"On the occasion of the 42nd anniversary of Vietnamese Teachers' Day - November 20, 2024, with the tradition of "When drinking water, remember its source", on behalf of the leaders of the Ministry of Health, I would like to send my best wishes and best regards to teachers, managers and employees working in health human resource training facilities nationwide.
The tradition of "respecting teachers and valuing education" has been a moral, a flow that runs through every generation of the Vietnamese people. In every period, teachers are always honored, appreciated by society and have a special position in society. Although science and technology have developed, many modern and convenient factors can participate in the process of educating people, but nothing can replace the position of teachers.
Along with the development of the country, the health sector has constantly strived to best fulfill its mission of protecting, caring for and improving people's health. Imbued with national traditions and the ideology of President Ho Chi Minh, generations of Vietnamese teachers and doctors have overcome all difficulties, always maintained the passion for the training career, constantly innovated, created, competed to teach well; and are shining examples of ethics, dedication, responsibility and passion for the teaching profession.
Over the past year, training institutions and teachers have actively continued to carry out fundamental and comprehensive innovation in health human resource training, implementing competency-based training programs, and approaching advanced education and training trends of countries in the region and around the world.
Teachers are the decisive factors for the success of the innovation in training medical human resources, contributing to building generations of medical staff who are both talented and dedicated. The health sector always respects and is grateful to teachers, always acknowledging, appreciating and praising the achievements and great contributions of medical human resources training institutions to the development of the health sector in general.
In the letter of General Secretary and President To Lam to the education sector on the occasion of the opening of the 2024-2025 school year, he wrote: "The new school year 2024-2025 is the first school year to implement Conclusion No. 91-KL/TW of the Politburo on continuing to implement Resolution No. 29-NQ/TW"... "The education sector needs to focus on implementing well the theme of the school year: "Innovation, quality improvement, solidarity and discipline". Education and training need to continue to aim at human development and human happiness, maximize the human factor, take people as the center, subject, resource, and goal of development, creating a foundation for realizing the goal of a rich people, a strong country, democracy, fairness, and civilization".
With the spirit of the new school year, I hope that teachers, managers and workers working in medical training facilities nationwide will always be dedicated, love their jobs, be creative, overcome all difficulties, and contribute more to their noble career.
On this occasion, on behalf of the Ministry of Health, I would like to sincerely thank the attention, assistance and support of the Central Committees, Ministries, Branches, Party Committees, Governments, organizations and individuals for teachers and health personnel training facilities nationwide. I believe that with the attention and support through timely, practical and correct policies, it will continue to be maintained, promoted and further strengthened in the coming time to successfully implement the reform of education in our country.
Once again, on the occasion of Vietnamese Teachers' Day, I would like to express my deepest gratitude and best wishes to teachers, administrators and workers at medical training institutions across the country, who carry the glorious and noble mission of "cultivating people", helping the dreams of generations of students fly high and far. I wish you good health and to always keep the flame of enthusiasm for education and training of human resources for the cause of protecting, caring for and improving people's health."
