    Kandahar Public Health Department Gets 11 Ambulances

    Last week, the Wakht News Agency (WNA) reported that in a public ceremony, the Governor of Kandahar, Tooryalai Wesa, presented eleven well equipped ambulances to the Kandahar Public Health Department. The ambulances were donated by the the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). These ambulances were purchased at a cost 24 million Afghanis (approx. $510,311). According to the report, Wesa ” thanked the USAID for its generous efforts and donations and said that it would enhance the capacity of the department and benefit the people at large.” The Governor also thanked the Chief of Public Health for helping to improve the health services in the province.

    A line[Durrand line] of hatred that raised a wall between the two brothers -Hamid Karzai

    For generations, the Hindus of India prayed for deliverance from "the venom of the cobra, the teeth of the tiger and the vengeance of the Afghan."


    The men of Kábul and Khilj also went home; and whenever they were questioned about the Musulmáns of the Kohistán (the mountains), and how matters stood there, they said, "Don't call it Kohistán, but Afghánistán; for there is nothing there but Afgháns and disturbances." Thus it is clear that for this reason the people of the country call their home in their own language Afghánistán, and themselves Afgháns. The people of India call them Patán; but the reason for this is not known. But it occurs to me, that when, under the rule of Muhammadan sovereigns, Musulmáns first came to the city of Patná, and dwelt there, the people of India (for that reason) called them Patáns—but God knows!

    This is good news!

    i believe there was something very similar to this a while back. Or maybe it was an article regarding having this started, meh dunno.

    I wonder if its just for one hospital?

      It's the same story, above is the original wakht news report that Admin's link (dated 14th August) is referring to.

      There is no mention of them being used for just one hospital rather they refer to the 'Kandahar Public Health Department' so I assume it aims to cover a large area of the province.
