The project will be launched at the Military Hospital 175 in Ho Chi Minh City this year with a combined fund of around US$2 million from the US Government and VND5.5 billion (US$242,317) sourced from the country’s national defence budget.
It will provide training courses to improve the capacity of Vietnam’s medical forces to be served in the United Nations (UN) peacekeeping missions.
The project will also prepare personnel and essential health equipment of the second-level hospital to engage in missions upon the request of the UN.
