During the visit, the Vietnamese team was received by Senator Alberto Anaya, the General Secretary of the Workers’ Party (PT), who praised the work of acupuncture centres called Ho Chi Minh in Mexico , considering them beneficial for both the PT and the Communist Party of Vietnam.
The PT leader said he hoped that cooperation will develop in the future and suggested that Vietnam build two new acupuncture centres to provide treatment for drug users during detoxification and disabled children in Monterrey city.
After the reception, both parties signed an agreement to extend the operational time of these centres to December 2012.
