New mobile health clinics arrive from China

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.

Phnom Penh: The first 20 mobile ambulatory clinics, donated by the People's Republic of China to the Kingdom of Cambodia, arrived in Phnom Penh on April 19. In October, another 20 buses will arrive, bringing the countrywide total to 40.
The mobile clinics are equipped for general diseases, obstetrics, asthma, nose, throat, cataracts, radiography, among other things. They are specially designed to travel around and provide professional health services in remote areas where there is little or no health care available.

I saw them driving by a few days back and was wondering what they were. I guessed they were mobile clinics because I could see some medical chairs etc in the back. I was surprised at the number. It's an interesting initiative, I haven't hard much about it but I wish it success.

Good, hope to see more of this. IIRC both the Chinese and US navies send hospital ships regularly and provide medical and dental treatment to impoverished Khmers far upcountry, not only in the port.

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.
