Havana, September 25 (RHC)—- Cuba’s Biological Laboratories enterprise Labiofam and Ghana signed a letter of intent on Wednesday to keep bilateral actions towards the control of Malaria in the African nation.

The document was signed by Labiofam’s director Jose Antonio Fraga and Ghana’s Deputy Health Minister Victor Bampoe, who is heading a delegation to the 2014 International Congress of Labiofam at Havana’s International Convention Center.

The joint Malaria program has been implemented in the capital, Accra, and the recently signed accord includes technical advice and biological products to control the disease in other regions of Ghana.

Labiofam’s director said that the objective of Cuban cooperation is not that of selling local products but transferring technology and know-how to other nations. He announced that his entity is scheduled to conclude a large biotechnological plant in Dar es Salam, Tanzania, this year. The facility will not only produce bio-products to fight Malaria, but also bio-fertilizers and biological pest control agents for agriculture in several African countries.

The Ghanaian deputy health minister described the accord as a further gesture of friendship between the two countries and added that they welcome the bilateral cooperation program so that Ghana advances in the elimination of Malaria.
