The French company EUROFORMED supplied two sets of high tech medical equipments to the Teaching Hospital Karapitiya in Galle.
The opening ceremony of the new operating theatres of the hospital was inaugurated on October 7 to which the Ambassador of France, Christine Robichon assisted at the invitation of the Sri Lankan authorities.
These equipments, a twin modular operating theatre and a cardiac catheterization laboratory angiography system, have been financed by a soft loan granted by the Government of France, for a total amount of 9,5 million Euros (1,6 billion LKR), to upgrade the medical equipments of the public hospitals in several cities of Sri Lanka, mainly Galle, Jaffna, Polonnaruwa and Anuradhapura.
The enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of health is one of the fundamental rights of every human being and France is particularly happy to contribute to the improvement of the capacities of the Sri Lankan governmental hospitals to provide the best possible medical care to the people.
France and the French people have a long history of partnership with the district of Galle, to which a lot of support was channelled through French NGO’s after tsunami. http://www.dailynews.lk/2011/10/11/news40.asp
