Transforming Education into a Driving Force for Ho Chi Minh City to Enter the “Era of National Ascent”

The “era of national ascent” represents a major policy of the Party, the State, and the people. This policy aims to achieve a prosperous population, a strong nation, and a socialist society comparable to global powers. Ho Chi Minh City serves as the largest economic, political, cultural, and educational center in the country. The City must establish an advanced, modern, and integrated educational system to fulfill its pioneering role in this “era of national ascent.” This system should position the City as a high-quality educational hub for both the nation and the Asian region. This paper defines the conceptual framework of educational integration, analyzes empirical development indicators, and addresses core challenges including resource constraints and regional disparities. Through strategic multi-stakeholder collaboration, these efforts will transform education into a driving force to propel the City into the future era of ascent.
