When women are healthy and maintain a positive spirit, they can take good care of themselves, their families, and contribute to the development of the community and society.
"From today's health check-up activity, I hope that disadvantaged and disadvantaged women will receive attention and encouragement and from there gain more knowledge to realize many dreams and plans in life," said Ms. Duong Ngoc Linh.
