Renaissance, development of national culture
Mr. Le Hai Binh, Permanent Deputy Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism, affirmed that the press plays a very important role in promoting the development of cultural industries, both from the perspective of the press itself and from the perspective of the press as a bridge and catalyst with cultural industries.
At the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century, cultural industry and creative industry have emerged as a star, an economic bright spot, a special opportunity for countries with advantages, foundations, and rich cultural treasures to rise from culture, through culture.
Vietnam is a country with full potential to develop cultural industry. In 2014, for the first time, Resolution 33-NQ/TW of the Party Central Committee mentioned national soft power and cultural industry. Next, the Strategy for developing Vietnam's cultural industry to 2020, with a vision to 2030, set a target that by 2030, the revenue of cultural industries will contribute 7% of GDP, so that culture is not only a "spending money" industry but actually a "making money" industry.
According to Mr. Le Hai Binh, to confidently enter the era of national growth, at the 9th National Press Award on Party Building - Golden Hammer and Sickle Award, General Secretary To Lam emphasized that the new era is opening up a bright future for the nation. The new era also sets new and higher requirements for revolutionary journalism, requiring the press to develop accordingly, grow with the nation, and be worthy of professional, humane, and modern journalism.
To realize the role of the press as a driving force, bridge, conductor, and companion for cultural industries in the new era, Mr. Le Hai Binh hopes that press agencies will continue to proactively innovate in both content and form, strongly apply science and technology, digital transformation to spread stories of innovation and creativity, honor initiatives and typical examples in the economic and cultural fields.
At the same time, press agencies strengthen interdisciplinary cooperation, closely link with creative and artistic establishments in promoting products, building national and international cultural brands; provide accurate, humane information, orient aesthetics and arouse pride in Vietnamese identity.
Press agencies firmly protect the national cultural foundation in the flow of innovation and international integration; focus on training and fostering a team of reporters, editors and journalists with strong political will, high professional qualifications, deep understanding of culture, art and creativity, and the ability to inspire and motivate the development of cultural industries.
In the series of Forum events, there are also sideline activities such as: Photo and video exhibition "Happy Vietnam" organized by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism; Photo and document exhibition on the theme "Culture and Cultural Industry of Hai Phong City" organized by the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism of Hai Phong.
On this occasion, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism awarded Certificates of Merit to 15 press agencies and units under press agencies that have achieved achievements in promoting culture, sports and tourism in the 2023-2024 period./.
