The 19th Chinese Medical Team in Rwanda on Wednesday handed over medical aids to Masaka Hospital in the Rwandan capital city Kigali.

 

中国第19批援卢旺达医疗队周三向卢旺达首都基加利马萨卡医院移交一批药品和医疗器械。 
 

 

The aids, donated by the Chinese government which entrusted¹ the Chinese medical team to hand over, are selected in line with Masaka Hospital's need, the Chinese medical team told Xinhua after a donation ceremony held in the hospital built with financing by the Chinese government.

 

The aids include medicines and medical apparatus² for the stomatology department.

 

"This donation is so important for us as a hospital and our people," Director of Masaka Hospital Marcel Uwizeye told Xinhua.

 

The medical aids will be used to treat the Rwandan people and for education, which means they are going to help in health of the Rwandan people, said Uwizeye.

 

"We are thankful for the cooperation between the governments (of Rwanda and China) and the Chinese medical team who are working here in our hospital," he said.

 

The Chinese medical team started working in Rwanda in 1982, and have been providing high quality medical service to Rwandan patients since then, said Economic and Commercial Counsellor of the Chinese Embassy in Rwanda Wang Jiaxin.
