DAP SRI AMAN

Press Release 

DAP Sri Aman had hosted a successful 2 day health camp in San Demam Longhouse on last Saturday & Sunday. 

A total of 197 patients came and were treated by a team of 4 doctors that were led by Dato' Dr Lim  Seh Guan, an Ear Nose & Throat Specialist & 3 Dentists. 

"They were attempts to sabotage our event, our banners were destroyed, posters torn, but thank God, common sense prevailed, the longhouse people still came & sought treatment", said Leon Jimat Donald.

"The big turnout by the longhouse folks was a big surprise to us all and we from DAP Sri Aman were very thankful that the doctors & volunteers could cope; this clearly shows that the rural populace is aware of their health and they are in dire need of good medical services. This service is the responsibility & should have been done by this Government of the day but alas, our 'new' hospital doesn't seem to be getting built anytime soon. Our local assemblyman is only interested in polictiking & our MP silence on the hospital issue is deafening. The rakyats health needs does not seem important in their list of priorities. It is really sad that the rakyat of Sri Aman are made to suffer," exclaimed Leon Jimat Donald, DAP Sarawak Vice Chairman.

The dental clinic was the most frequently visited as the dentists' reported that they extracted more than 200 tooths.
