When the Deputy Minister of Health said no, the Minister of Education and Training said no such thing

At the discussion on the draft Law on Higher Education (amended), the Deputy Minister of Health said that after reading the Report on Acceptance and Explanation No. 2028, he was very saddened.

Unfortunately, the explanations for majors I, II and boarding are completely incorrect, only considered as a vocational certificate. Meanwhile, resident doctors, department I, department II are the elite, the great intellectuals of the medical industry.

Vice-rector Nguyen Tri Thuc commented: "The Ministry of Health does not seek to get a job, but if it is approved according to this draft, health education will be officially managed by the Ministry of Education and Training. Even the health education program approved by the Minister of Education and Training is very worrying".

The Deputy Minister of Health's opinion is not unreasonable.

Because the medical industry builds and adheres to the training program, it will ensure the professional quality of the team of doctors and medical staff.

Without expertise in the medical industry, only managing on theory and machinery, will be far from reality. Education in medicine is a field of practical science, always associated with hospitals.

This is very clear, students study theory well, but if they do not practice, they cannot become good doctors.

Delegate Nguyen Tri Thuc proposed to add the Ministry of Health as the focal point responsible for the Government in implementing the contents and tasks of State management of specialized training at postgraduate level in the national education system in the field of health Sciences.

Reviewing the viewpoint of Delegate Nguyen Tri Thuc, Minister Nguyen Kim Son proved it by the provisions stated in the draft: "In the draft revised Law on Higher Education, Article 8, Clause 2, Point d states: "Intensive training program in the field of health science granted the title of resident doctor, specialist doctor is managed by the Ministry of Health".

The Minister affirmed: The Ministry of Education and Training does not manage this content and has never had a policy of bringing universities under the Ministry of Health under the Ministry of Education and Training.

Mr. Son further analyzed that it is necessary to clearly distinguish State management of education from professional management. The Ministry of Education and Training implements State management through legal documents, instructions and standards; this does not contradict the specialized unit's deep professional management.

Deputy Minister Nguyen Tri Thuc said that he did not take the job but because of his responsibility to train the elite team in the medical industry.

Minister Nguyen Kim Son resolutely said: "We work according to principles and take responsibility for those principles".

If both ministries fulfill their responsibilities but still cannot find a common voice, there must be problems and overlaps in management that need to be resolved.
