  • New hospital to open in Khost; development projects announced in Farah and Kandahar

    This fall, Khost City will have a new 100-bed hospital, according to a NATO news release. Work is nearly complete on the hospital, which will have an emergency room, male, female and children’s wards, mid-wife and maternity wards, x-ray and oncology departments, laboratories, inpatient and outpatient care facilities, as well as office space for medial personnel. The International Medical Corps will supply the hospital with the necessary equipment. The current Khost hospital has only 50 beds, and it serves a population of nearly 1 million people. With the construction of this hospital, more people will have access to quality healthcare and more jobs will be created for the people.

    In Afghanistan’s western province of Farah, provincial governor Rahool Amin visited Pur Chaman district to announce 6 new development projects for the district. The projects include: a micro-hydro plant to develop electrification, solar street lights, a boy’s school, an expansion of a health clinic, a security wall around a girl’s school, and a bee keeping facility to promote the district’s honey production. Pur Chaman’s 40,000 residents rely mostly on honey and almond production to make a living.

    Finally, Pajhwok Afghan News reported today that 150 kilometers of footpaths and an 80 kilometer sewerage network will be built in the capital of Kandahar province. 50 kilometers of footpaths have already been built in the city, so this new project will bring it to a total of 200 kilometers of footpaths.

    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!
