Bali to have International Medical Center

DENPASAR (indo.com): The Bali administration has decided to upgrade Sangleh hospital to meet international standards. A special committee has been set up to oversee the project. Under the auspices of the Governor and representatives from the provincial parliament, the team will oversee the Rp.250 billion (approximately US$ 24.4 million) project.

Indications have now surfaced that Bali's Udayana University is actively pursuing plans to build a world - class facility connected with the island's main school of higher learning.

Funds for the proposed hospital are expected to be secured via loans from the State Social Security System Jamsostek, with the final shareholding in the facility to be comprised of Jamsostek, the regional government in Bali, and local business groups.
