Vietnam was the first Asian state and the second in the world to ratify the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child in 1990. In addition, the Law on child protection, care and education was ratified by the National Assembly in 1991; this Law was then amended in 2004. Since then, Vietnam has issued 22 laws and legislative documents regarding the rights of children. The Prime Minister approved two important national programs in 2011, including the National Program on Child Protection and the National Plan of Actions for Children. I hope this helps!!
