LAWAS: It can take anywhere between five and twelve hours of driving to reach Ba’kelalan, a group of 13 villages, where Mercy Malaysia with the support of United Motor Works (UMW) set up a two-day mobile clinic.
The journey to the area from the nearest town, Lawas, involves driving in four-wheel drives on bumpy roads across four mountains or a much shorter flight which is only available twice a week.
