Health care is a major concern of all nations, particularly in third world countries such as the Philippines and in areas like the Bicol region. Some information indicates that three out of five indigent brothers and sisters or ours in the rural areas die without the benefit of any medical attention from any source.
In an effort to improve the standard of care in the Bicol region, the Bicol National Association of America (BNAA), through the leadership and efforts of its former president, Mario Tecson, and continued by its incumbent President Roger Odiamar, includes the medical mission on its agenda. |
