I'm back in action! Being in Sabah, there are various activities organized by the hospital, and one of it includes the Medical Camps. Last weekend, I was fortunate enough to join the medical camp to Kg Mumiang, Kinabatangan. It was an awesome experience.
We got a lift from the Maritim Malaysia. It was so cool man! The boat journey took roughly 1 hour from Sandakan port. I was reminded about the Taman Negara trip N-years ago!
This is how Kg Mumiang looks like from far. It's a small kampung with a population of just over 300 people. Most villagers are from the Suluk tribe. They speak reasonably good Malay, with heavy Sabahan accent. Most of the men here are fisherman.
Imagine a hospital setting... This is the registration.
The MOPD cum Peads Clinic.
Even have ENT there... Dun play play...
Klinik Pergigian. Check dan cabut sahaja. Kalau nak tampal, kena naik boat 1 jam bah.
The Pharmacy. =)
The cacing buster, Albendazole Man. Haha, basically I was making sure all the children underwent the de-worming process... It was a cool job. Haha.
The villagers in Kg Mumiang live a simpleton life. This photos shows the diesel generator, the only one in the kampung. The generator is only switched on from 6PM -11 PM every night. Imagine this, only 5 hours of electricity every day. There was no fridge or television in the kampung. Yet, they seemed happy.
I'll end with the happy faces of children. This trip was simply surreal.
Happy Working everyone!!!
