8. OUTLOOK FOR THE FUTURE
In
mid-September 1998, new health paradigm was introduced that focuses health
development more on the health promotion and prevention than on curative and
rehabilitative services. Through a series of in-depth discussions of Ministry
of Health and Social Welfare leaders, a statement of the Ministry’s new Vision and Mission for National Health Development has
been formulated. A consensus on the
formulation of the new Vision is reflected in the motto Healthy Indonesia 2010.
The time limit of 2010 was chosen with considerations that a decade
provides adequate time for achieving a dream or an ideal, and the time span
is challenging and inspirational, yet achievable.
