Increase investment in culture
Mr. Do Dinh Hong, Director of Hanoi Department of Culture and Sports, said that the three components of the cultural industry are: products, the issue of consuming cultural industry products, and then services to connect the market and with cultural industry products, which is something the Department is very interested in.
The development of Vietnam's cultural industries is based on the Party's guidelines and policies, the State's policies and laws, and is placed in the overall socio-economic development. This is to promote innovation, maximize cultural resources and Vietnamese people, create endogenous strength, and become an important driving force contributing to the building of an advanced Vietnamese culture with strong national identity and sustainable national development.
According to Associate Professor, Dr. Nguyen Thi Thu Phuong, Director of the Vietnam National Institute of Culture and Arts, the Strategy for the Development of Vietnam's Cultural Industries to 2020, with a vision to 2030, aims to have the revenue of cultural industries contribute 7% of GDP by 2030, so that culture is not only a "money-spending" industry but actually a "money-making" industry. However, after nearly 8 years of implementing the strategy, the cultural industry has not yet been regulated by legal documents, lacking legal policies to create a legal corridor for the development of this new, potential field, in which policies on resource mobilization play a key role.
Associate Professor, Dr. Nguyen Thi Thu Phuong said that developing cultural industries aims to exploit and promote the potential of Vietnamese culture, serving the socio-economic development and political stability of the country in the new era, making culture become the spiritual foundation of society, both the goal and the driving force for socio-economic development. Developing cultural industries requires a system of synchronous solutions in terms of policies, communications, human resource training and resources.
In addition, developing Vietnam's cultural industries on the basis of a comprehensive and systematic approach, including many interactive and closely related issues such as improving the quality of human resources with comprehensive skills in business, management, and creativity; building financial mechanisms, legal mechanisms, developing educational and training programs and working networks, developing the public...
These activities are holistic, requiring collaboration across different ministries and involving all public and private partners. A holistic strategic approach is needed, including reforms in education, skills, business support, branding, marketing and integration with other relevant sectors.
Associate Professor, Dr. Nguyen Thi Thu Phuong emphasized that the cultural industry in the new era needs to develop more strongly than in the previous period. To achieve this, it is necessary to specify the goals set out in the "Strategy for the development of Vietnam's cultural industries to 2030 with a vision to 2045".
But besides that, it requires changes or reforms in legal and institutional issues related to the development of cultural industries such as financial issues, investment in culture, labor and cultural human resources, tax on cultural products and services, development of cultural enterprises... This requires changes in the traditional perception of society as well as other ministries, sectors and local authorities about culture.
"The immediate task that needs to be done is the coordination between the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and relevant ministries and sectors, submitting to the Government for promulgation a Decree on corporate income tax incentives, land rent incentives for cultural enterprises as well as investment, sponsorship and donation laws to create conditions to attract investment capital and diverse resources from society for the cultural sector. The second task is to promulgate policies to support the transfer of public service units providing cultural services and products that need to be implemented more strongly than in the previous period," Associate Professor, Dr. Nguyen Thi Thu Phuong suggested.
According to Associate Professor, Dr. Nguyen Thi Thu Phuong, the investment and support from the State is not only in terms of financial resources but also in terms of measures to encourage creativity, sponsor artists and create conditions for cultural and artistic talents to maximize their abilities. Investment in culture is not only for art fields such as painting, music, cinema... but also to build an educational foundation, thereby nurturing cultural awareness for each person from an early age.
Incentive policies such as tax reduction for art organizations, creation of creative support funds, investment in building cultural facilities, public art centers... are important measures to help improve the cultural life of society, while creating motivation for artistic creativity to flourish.
"Increase investment in culture with a balance between market-oriented investment and public service subsidy-oriented investment. The State needs to invest in fundamental areas such as strengthening information and training infrastructure, legal support, credit, land and other incentive mechanisms to promote innovation and internal strength in production and distribution of cultural products and services, promoting cohesion and mutually beneficial interaction of the cultural ecosystem" - Associate Professor, Dr. Nguyen Thi Thu Phuong emphasized.
Besides, according to Associate Professor, Dr. Nguyen Thi Thu Phuong, the State needs to pay more attention and support the public and non-profit cultural service system, and cultural forms that are creative and have high artistic and social values./.
