Nurse goes beyond the call of duty to serve Orang Asli community


KUALA LUMPUR: Travelling more than 60km over a muddy oil palm plantation road on a motorcycle to provide healthcare services to the Orang Asli community has become an invaluable experience for a community nurse.

For Soria Nordin (pic), 43, who has been serving at the Kota Perdana Rural Clinic in Pahang for over two years, the trip has now become a routine for her as she provides midwifery services to the the Orang Asli community in the area.
