The prime minister has called for Vietnam Culture Day on November 24 to be linked with National Great Unity Day on November 18 through community activities. The instructions place residents at the centre as participants, creators and beneficiaries of cultural life.

Localities are asked to organise arts, food events, folk games, heritage teaching and exchanges suited to local conditions. Activities should be practical and avoid extravagance and waste. These are directions for upcoming events, rather than a report that the November programme has been completed.
