IN the heart of Chow Kit, Kuala Lumpur, a group of medical students from Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM) set up a makeshift clinic to offer free health screenings to the homeless and underserved.

The initiative was by Asian Medical Students Association (Amsa) Malaysia, in collaboration with Malaysian Heart Health Association (MyHeart).
