Abstract:
Malaria situation in DakLak province in the first 5 months of 2003 has increased highly and unstable. High morbidity of malaria is concentrated in five districts of DakLak province: DakRlap, DakNong, DakSong, M’dRak and DakMil. These are far, newly established districts with very difficult conditions of transport, economy and numerous problems caused by the illegal migration of population. The most of local inhabitants of mainly districts are protected by insecticide such as house spraying or bednet impregnation with covering 80-90%. The vector control method now is practiced better but these activities mainly aimed at protecting the local inhabitant clusters or stably settled people while ignored the new settlers and people who frequently stay overnight in the swidden fields
