11. Summary of the new findings of the thesis:

The thesis is the first scientific work in Vietnam to study Singapore's multicultural policy focusing on three aspects of religion, language and education on key issues such as theoretical foundations and practices forming the policies; content (objectives, principles), implementation process of the policies; results and impacts, characteristics and policy links with the ruling party; providing some suggestions for Vietnam in developing cultural policies in the field of language and education.

12. Practical applicability, if any:

- As a systematic study of Singapore's multicultural policy in the fields of religion, language and education, the thesis is a reference material for Southeast Asian doing research and teaching, international studies and culturology.

- In the context that ethnic conflicts continue to spread in all parts of the world, the relations among ethnic groups need to be paid special attention for peace and stability; thus the research on multicultural policies conducted effectively by Singapore in managing its multi-ethnic, multilingual, and multi-religious society will provide useful references for multicultural countries.

- Through the systematization and analysis of Singapore's multicultural policies, showing  the consistency in the nature and principles of policy implementation (through policy features), consistency in key management multicultural policies, and the close connection of policies with ideology of the ruling party will help cultural policymakers have more suggestions in building, innovating and makingcultural policies of Vietnam; more facilities and experience in making guidelines and policies suitable to the country's reality.

- In addition, studying the multicultural policy of Singapore also strengthens the relationship and promotes mutual understanding between Vietnam - Singapore in particular and Vietnam with Southeast Asia in general.

13. Further research direction, if any:

- Singapore's multicultural policy in the future

- Carrying out scientific research projects at all levels related to Singapore's multicultural policy.

- Singapore’s relationship with other countries in Southeast Asia and Singapore's relationship with Vietnam.
