By chance, in September 2008, President Jan Kleijn got a report from people of Kampung Ciomas village that some children were categorized as malnutrition. To respond to this, Rotary Club Bogor has invited a health officer from the responsible Puskesmas and Prof. Dr. Clara Kusharto, a nutritionist from Bogor Agricultural University, to visit those children. Following their recommendation, we brought them for a medical checking (blood test and Rontgen), to make sure about the prevalence of TBC that mostly affect malnutrition people. The test turned out to be positive.
The Puskesmas (People Health Center) helps them with six-months TBC treatment, and Rotary Club Bogor provides the children with milk. Very soon, Dr Clara and Rotary Club Bogor aregoing to train the parents (and all the villagers) on how to make and prepare healthy foods for children and family. |
