Tangkarason Clinic fire

The villagers of Kg Tangkarason, Beluran, are urgently seeking assistance as the makeshift health clinic in their village has significantly deteriorated in nearly three months since a devastating fire razed the Tangkarason Health Clinic in Beluran.

The Tangkarason healthcare clinic, which has temporarily relocated to a multipurpose hall after its permanent building was razed in a fire last week, is nowhere near adequate and lacks the necessary medical equipment to treat the inhabitants of the nearby villages.

In a statement today, Sabah Health director Datuk Dr Asits Sanna clarified that the circulated donation drive on social media was not endorsed by the department. 

The Health Ministry, in a statement today, said the emergency procurement includes the replacement of equipment lost in the fire to ensure uninterrupted healthcare services for residents in the area.
