Xiamen gives Tibet a healthier outlook

Tashi Drolma, deputy head of Zogang county, expressed her appreciation for the medical resources from Xiamen and support from the national, provincial and municipal governments, which made the collaboration possible.

"The Xiamen medical experts are mentoring and training our local medical workers, significantly advancing our medical workforce and leading to substantial improvements in the skills of our healthcare professionals as a whole," she says.

"They have also contributed to the development of our healthcare industry and enhanced the overall quality of medical services available to our local people."

Since the program's launch, the Xiamen government has been cooperating with that of Zogang, addressing their specific requirements and dispatching professionals from various fields as per their needs.

This includes both long-term services lasting a year, and short-term exchanges of one or two weeks. During these exchanges, experts arrive in Zogang to conduct training sessions, or conversely, study tours of Tibetan students are organized to go to Xiamen.
