Axis four, on the other hand, deals with the population, social protection, gender equality, family, children, youth and the elderly. The fifth deals with the MPLA Government Program aimed at modernizing infrastructure and preserving the environment.<\/p>\n<p>The Polish ambassador and dean of ambassadors accredited to Angola, praised the MPLA&#8217;s initiative and said that it would be good for the other political formations to make their electoral programs known to the diplomatic corps. Piotr Mysliwiec said that he presented his concerns about the need to implement municipalities in Angola, as one of the best ways to solve the population&#8217;s problems and understands that issues related to Education and Health should be the responsibility of municipal administrations and provincial governments.<\/p>\n<p>The Chinese ambassador to Angola, Gong Tao, considered that the event was interesting, as it provided information on the results of the governance of the last five years and the prospects for the next five years. &#8220;This information is very useful and very enlightening.
