Dai-ichi Life Insurance Company of Vietnam launched the “Priority Enrolment to study in Australia” partnership programme in collaboration with Laureate International Universities in HCM City on February 22.

The programme is targeted at customers having children aged up to 12.

When they buy an An Phuc Hung Thinh policy for terms of 6, 9, 12, 15, 18 and 21 years, in addition to the basic insurance benefits, customers will also get a certificate of “Priority Enrolment to Study in Australia.”

With this, their children can enter Torrens University Australia, one of the leading private universities in the Laureate International Universities network, when they reach 18 years.

Takashi Fujii, chairman of Dai-ichi Life International Asia Pacific and chairman of Dai-ichi Life Vietnam, said following the success of the “Priority Enrolment to study in the US”, the company is launching the second programme to meet the increasing demand.

Dr Michael Mann, chancellor of Torrens University Australia, said the number of Vietnamese students studying Australia has continued to increase rapidly. “We look forward, through this programme, to welcome many Vietnamese students to Australia.” — VNS
