Thieu Thi Thao, Chairwoman of the Tan Loi Commune Women's Union, shared: "Tan Loi is a remote and disadvantaged commune, with the ethnic minority population accounting for over 49%. Many residents here still face limitations in self-care and lack access to the necessary conditions for comprehensive medical services. The noble gestures of the volunteer doctors and medical staff are truly invaluable to the people and the local authorities."
