will contribute to enhancing investment resources, meeting the urgent requirements for comprehensive human development and building an advanced culture imbued with national identity.

Regarding mechanisms and solutions for implementing the program, the committee suggested that it is necessary to specify the tasks, roadmap, and implementation progress for institutional improvement solutions, further clarify measures to mobilize resources, and clearly define certain priorities and tasks to attract social resources.-(VLLF)
