Oxygen Generator Unit Opened in Preah Vihear
Cambodia News, (Preah Vihear Province): On Wednesday, September 14, 2022, Dr. O Vandin, Secretary of State of the Ministry of Health, on behalf of Prof. Mam Bunheng, Minister of Health, attended the inauguration ceremony of the new building at 16 Makara Provincial Referral Hospital, Preah Vihear Province.
At the inauguration ceremony, she said that the support for the construction of the building and the oxygen generator reflected the good cooperation in the health sector, and this achievement has contributed to reducing the shortage in the supply of oxygen and will help to provide health services to people in the province faster and more efficiently. Before this, the department had to purchase oxygen at 60,000 to 70,000 riel ($15 to $17) per unit, and it took some time to arrive.
Dr. O Vandin, Secretary of State for the Ministry of Health, thanked the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) in Cambodia and UNICEF Cambodia for constructing the hospital building and for the oxygen generators, which can produce nearly 20 units of oxygen in just three or four hours.

Re: Oxygen Generator Unit Opened in Preah Vihear
It doesn't surprise me in the least, COVID-19 took it's toll on the supply chain. I am in need myself went to clinic's and hospital's, many of them in Phnom Penh don't have the oxygen, private and the provincial hospital's seem to have some for emergency room only.
I wonder if over use or just a miss calculation from the health ministry? Either way it's a grave mistake for many that are in need, also again I noticed that an outside country is helping, is it not time that this government started to stand on its own feet and provide for its people?

Always "hope" but never "expect".

UNICEF donates 7-million-USD medical equipment for Cambodia
The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) on June 12 handed over medical equipment for oxygen therapy worth over 7 million USD to Cambodia’s Ministry of Health.

Hanoi (VNA) – The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) on June 12 handed over medical equipment for oxygen therapy worth over 7 million USD to Cambodia’s Ministry of Health.
According a press release by UN organisation, the devices include oxygen concentrators, patient monitors, pulse oximeters, resuscitators, and other oxygen therapy accessories that will be distributed to 131 health facilities, including national, provincial and district hospitals and health centres across Cambodia in the coming weeks.
The donation is part of UNICEF’s ongoing effort to strengthen Cambodia’s health system for equitable primary health care following the acute phase of the COVID-19 pandemic.
“During COVID-19, we saw that global access to oxygen was unequal, which impacted most low- and middle-income countries,” said Dr. Will Parks, UNICEF Representative in Cambodia at the handover. “We are proud to play a part globally in addressing this equity gap, while also enhancing Cambodia’s capacity to lifesaving measures for children and their families.”
