With a sense of responsibility, local units are determined to put Resolution No. 18-NQ/TU dated December 22, 2023 of the Provincial Party Committee on Building and developing Ha Tinh culture and people in the new period into practice with many specific action programs.
Mr. Phan Tan Linh - Secretary of Nghi Xuan District Party Committee: Multiplying endogenous strength in a land rich in cultural potential.
Nghi Xuan is located at the northern gateway of Ha Tinh province, a land rich in cultural sediments with 83 provincial relics, 8 national relics and 1 special national relic; possessing intangible cultural heritages such as: ca tru, folk songs, Nghe Tinh Giam, Kieu plays, hat van... In particular, Co Dam ca tru is one of the cradles of ca tru in the whole country - an art form that has been listed by UNESCO as needing urgent protection.
In 2018, Nghi Xuan was the first district in Ha Tinh to achieve the NTM standard; in 2019, the project of a model NTM district, typical of culture associated with tourism development, was built and in 2020, the Prime Minister approved the pilot project of a NTM province in Ha Tinh province. Up to now, Nghi Xuan has had 8/15 communes meeting the advanced NTM standard, of which 2 communes have met the model NTM standard, 85/149 model NTM residential areas.
The rural appearance is changing rapidly, the material and spiritual life of the people is significantly improved. Along with socio-economic development, Nghi Xuan always focuses on preserving and promoting tangible and intangible cultural values associated with building the cultural identity of Nghi Xuan people. Strongly developing types of tourism such as: culture, beliefs, ecology, resort... on the basis of promoting traditional cultural values, green - clean - beautiful - safe rural landscape. Step by step comprehensively developing Nghi Xuan culture, civilized, elegant, rich in identity, meeting the requirements of integration and sustainable development, making Nghi Xuan an attractive destination.

Resolution No. 18 was issued with many specific and practical goals, tasks and solutions, which have become the driving force and added strength for the Party Committee, government and people of Nghi Xuan to continue to affirm the direction and approach, while opening up many opportunities for the next steps of local development.
In order to bring the resolution into practice, Nghi Xuan will focus on promoting propaganda and raising awareness among cadres, party members and people of all walks of life about the role and value of the cultural sector; doing a good job of forecasting the situation; promoting dynamism, sensitivity, creativity, initiative and determination in management, operation and organization of task implementation. At the same time, continue to promote the management and exploitation of the relic system; strengthen cultural promotion to introduce local cultural traditions; focus on developing tourism by creating attractive products based on local cultural values.
Regularly inspect and guide activities at relics, promptly correct violations, especially in restoration, embellishment, management of collection and use of donation money; pay attention to mobilizing resources for restoration, embellishment, digitization of historical and cultural relics, scenic spots, preservation of traditional craft villages...
Mr. Tran Phi Cong - Deputy Director of Ha Tinh Museum: Fostering pride in the homeland's cultural heritage
Over the past time, Ha Tinh Museum has collected and preserved more than 13,000 valuable artifacts and documents; many of which are national treasures and UNESCO-recognized heritages. At the same time, we have also actively promoted heritage through exhibitions, thematic exhibitions, and mobile exhibitions at celebrations and events in the province and the whole country; published publications in book form and on digital technology platforms; organized scientific seminars and research topics on tangible and intangible cultural heritages, documents, etc.
The activities have brought many results. However, in the current context, Ha Tinh Museum has not been built separately, which limits the implementation of its functions and has not fully promoted the role of a provincial institution.
Resolution No. 18 sets out specific goals, tasks and solutions to promote the development of the cultural and human sectors commensurate with the potential of the homeland of Hong Mountain - La River. The Resolution has mentioned and demonstrated determination in the solutions to issue policies and mechanisms, mobilize and effectively use resources to build and develop the culture and people of Ha Tinh, including the completion of the construction of the Provincial Museum. This is the basis for us to further promote the role and functions of the unit.
In parallel with annual implementation plans such as: collecting, scientific research, organizing thematic exhibitions "The life and career of General Secretary Tran Phu" on the occasion of the 120th anniversary of his birth, "The life and career of Hai Thuong Lan Ong Le Huu Trac" on the occasion of the 300th anniversary of his birth and UNESCO recognition..., Ha Tinh Museum has also planned to promote more widely and effectively the cultural heritages of the homeland. In particular, we focus on promoting and introducing 3 documentary heritages recognized by UNESCO: Phuc Giang School Woodblocks, Hoang Hoa Su Trinh Do, Han Nom Documents of Truong Luu Village and other heritages.
Visitors view the Exhibition of Historical and Cultural Relics and Typical Landscapes of Can Loc District, organized by Ha Tinh Museum in coordination with the Management Board of Huong Tich Pagoda Tourist Area in early 2024.
We are developing a plan to display and introduce the cultural heritage of Truong Luu village at the Temple of Literature (Hanoi) with many images, text introducing the heritage, original artifacts and supporting scientific documents in the coming time. After the plan to implement Resolution No. 18 is issued, the Provincial Museum will propose to the competent authorities a project to digitize the documents and artifacts being preserved to serve the promotion, exploitation of documents, restoration of documents... Thereby contributing to further spreading the heritage values of Hong Mountain - La River.
Mr. Ho Viet Anh - Chairman of Ha Tinh Tourism Association: "A boost" for Ha Tinh tourism to develop.
Ha Tinh is one of the provinces and cities with rich cultural potential in the country. Among the 7 Vietnamese celebrities honored by UNESCO, Ha Tinh has 2 people with 2 unique and different aspects. They are the Great Poet Nguyen Du in the field of literature and Hai Thuong Lan Ong Le Huu Trac in medicine. In addition, there are many famous celebrities in the country through the ages...
The system of historical and cultural relics, tangible and intangible heritages is diverse and rich in value. Each region of the Hong Mountain - La River also contains many unique traditional cultural values, with its own identity. All are resources and treasures to create attractive tourism products, compatible with the modern trends of the world, attracting tourists.
Mr. Ho Viet Anh - Chairman of Ha Tinh Tourism Association.
Developing tourism is closely linked to promoting the values of the homeland's cultural heritage. And vice versa, from tourism, spreading the beauty of Ha Tinh's traditional culture to all regions, as proposed in the solution of Resolution No. 18, in my opinion, is correct and appropriate.
In recent times, tourism products based on existing traditional cultural values have been built to contribute to cultural development. However, the results achieved are only initial, there are not many outstanding products, and the potential and strengths of the homeland have not been fully exploited to attract tourists widely. Resolution No. 18 was issued with many specific goals, tasks and solutions, including the solution: creating and developing unique cultural and tourism products and services as a "push" for Ha Tinh tourism to continue to develop sustainably in the coming time.

After Resolution No. 18 was issued, Ha Tinh Tourism Association proactively started to develop many plans to work with all levels, sectors, localities and units to resolutely implement the contents effectively.
In particular, the association will advise and coordinate with the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism to strengthen the organization of competitions to improve capacity and cultural behavior in the tourism environment, showing the cultural beauty and people of Ha Tinh to tourists from near and far. The association has been and is continuing to advise localities and units to build unique tourism products suitable for the 4.0 trend, carrying community identity, exploiting the cultural values of relics, famous places, famous people... At the same time, we will also strengthen coordination with units to promote the culture of our homeland through attractive tourism products that have been built.
Mr. Pham Xuan An - cultural officer of Huong Minh commune (Vu Quang): We need to pay more attention and invest in cultural development at the grassroots level.
In recent years, cultural work in Huong Minh has seen many improvements. Cultural, artistic and sports movements have developed quite well, many villages have established folk dance clubs, folk songs, football and volleyball teams. Village cultural houses have been invested in building or repairing. Local people and children have also actively donated and supported facilities for village cultural houses. Most residential areas have well implemented village covenants and conventions, actively building cultural residential areas. In 2023, the whole commune had 8/8 villages achieving cultural villages, 682 households achieving cultural families (accounting for 93.8%); 32 households achieving typical cultural families.
Mr. Pham Xuan An - cultural officer of Huong Minh commune (Vu Quang).
Civilized lifestyle in weddings and funerals in the locality has also become routine. The material and spiritual life of the people has been gradually improved. Schools in the area regularly organize activities to experience, learn, and educate about the historical and cultural values of the homeland...
However, at present, the awareness of some local people is still limited, taking cultural issues lightly; investment in this field has not been focused on, and the direction has not been really resolute. The movement "All people unite to build a cultural life in residential areas" still lacks depth. Cultural, artistic and sports activities are carried out seasonally, not regularly, and have not aroused the movement among the whole population. Awareness of culture, the task of building and developing culture and movements of some sectors, unions, and Party committees are not adequate, and the organization and implementation have many limitations.
In addition, although the need to build cultural institutions is increasing, the limited budget makes it difficult to implement cultural policies. Policies on training, fostering and rewarding cadres working in grassroots cultural work have received attention but are not significant.

As a cultural officer in a mountainous commune, in my opinion, to further develop culture in mountainous areas in particular, the whole province in general needs to pay attention to and foster professional qualifications for officers working in cultural work at the grassroots level. Call for, invest in, and attract resources to develop culture in parallel with economic development. Organizing cultural activities needs to be more substantial and sustainable, arousing the spirit of culture and arts in the people. In addition, it is necessary to increase investment in cultural activities and build related cultural institutions.
