Pictorial: National Cancer Centre takes shape

The National Cancer Center one of Malawi Government’s flagship projects whose construction commenced in 2017 is taking shape as it heads towards completion.

Situated at the Kamuzu Central Hospital (KCH) Campus, once completed, the facility will save costs on billions of Kwachas spent on referrals outside Malawi for treatment.

As final touches are being put in place, the necessary machinery has already been installed with expectation that it will be operational later in the year.
