KNU Build Remote Villagers A Clinic
The Karen National Union has opened, in response to village concerns, a clinic to give remote and isolated rural communities access to healthcare.
The Kawkreik Township, Dooplaya District KNU office opened the clinic in the Mae Kanel village in Nu Poe area on November 20, 2013.
Pa Doh Saw Eh Kaw Thaw, secretary of the KNU’s Kawkareik Township office said villagers in Mae Kanel village and surrounding villages have for too long been isolated and unable to access healthcare.
Speaking to
Karen News, Padoh Saw Eh Kaw Thaw said.
“It is far for the villagers from this area to travel to the clinic at Myawaddy. After discussions with the relevant community leaders we built this clinic at Mae Kanel village.”
