Speaking at the meeting, comrade Nguyen Thi Hong Hoa - Secretary of Nam Dan District Party Committee discussed a number of issues from local practice, thereby recognizing that despite many efforts, Nam Dan district still faces difficulties, especially in terms of resources for implementation, especially for investing in cultural institutions, organizing events and regular cultural activities at the grassroots level.

Comrade Nguyen Dinh Hung - Secretary of Con Cuong District Party Committee expressed his concern that the preservation and promotion of intangible cultural heritages still face many limitations and difficulties; at the same time, there is a reality that the good cultural features of our nation are gradually fading away among a part of the young people of ethnic minorities.

From that reality, the Secretary of the Con Cuong District Party Committee said that the district has issued a Resolution to widely propagate among the people, village elders, village chiefs, and prestigious people to build and promote the culture and people of ethnic minorities, especially in schools. Con Cuong District has also had solutions to eliminate backward customs and practices.

At the meeting, Director of Nghe An Department of Culture and Sports Tran Thi My Hanh also discussed the shortcomings in implementing the Resolution; thereby, proposing that the Provincial Party Executive Committee pay more attention to the issue of human resources and resources for culture; develop a cultural strategy for the period 2021 - 2025 and vision to 2030; issue cultural policies; build and communicate models and typical examples to spread cultural values; pay attention to building and perfecting cultural institutions; promote intangible cultural heritages.

According to comrade Thai Van Thanh - Director of Nghe An Department of Education and Training, it is necessary to identify the unique cultural pillars of Nghe An people; from there, "Nghe An-ize" the cultural values ​​of Nghe An people and spread them to the community, domestically and internationally, at the same time modernizing the culture of Nghe An people. After determining this, it is necessary to continue to have a strategy to develop Nghe An culture and people through building a vision, program, and plan for implementation.

Our Party requires that we must seriously grasp the viewpoint that “culture must be placed on par with economics, politics, and society”. The recent 13th National Party Congress affirmed: “Economic development is the center; Party building is the key; cultural development is the spiritual foundation; ensuring national defense and security is essential and regular”. The Resolution of the 19th Provincial Party Congress of Nghe An also clearly stated: “…Promoting the historical and cultural traditions, the people of Nghe An, the will to be self-reliant and the desire to rise up; proactively innovating and being creative, bringing Nghe An to develop quickly and sustainably…”.
