Editor,

This is with reference to the article, "Rwandan nurses get specialised training in India” (The New Times, June 19).

I would like to draw your kind attention to the last sentence of your article, "SevenHills Hospital is planning to open shop in Rwanda soon, according to Fernandes”.

Please allow me to clarify that my actual quote was as follows:

"With the very positive approach and the warm reception our Rwandan nurses have received from the senior management of the hospital, our dream of taking SevenHills to the land of a thousand hills could well be a reality”.

So, while SevenHills has no specific plan to open shop in Rwanda, it is my firm belief that with the right support from the concerned authorities in Rwanda, my dream of getting this world class super specialty tertiary care hospital to Rwanda could well become a reality.
