Vanuatu DG of Health visits Vanuatu Medical Students Studying in Fiji

The Director General of Health for Vanuatu Mr. Mark Bebe visited Vanuatu  Medical Students studying in Fiji for the first time in so many years on Sunday the 3rd of October.
The President of Vanuatu Medical Student Association (VMSA), Mr. Ricky Boe Mera gave a welcome speech and was followed by hanging of garland by the girls. In his welcome speech Mr. Ricky thanked the DG for giving 100,000vt for the Independence Celebration and welcomed him to the school.
The visiting delegates and students had a quick lunch followed by a speech by the DG.
In his speech he talked about the importance of studying and the structure of Health Department. Giving time for questions, the student asked questions regarding housing of on-call Doctors, working as a private Doctor after working hours, about the containers for graduating students and many more questions regarding their profession which the DG did his best to answer.
After the questions Mr. Albert Toukoune thanked the DG for answering the questions, then Mr. Sale Vurobaravou gave a presentation on Eton Village Project to be carried out next month. After the presentation the DG has given a green light for financially supporting the project and Dr. Tony Harry has also said that they would help in transporting students during their time for cervical cancer screening.
The visit ended with a prayer and the students had a chance of talking with the DG before he left.
