(HBO) – Various cultural and art activities extolling the Communist Party of Vietnam and the new spring were organised in many localities of Tan Lac district in the northern province of Hoa Binh, creating a joyful feeling for local people in the first days of the Lunar New Year.
Art teams
perform at the 2018 Muong Bi festival.
Deputy
Director of the Tan Lac District Culture - Sports Centre Nguyen Thanh Tra said
that the Culture - Sports office under the centre has devised communications
plans ahead of the 2018 Lunar New Year (Tet) in accordance with instructions issued
by the local People’s Committee.
Preparations
for those activities were carried out before, during and after Tet.
Dissemination of information was launched through many forms, including
posters, art performances and sport events, in order to create an exciting
atmosphere and strengthen national unity, as well as seek for approval of
people for policies of the Party and the State.
Especially,
an event was held at the communal house on the last day of the Year of the
Rooster by the centre, featuring nearly 20 performances that were thoroughly set
up. In addition, on the first days of the new lunar year, cultural - sports
events and folk games were held in all localities of the district, attracting
many local people and contributing to the preservation of traditional values.
Local
artistic performances have been widespread in Tan Lac district. To date, all
localities have their own art troupes and clubs. Most of the teams have between
15-25 members who share the same interest for singing, dancing and folk
culture. During festivals, local people are immersed in practice and performances,
regardless of gender and age. The lively atmosphere could be found everywhere and
people enthusiastically prepared for their parts. Visitors could be lost in
melodies which mingled with the unique sound of this place’s mountains and
forests.
The performances also
disseminated policies and regulations of the Party and the State through
contents of songs and plays. Whether they are remade or original works, the
performances are very alluring since they are voices from the local people’s
hearts that extol the country and their work. Cultural activities have awaken
the local people’s artistic abilities and made their life more diverse.
With an increasingly vibrant and widespread emulation movement aimed at building cultured residential areas and cultured families, Yen Thuy District has been making steady progress toward improving both the material and spiritual well-being of its people, while fostering a civilized, prosperous, beautiful, and progressive community.
Once lacking recreational spaces and community facilities, Residential Group 2 in Quynh Lam Ward (Hoa Binh City) has recently received attention for the construction of a new, spacious, and fully equipped cultural house. The project followed the model of state support combined with public contributions in both labor and funding.
The "All people unite to build cultural life" movement, which has been effectively integrated with Kim Boi district’s socio-economic development goals, is fostering a lively spirit of emulation across local residential areas, hamlets, villages, public agencies, and enterprises. In addition, through the initiative, traditional cultural values are being preserved and promoted, while community solidarity and mutual support in poverty reduction and economic development are being strengthened.
A working delegation of the Hoa Binh provincial People’s Committee led by its Permanent Vice Chairman Nguyen Van Toan on June 11 inspected the progress of a project to build the Mo Muong Cultural Heritage Conservation Space linked to tourism services in Hop Phong commune, Cao Phong district.
Born and growing in the heroic land of Muong Dong, Dinh Thi Kieu Dung, a resident in Bo town of Kim Boi district, in her childhood was nurtured by the sweet lullabies of her grandmother and mother. These melodies deeply imprinted on her soul, becoming an inseparable part of her love for her ethnic group's culture. For over 20 years, this love for her hometown has driven Dung to research, collect, and pass down the cultural values of the Muong people to future generations.
In the final days of May, the Ethnic Art Troupe of Hoa Binh Province organized performances to serve the people in remote, mountainous, and particularly disadvantaged areas within the province. These were not just ordinary artistic shows, but they were the meaningful journeys aimed at spreading cultural values, enhancing the spiritual life of the people and contributing to the preservation of ethnic minority cultural identities.
