Description
On August 24, 2011, the Chinese government donated a batch of anti-malaria drugs to Ghana. At the donation ceremony, a speech was delivered by Gao Wenzhi, the Economic & Commercial Counsellor of the Chinese Embassy in Ghana. The Chinese Embassy reports that this donation was worth roughly RMB 3,000,000 while Modern Ghana News cites a figure of USD 460,000 which is roughly the same value. A second official Chinese source also cites the amount of RMB 3 million. The donation was accepted by Ghana's Minister of Health, Joseph Yileh Chireh, and was just the most recent development in a long history of anti-malaria cooperation.
