Cambodia unveils modern cancer center, new maternity facility

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

Let's give credit to the hospital being operational and, notwithstanding the normal BS that goes on, even one young life or a mother is saved then we must applaud the powers that be for the construction and operation.
I understand that the very poor will most likely not get a look in but a child is a child and any that are saved and mothers who live to care for their family is a bonus no matter the social standing of their family. =@

Some cancers can be cured or removed. Many can be held off for years. But you need the facilities and technology.
You also need the training to deal with that, which I suppose is part of the plan here. Got to start somewhere. :thumb:




Yep,,, the kid that throws his rubbish on the ground and has a untidy, unorganized bedroom will grow up to be a surgeon that drops the scalpel on the floor and leaves some instrument inside you before sewing you up.

Lets start with ALL preschool and 5 year olds education.
I have the pleasure of having regular contact with some med students here. Intelligent, witty, hard working, informed, and socially and evironmentally concerned.



I must get to venture further away from Wat Phnom, Riverside and the new Pub Street , and hopefully I might meet some of those med students.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.
