KABUL, Afghanistan — Afghan and International Security Assistance Force officials met Oct. 28, 2008 to inspect and inaugurate a new surgery center in Ghoryan District, Herat, Afghanistan.
Dr. Rashed, chief of the Herat Health Department, met with Col. Luca Covelli, commander of ISAF Herat Provincial Reconstruction Team, and Dr. Alberto Vecchi, chief of the Italian contingent's foreign affairs ministry.
Rashed, on behalf of the Afghan community of Ghoryan, thanked the members of the PRT. The PRT, which is guided by Regional Command-West, supports the provincial institutional authorities in the process of reconstruction, economical development and governance.
The project, financed with Italian funds, was built by a local Afghan company and managed by a group of military and civilian engineers from the PRT. The use of local contractors increased job opportunities for the people in the area and improved economical development in Ghoryan.
