“This surgical building will help enhance the capacity of Vilabouly District Hospital to provide timely, safe, and reliable treatment,” Mr Saman said.
“It will also help reduce the need for patient transfers to provincial hospitals, particularly for people in remote communities who may face challenges related to distance, time, and travel costs.”

He also encouraged medical staff and relevant authorities to properly manage, maintain, and utilise the new facility to ensure its long-term and sustainable benefits for the community.
