Overview
In mid‑July, Vietnamese officials announced that the cultural sector would serve as a new engine for the country's economic growth. The statement signaled a shift toward treating culture not merely as heritage but as a commercial driver.
Later that month, the 3rd plenary session of the 14th Central Committee of the Communist Party of Vietnam detailed a comprehensive strategy. General Secretary and President To Lam framed culture as a core internal force for sustainable development, identifying four gaps and three major shifts that artists and cultural enterprises must address. The plan calls for converting artistic works into distinctive cultural goods for export while preserving national pride, and it emphasizes building a disciplined, safe, civilized, and harmonious society to strengthen the cultural industry both domestically and abroad.
