The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism has just issued a document requesting a review and assessment of the current status of display, preservation, protection and measures to ensure security and safety for national treasures under its direct management.
Prevention of theft, fire, explosion, natural disasters, and destruction of national treasures
In the document, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism requested localities and ministries to direct the review and evaluation of the display and preservation of national treasures, security and safety plans, and risk response measures that have been implemented.
From there, continue to strengthen the work of protecting, preserving and promoting the value of national treasures. One of the things that needs to be done is to organize, develop, complete and promptly deploy protection plans for each national treasure.
It is important to note that there are measures to prevent theft, fire, explosion, natural disasters and other risks of damage to ensure absolute safety for national treasures.
For national treasures currently kept at relics or privately owned, specific protection plans must be developed.
When there are developments in reality that affect the work of protecting the absolute safety of national treasures, it is necessary to promptly and proactively report and inform the competent authority and relevant agencies.
Regarding preservation work, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism instructed that priority should be given to investment in renovating and upgrading works, technical infrastructure and specialized equipment for storage warehouses and areas displaying national treasures at museums and places where national treasures are kept at relics.
The preservation of national treasures must be made into a specific plan, ensuring scientific nature and compliance with legal regulations; the preservation process must strictly follow principles, procedures, and techniques, and at the same time have the coordination and guidance of scientists in related fields and preservation experts.
Displays of valuable antiques must be restricted or denied access.
The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism also provides guidance on ensuring safety for valuable relics and antiques at historical-cultural sites and scenic spots.
Accordingly, for valuable artifacts in relics that cannot be stored or displayed as replacements, it is necessary to ensure that visitors are limited or not allowed to directly access and impact the artifacts; regularly check and prevent agents that damage the artifacts; and periodically preserve and maintain the artifacts.
In case the artifact can be stored or replaced with a restored artifact, the storage plan must ensure that there is equipment to preserve the artifact; there is an anti-theft alarm; the location to protect the artifact is far from areas at risk of fire, explosion, or flooding; there is a surveillance camera connected to the organization or individual assigned to protect the artifact.
