JEDDAH — The Royal Thai Consulate-General here organized free health check-up for Thai community in Western Region from 17.00-20.00 pm. at the Consulate’s premises on Tuesday. More than 150 Thais residing in Jeddah and Makkah availed the services provided by Thai doctors and nurses from the Health Ministry of Thailand. Thai Consul-General Thanis Na Songkhla, and his staff supervised the event and provided assistance and facilitation to the Thai residents, who had come to meet the doctors. “This free health check-up organized by the Royal Thai Consulate-General in Jeddah, in coordination with the Health Ministry of Thailand, is aimed at providing basic health check-up and consultation to those Thais lacking chances or inconvenient meeting with local doctors due to their communication problems,” Na Songkhla said. “I would like to express my sincere thanks and gratitude to the Thai Health Ministry in sending us a Thai medical team who served the Thai pilgrims during the previous Haj season to visit the Consulate and generously provide a free health check-up to the Thai community,” Na Songkhla added.
