Vietnam
highly valued UNICEF’s help in social and cultural development in the country,
National Assembly Vice Chairwoman Nguyen Thi Kim Ngan said.
Vice Chairwoman Ngan made the appraisal while
receiving UNICEF Chief Representative in Vietnam Lotta Sylwander in Hanoi on
Jan.
Ngan thanked UNICEF for its cooperation in
implementing policies on protection and care for Vietnamese children, stressing
that the cooperation effectively met Vietnam ’s demand for socio-economic
development in each period.
Ngan asked the two sides to expand cooperation
in the future to contribute more to Vietnam ’s development and raise the role
of the UN organisation.
The legislator expressed her wish that UNICEF
will assist Vietnam to build laws and examine the protection and implementation
of child rights.
Lotta Sylwander recognised Vietnam ’s efforts
in protection and care of children in Vietnam over the past years and said that
in the circumstance of decreased capital for development in the world, UNICEF
and other UN organisations will focus on policy consultancy and raising
capacity for Vietnamese partners, including Party, parliamentary and
governmental agencies and mass organisations.
She stressed that UNICEF will actively
contribute to reducing the child poverty rate and increase access to essential
social services like healthcare, safe water and education, especially in rural
areas and areas of ethnic minority people.
She also said that UNICEF will help Vietnam to
complete a system to research and examine activities to protect and care for
children.
