Setting up Camp. We are working with the church at Sg Aup for this camp on 20th Jan 2015

The Church is easily accessible. The Church is in the background. The Pastor is watching us set up. We are using the annex to the left of this photo, where the first tent is already up.

This is the 1st floor where we site the dermatology, dental, OG and breast examination clinics.
