“I expect that every doctor will continue to promote the results that have been achieved, make unremitting efforts, continue to overcome challenges and limitations in diagnosing and treating diseases, improve their profession, master modern science and technology, and train the next generation for the health sector," said Mr. Thuong. 
He added that with medical ethics, intelligence, talent and great aspirations, the Vietnamese medical force can set new visions and higher goals, strive to put the Vietnamese health sector in the top group of regional countries, and reach out to the world, and contribute to solving global health problems.
The organizing board gave awards to 15 entries in the final round of the sixth “Silent Sacrifice” writing contest on the health sector.
