Up to now, the whole province has 2,600 relics that need to be restored and embellished; There are also long-standing unfinished and slow-progressing construction investment projects such as the Nghe An Museum project, Phung Chi Kien relic, Ho Tung Mau relic...

Regarding this, Director of the Department of Culture and Sports Ho Mau Thanh said: "The restoration of family heritage relics is done very well, but for communal relics such as village communal houses, it is very difficult to mobilize social resources, so the restoration and renovation work encounters many difficulties."

Some localities have not done a good job of managing and organizing festivals, and there are still signs of commercialization and violations of regulations on festival organization.

State management of cultural activities and cultural service businesses is still limited. Performing arts, advertising, festivals, and cultural service businesses in localities still have many violations that need to be handled.
