Nguyen Trong Nghia, Secretary of the Party Central Committee and Chairman of the Party Central Committee’s Commission for Information and Education, has delivered an important speech at a recent conference on the implementation of a plan to conserve and promote the values of the Muong ethnic group’s culture and the Hoa Binh Civilisation in Hoa Binh province.
In his remarks, the official said Hoa Binh is a
mountainous province serving as a gateway of Hanoi capital and the northwestern
region. It is also home to a large population of Muong people and also the
cradle of the Hoa Binh Civilisation.
Basing on the resolution of the 17th provincial
Party Congress, he noted, the provincial Party Committee’s Standing Board
issued a resolution on the conservation and promotion of the cultural heritage
values of ethnic groups in Hoa Binh for the 2021 - 2025 period, with orientations
towards 2030. The resolution identified focal tasks and breakthrough steps
needing to be performed to help carry out the Party Central Committee’s
relevant viewpoints and policies. In particular, the province launched a plan
on the conservation and promotion of the values of the Muong ethnic culture and
the Hoa Binh Civilisation for the 2023 - 2030 period.
Nghia lauded efforts and significant
achievements obtained by the Party organisation, administration, and people of
all ethnic groups in Hoa Binh in the recent past, especially those related to
cultural and human development.
He noted the plan on the conservation and
promotion of the values of the Muong ethnic culture and the Hoa Binh
Civilisation holds great significance. To fruitfully carry out this plan to
create momentum for local socio-economic development and help to successfully
implement the resolutions of the 17th provincial Party Congress and the 13th
National Party Congress, the province’s Party organisation, administration, and
people need to keep properly performing certain tasks in the time ahead.
First, the Commission Chairman said, they need
to thoroughly grasp President Ho Chi Minh’s thought and the Party’s viewpoint
on culture, enhance the Party’s leadership over the field, and closely connect
the plan with the Hoa Binh cultural and human development tasks.
Second, they need to pay due attention to better
ensuring the harmony between the conservation and promotion of cultural
heritage values during the implementation of this plan and the cultural and
human development tasks of Hoa Binh.
Third, it is necessary to keep reforming mindset
and improving the state management over culture, including the conservation and
promotion of cultural heritage values in the province.
Fourth, Nghia asked Hoa Binh to increase
resources for investing in the conservation and promotion of cultural heritage
values of local ethnic groups. And,
Fifth, he underlined the importance of active
cultural integration into the world and the development of culture for external
affairs. The province needs to continue bringing into play the values of Mo
Muong and the Hoa Binh Civilisation, two major cultural heritages, to compile
dossiers seeking UNESCO’s inclusion of these elements in the list of the
world’s cultural heritage.
The official said the conservation and promotion
of tangible and intangible cultural values of all ethnic groups play a pivotal
role in cultural and human development to meet the demand for fast and
sustainable development. It is an urgent and also strategic and long-term task.
He expressed his belief that the Party
organisation, administration, and people of local ethnic groups will make
significant breakthroughs in the implementation of the plan to uphold and bring
into play the values of the Muong ethnic group’s culture and the Hoa Binh
Civilisation, thereby contributing to fast and sustainable development in the
province.
