A medical delegation from the central province of Binh Dinh offered free medical check-ups to nearly 1,600 residents of Thateng district, Sekong province in Laos from August 26-31.
The Deputy Head of the Binh Dinh provincial Health Department, Ho Viet My, said that high quality staff with a wealth of experience were sent to Laos, and they worked enthusiastically to care for local people during their stay.
They examined and dispensed free medicine to more than twice the number of people they had initially planned for, at a total cost of over VND300 million.
The event helped strengthen the comprehensive ties between the two provinces and is one of the practical activities to support the Vietnam-Lao Friendship Year 2012.
