(VOV) - Vietnamese Defence Attaché to Cambodia Nguyen Anh Dung on June 2 presented a modern medical equipment package worth over VND2 billion to a Royal Cambodian Army hospital in Preah Vihear province.
Military hospital Samdech Techo Hun Sen Sra Em was officially opened in late 2013 with total investment capital of VND4.5 billion, as a gift from the Vietnam Ministry of Defence.
Over the years the Vietnam Ministry of Defence has assisted Cambodia in building infrastructure and providing medical equipment, developing human resources at all levels, giving free medical check-ups and medicine, and treating military Cambodian officers and soldiers in Vietnam.
In 2014, the Ministry plans to deploy medical care packages worth more than VND50 billion to the Royal Cambodian Army, focusing on military hospitals and healthcare centres across the country.
