Health fair attracts Iraqi investors

ISTANBUL - Anatolia News Agency. September/01/2012

The Iraqi government, which has vowed to restructure its hospitals as an overall effort to revive its war torn country, has decided to attend the Istanbul Health Expo Fair from Oct. 10 to 13. The Iraqi ministry of health will attend with a 40 person team of buyers.

The Iraqi government, which is trying to modernize its country, has set aside a $600 billion budget, $30 billion of which will go towards health sector spending. The Turkish medical sector is therefore eagerly looking for any opportunities that might arise from Iraq’s interest in revamping its hospitals.

Looks like a bedroom on the 2nd floor of a house/villa.

They literally have no clue how hospitals and schools/universities are SUPPOSED to look... they need someone to teach them.
