Dr. Skender Sylla, Head of the WHO Country Office in Kazakhstan, Expresses Gratitude for Important Healthcare Advances, DKNews.kz reports.
The commitment to improving healthcare and controlling tobacco use holds a central place in Kazakhstan's agenda. Dr. Skender Sylla, Representative of the World Health Organization (WHO) in Kazakhstan, has expressed gratitude to the government and all stakeholders for their efforts in updating legislation aimed at strengthening the healthcare system and tobacco control in the country.
Support from the World Health Organization
The WHO, through its office in Kazakhstan, highly values the efforts of the Ministry of Health, the Parliament, and other stakeholders working on legislative updates in healthcare and tobacco control. This recognition underscores the importance and relevance of the steps being taken.
Significance of Healthcare System
Healthcare professionals play a crucial role in providing quality medical services to the population. Updating legislation to incentivize their motivation reflects the aspiration to enhance the accessibility and quality of healthcare, especially during the global COVID-19 pandemic.
Special Attention to Tobacco Issue
Control over the tobacco industry is becoming increasingly important amidst changing global circumstances. The ban on import, sale, and distribution of vaping products is one step towards ensuring the health and well-being of the population. Youth, as known, are the most vulnerable group to harmful habits.
Supporting Youth and Future Generations
Protecting youth from the harmful effects of tobacco and other harmful products is an integral part of healthcare strategy. Strengthening control over tobacco products and emphasizing healthy lifestyles, including proper nutrition and physical activity, will help create a healthy future for all residents of Kazakhstan.
Congratulations and Support from WHO
Dr. Skender Sylla and the World Health Organization in Kazakhstan extend their congratulations on the significant steps taken and support the country in its efforts to strengthen public healthcare and improve the health of Kazakhstan's population.
