The artists also engaged in lively discussions about enhancing the role of music, the responsibility of artists in contributing to building a better spiritual life for the people, embodying the values ​​of truth, goodness, and beauty, and how musical works contribute to shaping human character.

According to Ms. Dinh Thi Thanh Thuy, Deputy Head of the Propaganda and Mass Mobilization Department of the Ho Chi Minh City Party Committee, the program has helped connect generations of artists, helping them understand their profession and each other better; providing artists with experiences to learn from each other, and small joys with colleagues when they "shed their roles"—no longer famous singers, but fellow colleagues who walk together, listen together, and share together.

Ms. Dinh Thi Thanh Thuy, Deputy Head of the Propaganda and Mass Mobilization Department of the Ho Chi Minh City Party Committee, shared this at the thematic discussion session.

The Propaganda and Mass Mobilization Department of the Ho Chi Minh City Party Committee always appreciates and hopes that its members will contribute their talents to society by creating meaningful and valuable works. These are works that help people live better lives, contributing to the formation of human character, always striving for what is good, beautiful, virtuous, and civilized, compassionate, and ethical.
