In his speech, Mr. Le Minh Tuan, Director of the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism of Quang Tri province, affirmed that right after the August Revolution in 1945, the Quang Tri cultural and information force was formed and accompanied the nation's long-term resistance war. The cultural cadres of that time did not fear danger, stayed in the village, stayed in the battlefield, brought songs, movies, books and newspapers to the soldiers and people, contributing to creating the spiritual strength of "singing to drown out the sound of bombs". Many of them fell like real soldiers on the front line against the enemy.

According to Mr. Tuan, after the reunification, amidst the devastation, the Quang Tri Culture and Information team started to rebuild spiritual life, restore cultural institutions, and bring confidence to the people of the homeland. Since 1989, when the province was re-established, the sector has continued to transform strongly, especially since 2008 when it merged into the Department of Culture - Sports - Tourism and recently took over the fields of journalism and publishing.
"In the context of the country's strong transformation, the Quang Tri Culture - Sports - Tourism sector is determined to continue to firmly adhere to the goal of "culture is the spiritual foundation of society", build a strong enough apparatus, preserve identity, serve the people and be worthy of the glorious tradition that previous generations have worked hard to cultivate", Mr. Tuan affirmed.
Mr. Le Duc Tien, Vice Chairman of Quang Tri Provincial People's Committee, said that in the context of merger, culture continues to play a special role in building the homeland.
