2. Reasons for choosing thesis
During the renovation work carried out in accordance
with the country’s target rich people, strong country,
democratic, fair and civilized, our Party has identified
economic development as the focus, the party is a key building,
culture must be put on balance with economy, politics, society
and human oriented building with personality, good lifestyle.
However, the negative impact of the rise in the economy and
the socialistoriented market opening process, international
integration have made cultural social environment has
expressed hybrid, unhealthy impacts to the human. Besides, the
sabotage of the reactionary, hostile forces, through strategy
"peaceful evolution" as well as lifestyle alienation of many
cadres, Party members and the younger generation. In society,
many expressions of lifestyles alien to the moral, national
traditions appear and grow. In fact, the currency has dominated
many relationships, including relationships traditionally always
2
appreciate and cannot buy with money. Many young people
today are displaying irresponsibility, lack of ambition, ideal
faint, indifferent to community, personal selfishness, not
interested in political issues, turn back to the fine values of
traditional culture of the community. Resolution of the Ninth
Central Committee of the Party session XI clearly showed:
Compared to the achievements in the fields of politics,
economy, defense, security, foreign policy, achievements in the
field of culture is not similar; not enough to impact effectively
in building human and healthy cultural environment. The
recession of political ideology, ethics and lifestyle within the
Party and in society has a tendency to increase. That has put the
request in developing Vietnam’s human culture lifestyle is
becoming more important and urgent.
Learners in Vietnam People's Army officer training
schools who were selected tightly through military entrance
examinations and are learning cultural lifestyle will help them
acutely aware of the value of politics, culture and humanities,
progress on the basis of Marxism Leninism and Ho Chi
Minh’s thoughts and the Communist Party of Vietnam, as the
basis for the right choice of life’s value, improve the quality of
learning activities, training and living, working and
communication behaviors, attitudes, relentless drive to
perfection personified; while struggling with the wrong
cognitive and behaviors in society nowadays.
Recognizing this problem, the officer training schools
of VPA has seriously confirmed and conducted operations
efficiently in building cultural lifestyle of students,
contributing to improving the overall quality of education and
training. However, the awareness of a number of officials and
staffs in building cultural lifestyle of students still incomplete,
since it fails to promote good role, responsibility and
exemplary participation. Some participants in the process of
education and training are only interested in raising the level
of knowledge, skills, work, not give due attention to the
cultivation and training of cultural lifestyle. Particularly,
students also live pragmatic behavior, dishonest, unfair, or
violating state law, military discipline and other social evils.
The task of building the revolutionary People's Army,
regular, elite and modern in steps requires officer training
schools must constantly innovate strong work in education
and training in order to build a team of officers does not only
have the political stability, qualified extensive expertise but
3

culture. Later, they will be the core force in organizational
leadership activities, management, command and educational
