KUCHING: 1Malaysia Sarawak Advisory Council member Ir Hj Irwan Zulkarnain Hj Muhammad Hasbie yesterday handed over a brand-new, medically equipped Maxus V80 van to Persatuan Kebajikan Sinar Cahaya Kuching.
Also known as the iM Sarawak Mobile Community Clinic, this vehicle has been out-fitted specifically to enable medical practitioners to attend to outpatient cases.
This initiative was implemented in partnership with Minister of Local Government and Housing Datuk Dr Sim Kui Hian, Persatuan Kebajikan Sinar Cahaya, Kuching, the Sarawak State Health Department and the Mini s t r y of Heal t h Malaysia.
Ir Hj Irwan Zulkarnain Hj Muhammad Hasbie said: “This project is in line with the objectives of iM Sarawak to help improve the standard of living of Sarawakians.
Many living in the outskirts have trouble getting transport into town while others cannot afford to take time off work to visit the hospitals and clinics.
As such we hope that the mobile clinic will be able to help the elderly and those with mobility problems get medical attention in a timelier and more cost-effective manner.”
Persatuan Kebajikan Sinar Cahaya is responsible for the mobile community clinic’s operations and maintenance.
