27-May-2010 :-
Ahli Lembaga Pelawat Hospital (ALPH), PBS Wanita Tanjung Aru Division, UMNO Wanita Donggongon, and the Outreach Charity Group had successfully organized a ward visit cum celebration to the hospital old block at 2.00pm on Friday, 27th May, 2010, ahead of the Wesak day and the harvest festival celebration.
This joint event was very different from the previous one with the surprise joint appearance of two local celebrities, namely: En. Abu Bakar Ella, the Sabah icon for comedian performer, and the Akademi Fantasy singer talent, En. Felix Agus.
Their appearance had brought tremendous success to the event that they not only brought stunts to every ones in the wards, but also subsequently, brought back the lost smiles from some of the inmates.
Both of them, being idols for many locals, with especially En. Abu Bakar ella who had displayed his great public relationship skill by comforting some patients through his incredible touches, well wishes, and greetings.
It's a sensational moments for some who have been their admirers quietly for years.
It's hoped that the condition of the patients would improve more significantly after the joyous celebration.
Mr. Chu Kong Ming, Chairman of the LPH, said that the ward visit is a monthly scheduled event to inspect the premises and facilities. During the festivals, the visiting team will organize extra visits with some goodies for the inmates to celebrate, the move is meant to cheer up the already down moody hearts of the inmates there. He said that the kindness light shone by the two local celebrities is highly commendable and other celebrities should be encouraged to participate in similar charity events in order for them to seek meaningful life as a return.
The board is grateful, and particularly like to thank PBS Wanita Tanjung Aru Division for the on-the-spot approval of one unit 2.5 horse-power air-conditioner for the Neurosurgery Male Ward during the ward visit. Note that the air conditioner had been requested by the staff for more than a year and a half.
The much needed air conditioner is going to be arranged by Ms. Wendy Liew, and Datin Mary Yong who had seen the urgency; and hence the subsequent decision to grant the approval immediately without further delay.
For the information, the neurosurgery male ward has been requiring 3 units of 2.5 Horsepower air conditioner for almost 2 years - one unit was donated by one of the passed-away neuro patient's father 1.5 years ago, and the second one is due to be installed in 2 weeks time from the Ahli Lembaga Pelawat Hospital(ALPH), and the last one from PBS Wanita Tanjung Aru Division just mentioned.
Co-organizer of the event, Wanita UMNO Donggongon and a Deputy treasurer of the ALPH, Puan Nining Ballard, wished that the little token from the ALPH, PBS, and UMNO wanita movement can cheer up the spirit of the patients so that they will recover faster.
