Speaking at the conference, Mr. Nguyen Phuoc Loc noted that during the Covid-19 pandemic, women in Ho Chi Minh City, together with frontline forces, acted as a “shield” protecting public health and lives.

They also play a central role in building happy families, raising children, and caring for the elderly, contributing to social cohesion and national unity.
