ABSTRACT
Over the past years, malaria situation in Thua Thien – Hue province has much been improved. The inner malaria prevalence has basically been controlled with the low local transmission in the endemic areas. However, maintenance of the achieved results are facing lots of challenges including unorganized migration of population and illegal border-crossing business. To overcome these difficulties, during the period 2001-2003 the malaria surveillance in 12 communes, along the Vietnamese-Lao border was strengthened with the active participation of both civilian and military health services by Malaria Protection Center of Thua Thien – Hue province
