為幾內亞貢獻心力

哈佛大學醫學院畢業的普朗馬醫生是我多年的好友, 他和我共同擔任赫里斯郡醫院基金會已近二十年之久, 他和女𠒇都是休斯敦地區著名之牙醫, 女𠒇莉蒂西亞更是現任大休斯敦之市議員,可謂是非裔社區之重要領袖人物。

普朗馬醫生得知幾內亞駐美大使來訪之消息後, 我告訴他此行之目的是希望休斯敦地區之醫療機構能向幾內亞捐助些醫療物資,他得知後毫不猶豫地答應幫助。日前我偕同大使前往他的診所拜訪, 他𣎴但親切接待而且立即把一批他診所使用後還很新的牙醫診所設備捐獻出來,估計總共市值二十五萬美元, 我正在安排在近期內如何運往幾內亞交由該國醫院使用。

我們對於這𠆤善舉表示衷心之感謝,也是卡巴大使此行之一大收獲,幾內亞排全世界最貧窮之國家之一, 尤其是極度缺乏醫療設備,全國平均壽命不到五十七歲。

為了進一步瞭解幾內亞實際情況, 我們決定近期內帶領工商界人士前往考察, 尤其是有關農業觀光方面是投資最好之項目。

目前我們還在募集更多之醫療設備,希望能裝成四十呎之大貨櫃盡快海運前往幾內亞,也表示我們之關懷和幫助。


 Contributing To Guinea


Today I had the opportunity to do something meaningful for Guinea with the help of my friend Dr. Plummer, a graduate of Harvard Medical School. We have been serving together on the Harris County Hospital District Foundation Board for almost two decades. He and his daughter Lititia both are prominent dentists in the Houston area. Lititia is also currently serving on the City Council of Houston, making her a significant leader in our community.

Upon learning of Ambasador Kaba's visit to our city, I informed Dr. Plummer that she is looking for some medical supplies that can be donated to Guinea. Dr Plummer readily agreed to help to donate a batch of slightly used medical equipment from his clinic with a total value of $250,000 dollars.

We expressed our heartfelt thanks for this good deed, which is also one of the great harvests of the Ambasador’s visit.

Guinea is not one of the poorest countries in the world, yet they have an extreme lack of medical equipment which impacts their average life expectancy of less than 57 years.


We are planing to organize a trade mission in the near future, especially with the best investment projects in mind being  agricultural and tourism.
