Preserving and promoting national culture are always among a country’s top priorities playing an important role in fostering its economic growth, politics and society. To complete this task, a joint effort is needed.

Under the National Strategy for Cultural Development until 2030, culture must be positioned as high as economy, politics, and society. Promoting Vietnamese cultural values will motivate the country’s development in various aspects, especially in the tourism industry which reopened on March 15. After two years of hiatus due to the Covid-19 pandemic, Vietnam aims to attract 65 million local and foreign tourists to earn an estimate of 400 trillion VND which will be a leverage to revive the tourism industry.
