Following food and medical assistance, China has pledged to give an additional $16 million to West Africa for its fight against the Ebola disease.
Chinese Premier Li Keqiang pledged to give the monetary support at the 10th Asia-Europe Meeting (ASEM) Summit themed "Responsible Partnership for Sustainable Growth and Security."
Li expressed the willingness of the Chinese government to battle the Ebola virus with other countries.
The assistance will be equivalent to thousands of protective gear and medical packs, 100 motorcycles and 60 ambulances.
Li said that China will also send medical experts to assist in the training of over 10,000 African health workers.
"China, along with other Eurasian countries that have extended help for Africa, is willing to stand together with the governments and people in Ebola-hit areas to tackle the challenge," Li said.
It is not the first time for China to give monetary assistance to contain Ebola. Recently, the Chinese government offered $38 million to Africa, which has been fighting the Ebola disease since April.
China has also sent food provisions and teams of medical professionals to the African countries with the outbreak.
As of Oct. 12, there have been 8,997 Ebola-related cases, 5,006 of which are laboratory-confirmed cases. The Ebola virus has already killed 4,493 people worldwide.
