Dainzin Zhoigar, a child who is from southwest China's Tibet Autonomous Region and is afflicted by congenital heart disease, receives congratulations from Chen Fang, vice president of Anzhen Hospital after the heart surgery in Anzhen Hospital in Beijing, capital of China, Sept. 20, 2012. Fourteen children from southwest China's Tibet autonomous region start receiving surgery at the Beijing Anzhen Hospital and Beijing Children's Hospital. Seventeen provinces and cities, as well as several Chinese companies, are providing free medical aid to Tibetan children with congenital heart disease as part of a medical program established by the regional Health Department in April 2012. The incidence of child congenital heart disease in Tibet is 10 times higher than other parts of China due to the region's high elevation. (Xinhua/Tang Zhaoming)
