Piseth;
Must admit that health care system in Cambodia is not adequate comparing to neighbouring country in particular in remote rural area - people have to travel to town to seek for treatment of any serious medical condition.
At the same time, we shall look into conduct awareness and educate people about sanitation and hygiene. The fact is that some minor element illness can be avoid if sanitation and hygiene are adhered to. I.e. Washing hand after using toilet, before meal, approprate toilet [with cover where is applicable], area surrounding the house shall be clear off weeds, swamp to avoid mosquitos’ breeding Etc. If area is non safe drinking water they shall boil the water instead of just drink it straight from where they can get it.
33US$ annually is a lot for people who did not have such an amount of money.
Oh yeah, i don’t agree with 33US$ too. I learned the situation of the people who cannot make effort have such amount of money.
Anyway, your idea is very constructive.
In fact, Cambodian people in remote rural areas cannot access enough public health service from government. By the way, there are corruption in the health service as well if people do not give money to doctors, they will not strongly take consideration into the patients.
