Act as the Bureau of PublicInformation, Cultural Affairs Bureauunder the Education Department,and the Tourism Contribution Bureauunder the jurisdiction of the Ministryof Transportation, as founded onOctober 2, 1961.
The communications and cultural artdivisions were merged, and with thatthe Ministry of Culture and PublicInformation was born on July 24, 1968.
This measure was reversed on January3, 1990 as the information division wasseparated, whereupon the Ministry ofCulture was born.
Following the revision of the National
Government Organization Act onMarch 6, 1993, the Ministry of Cultureand the Ministry of Youth and Sports
were merged into the Ministry ofCulture and Sports. The Ministrytook over the Tourist Bureau fromthe Ministry of Transportation, and
when the peoples government waslaunched on February 28, 1998, it wasreorganized as the Ministry of Cultureand Tourism, thereby becoming the
core administrative body in charge ofculture and tourism-related policies.
Further revision was adopted onFebruary 2008, merging the digitalcontent responsibilities once underthe management of the Ministry ofInformation and Communication, andthe Government Information Agencyspromotional activities became part ofthe newly-formed Ministry of Culture,
