CHINA IS NOT SWEEPING MENTAL HEALTH UNDER THE CARPET.
The Standing Committee of the National People's Congress, the legislative house, deliberated a draft bill on the mental health of the nation on Monday. It is good news for the government, medical workers and those who have a mental disorder. Under the auspices of Ministry of Health, the bill has been in the works since 1985.
While the changing physical condition of Chinese citizens has drawn a lot of attention, mental illness has been neglected.
