The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism has just issued Decision No. 2326 on announcing the list of national intangible cultural heritage for Nam Dinh pho folk knowledge.
Nam Dinh Pho meets the criteria
Nam Dinh Pho is a type of folk knowledge, fully meeting the criteria for national intangible cultural heritage.
Specifically, it is both representative and reflects the identity of the community and locality, and reflects cultural diversity and human creativity.
It is inherited through many generations; it is resilient, long-lasting and is agreed upon by the community, voluntarily nominated and committed to protection.
The Decision states that the Chairmen of People's Committees at all levels where there are intangible cultural heritages named in the above list, within the scope of their tasks and powers, shall carry out state management in accordance with the provisions of law on cultural heritage.
Previously, both Hanoi and Nam Dinh built dossiers to propose that the pho cooking profession in these two localities be a national intangible cultural heritage.
However, this list only includes Nam Dinh pho.
In addition to Nam Dinh pho, the folk knowledge of Quang noodles is also included in the list of national intangible cultural heritage this time.
Thus, up to now, in terms of cuisine, our country has a total of 4 national intangible cultural heritages including Nam Dinh pho, Quang noodles folk knowledge, Nam O fish sauce making, and Phu Quoc fish sauce making.
