Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

On August 13, 2003, the Chinese Government came to the aid of Papua New Guinea hospitals with a donation of medical supplies worth K110,000 to the Government of PNG, the second batch of medical supplies handed over. Chinese Ambassador to Papua New Guinea Li Zhengjun said at the handover ceremony recently that the supplies were being given at a time when PNG hospitals were reportedly short of medicines and believed they would be greatly appreciated. This batch of equipment is mostly medical equipment and medicines for surgery, obstetrics and gynecology, stomatology, anesthesiology and brain surgery.
