DEAR EDITOR, according to Radio New Zealand International’s news bulletin on February 7, 2018 (quote)
“Fiji’s Minister of Health has confirmed the arrival of thirty new ambulances from the Peoples Republic of China.
“Rosy Akbar said the donation would be a great boost to emergency services in Fiji.
“The Ministry of Health said it plans to improve accessibility and improve health facilities including maternity services and health clinics in the Suva-Nausori corridor.”
The ambulance at the NRH is believed to be still awaiting repairs and the single ambulance in service is one that is operated in Honiara by St John’s Ambulance.
Yours sincerely
FRANK SHORT
