In his remarks, Nguyen Phi Long, Secretary of
the provincial Party Committee and head of the steering committee, said under
the Government and province’s directions, the project on preserving and
promoting the values of the Muong ethnic culture and the Hoa Binh Civilisation
in the 2023 - 2030 period has been carried out methodologically. The
establishment of the steering committee is important to carrying out concrete
tasks.
He underlined the viewpoint that upholding
cultural values is to serve tourism development, people are the main
stakeholders in cultural value preservation and promotion, the preservation and
promotion of good values must be carried out at the same time with eradicating
backward customs, and the values of the Muong culture and the Hoa Binh
Civilisation should be turned into development resources.
The official affirmed that preserving and
promoting cultural values are a long-term task, so members of the steering
committee, sectors, and localities need to build detailed implementation plans.
The advisory group needs to include people with profound knowledge and rich
experience from central agencies and localities, artisans, along with
prestigious persons. Besides, it is necessary to devise appropriate mechanisms
and policies for implementing the project.
