Vietnam makes laws to take care of people’s health

Vietnam has been building laws to mobilise resources for the country’s heathcare sector to perform effectively.

Vice Chairperson of the National Assembly Tong Thi Phong made the statement at the 6th annual conference of parliaments’ women leaders that took place in Berne , Switzerland for the first time on July 16.

The heath care sector has developed from local to central levels over the past decades, said Phong, while affirming Vietnam’s consistent policies to develop the economy in line with social equality and people’s heath care is one of the issues given top priority.

The two-day conference was hosted by the Swiss Parliament and the International Parliamentary Union (IPU).

The conference that drew the participation of 25 women leaders of parliaments in Asia, Europe and Africa discussed issues related to the protection of mothers and infants and the role of parliaments’ leaders as well as women legislators in this issue. – VOV
