DKT Mekong are delighted to announce a significant milestone in Vietnam’s healthcare landscape: the successful signing ceremony of the MoU between the Vietnam Family Planning Association (VINAFPA) and DKT Vietnam. This partnership represents a pivotal moment in improving nationwide access to essential SRH and FP services.

According to the MoU, both parties will focus on collaborating to enhance availability and expand the distribution network of DKT trademarked SRH products, and to train healthcare providers on the use of contraceptive and safe abortion methods, aiming to improve service quality and user experience at 29 clinics within the VINAFPA network. Additionally, the parties will coordinate to organize IEC programs to raise awareness among youth and industrial zone workers.

During the ceremony, emotions were high as President Pham Ba Nhat recounted the inception of OK condoms, a flagship product of DKT in Vietnam for over 30 years. He shared stories from the early days when OK condoms were first introduced at the Thong Nhat Park Circus, attended by numerous dignitaries from the healthcare sector.

Particularly memorable was the appearance of a large elephant decorated with a red OK logo embroidered on its cloth covering. President Nhat also showed us a gift he has cherished for three decades now: a backpack embroidered with the red OK logo, presented to him during the OK product launch event. Despite a long hiatus in our collaboration, his deep appreciation for DKT work was evident.

President Nhat underscored the importance of renewing our partnership through this MoU, expressing gratitude to DKT Vietnam for actively promoting cooperation aimed at providing comprehensive SRH education and services throughout Vietnam. “We eagerly await the outcomes of this renewed collaboration,” he remarked.

Rodrigo Portugues, DKT Vietnam’s Country Director deeply appreciated President Nhat’s sentiments towards DKT and highlighted: “The partnership reaffirms our joint commitment to empowering individuals and communities by equipping them with essential knowledge and resources to make informed decisions about the SRH.”

Together, we look forward to realizing the full potential of this partnership and its positive impact on communities throughout Vietnam.
