The Cambodian government donated $1 million to Kantha Bopha Children’s Hospitals on July 18, said Minister of Health Mam Bunheng.

The donation came to the free outpatient medical institution as it’s facing a budget shortfall.

In the past week, the hospitals have received donations totalling $2.3 million from sources with ties to the government including the Cambodian Red Cross and the Bayon Foundation.

The last two organisations are headed by Prime Minister Hun Sen’s wife, Bun Rany, and daughter, respectively.
