Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Lo Van Tien speaks at the meeting.

At the meeting, the Culture and Social Affairs Committee presented the draft Resolution on the investment policy for the Project. The Him Lam Resistance Center, located in the political , economic, cultural, and social heart of Dien Bien Phu city, has the potential to attract tourists. Phase I of the Him Lam Resistance Center has been completed and put into use; however, the project's investment has not been comprehensive and lacks a holistic focus. Investing in preservation and restoration will enhance its historical value, provide a high level of education about the nation's heroic patriotism, and meet the expectations of veterans and tourists.

Comrade Nguyen Quang Lam, Head of the Culture and Social Affairs Committee (Provincial People's Council), chaired the meeting.

The project is built on an area of ​​5,672.44 ^m² of land, within the boundaries of the Him Lam Resistance Historical Site. The project is consistent with the Dien Bien province planning for the period 2021-2030, with a vision to 2050; and is in line with the Dien Bien province's tourism development orientation to 2025, with a vision to 2030.

Representatives from the Department of Planning and Investment provided explanations and clarifications on several issues.

Representatives from various departments and agencies provided explanations and clarifications on several issues raised by the Culture and Social Affairs Committee, such as: Was the final settlement of completed Phase I project items in accordance with legal regulations?

Specifically, what were the sources of funding: central government budget, local government, and socialized capital; and the feasibility of disbursing funds for project implementation in the remaining period of 2023 and 2024…
