At the same time, this is also a time to look back, evaluate and plan strategic steps in promoting the soft power of national culture, making the cultural industry a pillar of the creative economy and a driving force for sustainable development of Ho Chi Minh City in particular and the whole country in general.
Also according to journalist To Dinh Tuan, Ho Chi Minh City, as the leading economic and cultural center of the country, where tradition and modernity intersect, is making strong efforts to affirm its position as a leading city in developing the cultural industry. However, amid the wave of globalization and international competition, the question is: What must we do to have enough resources, especially high-quality human resources, to create cultural products with Vietnamese identity but capable of competing in the regional and international markets? Joint efforts are needed to solve this difficult problem.
