Cuban help for the Solomons

Cuba has just this week invited the Solomons to talks on the use of its doctors in the Solomons. As connecting with Cuba and the USSR was once a PI ploy to wring more attention from Canberra and Washington, it will be interesting to see how this plays out. Certainly there is a desperate need for good doctors in the Solomons. Even the National Referral Hospital is short of anaesathetists and surgeons.
