The United States State Department on Tuesday issued a statement noting the US gave $2 million last month for the Kingdom’s fight against COVID-19.

 

The statement, shared by the US embassy in Phnom Penh, said the money will help the government prepare laboratory systems, activate case-finding and event-based surveillance and support technical experts for response and preparedness. “The Centres for Disease Control is assisting Cambodia with contact tracing, clinical management, lab testing, surveillance and infection control,” it said. “A US National Institute of Health infectious disease physician, is assisting with clinical consultations and developing clinical care guidelines for the Royal Phnom Penh Hospital.”

 

“Since the outbreak began, the US government has provided approximately $18.3 million in emergency health and humanitarian assistance to Asean member States,” it said. “Globally, as of [Sunday], the United States is providing an initial investment of nearly $274 million in emergency health and humanitarian assistance to help countries in need, on top of the funding we already provide to multilateral organisations such as the World Health Organization and Unicef,” the statement added.

Cool. I catch it, I want to be treated for free! Dude, what is this bill? Ya got 2 million last month and i get my hospital meals delivered!

How much of that money do you think will find it's way to 'Hospitals'?????

My guess is that a few 'deep pockets' will need to be filled first and not leave any/much for Public-Aid.

Those boys just wanna be everywhere. Stay the heck out of Cambo America, there isn't anything you can do to look good or compromise an individual. Anyone who touches this money is suspect, soon to be dead.  Please USA, stay the heck away from this one for once.

2 million to Cambodia the bastion of democracy and free speech, complements of US tax payers. ????
