Wuxi municipal government has assisted Akqi with developing its health sector since March 2007, contributing to great improvements in health care standards in the county.

Doctors from Wuxi have mentored their colleagues at People's Hospital of Akqi County, and made plans to train key staff in Akqi in management and other professional skills to help the region promote a scientific and standardized health sector.
