N'djamena — China's ambassador to Chad Hu Zhiqiang on Tuesday handed over anti-malaria drugs worth over 680, 000 million U.S. dollars to Chad's national medicine agency.
"This symbolizes the importance that our two presidents pay attention to the issue of health. I hope the cooperation between the two countries will be reinforced," Hu said.
While receiving the drugs, Chad's Health Minister Mahamat Annou Wadak thanked China for the aid and noted that it was in line with the government's plans of fighting against malaria.
He promised the Chinese ambassador that the anti-malaria drugs will go to the population who are in need of them.
Wadak said the Chinese medical aid, the second of its kind this year, comes at a time when there is an increase in the number of people suffering from malaria in Chad.
