At a conference of the National Committee on Youth of Vietnam held in Hanoi on Tuesday, committee members proposed specific measures to care for youth, including establishing cultural institutions to serve youngsters’ interest in entertainment and organizing vocational guidance sessions. Nhan urged the committee to speed up youth programs and projects approved by the Government. Nhan said: The number of people involved in youth work at the moment is higher than ever before. This is our advantage. It’s the National Committee on Youth who should make use of this advantage. The Youth Union can use all youth members of their line agencies.
