Inner strength

TP - Culture has recently been mentioned not for the sake of "showing off." Cultural development is being positioned more fairly and appropriately, seen as an endogenous driving force for socio-economic development.

For a field that is both broad and requires depth and long-term accumulation and development, breakthroughs in development cannot be achieved through short-sighted thinking or encouraging slogans.

The parliamentary session heated up with discussions on several mechanisms and policies for the development of Vietnamese culture. Resolution 80 of the Politburo on the development of Vietnamese culture is not the first resolution on building and developing culture, but it plays a crucial role in shaping the path of national cultural development in the new era. Addressing policy bottlenecks and obstacles, and effectively mobilizing and utilizing all resources are the two main pillars clearly stated in this important document.

The frank, accurate, and insightful discussions reflect a fundamental shift in thinking about a sector that has long been considered merely a "spending spree." The minimum 2% of the total budget allocated to culture can be seen as a significant step forward after many years.

However, this is "correct but not sufficient," because what is more important is how to structure spending to achieve effectiveness. The cultural value created is measured by the percentage contribution to GDP, and is also assessed in terms of spiritual value and national brand value. Investment resources for culture are still modest, therefore, the problem of effective spending becomes one of the most fundamental requirements.

Cultural industry - An inherent strengthCulture is an intrinsic strength that shapes the soul, spirit, and character of the Vietnamese people. The beautiful values ​​and unique cultural traditions are continuously preserved and promoted by generations of Vietnamese people, elevating them to new heights.

Beyond financial resources, the development of culture faces an inherent bottleneck: human resources. While many fields have specific metrics to recognize achievements in training and attracting talent, culture is one of the areas that struggles. Talent in the humanities requires not only intellectual stature and scientific acumen but also profound knowledge and a creative spirit that promotes values ​​without losing cultural identity.

In the context of streamlining the administrative apparatus, the earnest plea against merging traditional art forms is not unfounded. This choice should not be based on mechanical consolidation, but rather on the realities and unique values ​​of each art form. However, artists must also seriously consider how to guide traditional art onto a new path of development, instead of relying solely on government funding.

The initial momentum and achievements in fields such as film, music , and fashion have generated excitement, encouraging cultural and artistic professionals to enter the cultural industry, creating immense double value. Films with strong nationalistic themes generating hundreds of billions of dong in revenue, and national concerts attracting tens of thousands of viewers, are both positive signals and serious questions about investment resources and essential market standards. However, revenue and audience numbers are only the tip of the iceberg.

Ultimately, culture cannot develop through mere appeals or predetermined figures on paper. Culture will truly become an intrinsic force when resources are allocated appropriately, cultural workers change their mindset and are placed at the center of the process, and, most importantly, a healthy cultural environment is ensured by transparent and stable policies and institutions. Breakthroughs then cease to be merely objectives and become inevitable outcomes.
