Comment.
I would like to add my appreciation and thanks to the Malaitan from Gatton for their thoughtful and timely donations of wheel chairs and clinical equipment to the Kilu’ufi Hospital, especially as some of the elderly and disabled patients will be the ones to benefit mostly from the gifted items.
Yours sincerely
