Mr Kyongsig Park, the Ambassador of the Republic of Korea to Ghana, speaking at the ceremony, said the long relationship between the two governments made it possible for KOFIH to invest in quality healthcare in Ghana over the years and promised that his government would continue to assist Ghana in the promotion of quality health delivery.<\/p>\n
The Korean Ambassador announced that his government through KOFIH had spent US$32 million on promotion of quality healthcare delivery in Ghana in the past 10 years.<\/p>\n
He said with the establishment of KOFIH Ghana office in 2014, \u201cwe strived to continuously enhance accessibility and quality health services in the Volta region.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mr Park said KOFIH\u2019s activities were mostly in the areas of the provision of health infrastructure, including the building and equipping health centres, rehabilitation of health facilities, and promotion of maternal, newborn and child health (MNCH), particularly in the rural areas.<\/p>\n
He said since KOFIH was 10 years old in Ghana, it was an indication of the growing relationship between the two countries and reaffirmed its commitment to supporting Ghana\u2019s healthcare system and strengthening collaborative efforts for sustainable health solutions.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n
The Minister of Health, Mr Kwabena Mintah Akandoh, lauded the sound relationship between Ghana and Korea, which saw KOFIH in the promotion of quality healthcare in the country over the years, and stressed that both countries would continue to work for the mutual benefit of their people.<\/p>\n
Mr Akandoh said the government of Korea had provided much assistance to Ghana in the promotion of quality healthcare delivery in the country over the years.<\/p>\n
The Health Minister asked chiefs to support health workers in their communities by providing accommodation for them to enable them to deliver effectively and improve healthcare delivery, particularly in the rural areas.<\/p>\n
Mr Akandoh said KOFIH had also provided health workshop in Ho for the repair of equipment to facilitate healthcare delivery in the region.<\/p>\n
Mr James Gunu, the Volta Regional Minister, commended the chiefs of Abutia for making land available for the project, which he said would promote quality healthcare delivery in the area.<\/p>\n
He assured the people that the poor road network from Juapong through to Abutia to Sokode would be reconstructed to ensure free movement of goods and services.<\/p>\n
The Chief of Abutia -Kpota, Togbe Tsali IV, thanked KOFIH and the Ghana Health Services (GHS) for the provision of the facility, and promised that the Community would adopt the best maintenance culture to keep the facility to benefit generations to come.<\/p>\n
