The venue serves as an open public space where local officials, Party members and residents can learn about and promote President Ho Chi Minh's thought, ethics and lifestyle.

The facility also serves as a repository of President Ho Chi Minh's cultural legacy and as a "red address" for educating younger generations and the public about Vietnam's revolutionary traditions.

Local authorities said the project helps implement the Politburo's Resolution No. 80 and advances Ho Chi Minh City's vision of a citywide Ho Chi Minh Cultural Space.

Nguyen Viet Que Son, Secretary of the Binh Hung Hoa Ward Party Committee and Chairman of the ward People's Council, said that the cultural space and the ward's historical and cultural facilities would help foster a healthy cultural environment, enrich residents' spiritual life, and inspire patriotism and aspirations for development.

The project was funded with nearly VND2.5 billion (US$95,000) in contributions from more than 6,000 officials, Party members, organizations and residents.
