The new record was marked today, November 1. To celebrate the
occasion this morning, Vice President Nguyen Thi Doan visited Nguyen Thi
Thuy Dung, who was born at 2.45am today at the National Hospital of
Obstetrics and Gynecology in Ha Noi to become Viet Nam's 90 millionth
citizen.
The baby, weighing 3.2kg, was born to mother Le Thi Duyen and father
Nguyen Van Dung, who come from the northern city of Hai Duong.
Dr Duong Quoc Trong, director of the General Office for Population
and Family Planning said that in 1989, after a comprehensive population
survey was conducted, Viet Nam's population was predicted to reach 90
million by 2002 and 105 million in 2010.
But it wasn't until today that Viet Nam's population reached 90
million, thanks to the country's efforts to curb population growth. –
