The medical team consisted of 12 members from various locations in Peninsular Malaysia and East Malaysia. Upon arriving in Tenom, Sabah, they held medical camps in local churches and villages over two days, providing free medical, dental, and eye care services to the rural communities. The camps were well-attended with patients of all ages seeking treatment for various conditions. The team also worked closely with local volunteers and officials to help organize and run the camps. Overall the outreach program appeared to be a success in bringing healthcare to remote areas in need.
