Gates couple makes visit to Cambodia

21 April 2014

The world’s wealthiest person, Bill Gates, and his wife, Melinda, made a brief appearance in the border town of Pailin on Saturday, where their foundation funds projects to combat drug-resistant malaria.

The philanthropists met with health ministry officials and employees from projects funded by their organisation at the hotel before jetting on to Siem Reap.

Gates, the founder of Microsoft, launched his foundation in 1994 and has since donated over $28 billion to projects largely dedicated to improving health and alleviating poverty.
