Engagement and Events:

• On June 19, 2024, LFLPC received a visit from Xiamen University Malaysia as part of a project with the Ministry of Higher Education Malaysia to study the prosthetic limb market.

• From May 13 -15, 2024, LFLPC held a mobile clinic in Penang, which was invited by the Che Hoon Khor Moral Uplifting Society (CHKMUS). The clinic provided assessments, adjustments, and repairs for existing patients and was joined by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Nadia Mohd Mustafah from UiTM.

We want to take this opportunity to thank all those who have contributed to LFLPC since 2014. The monies received have been used to provide free limbs to the underprivileged amputees regardless of their race or religion. For 2024, we would also like to extend our heartfelt appreciation to individual donors for their generous donations of items for clinic use, in particular the continued donation of AllTest Covid-19 test kits used to ensure the health and safety of all patients, staff and volunteers.

We would also like to thank all the doctors and volunteers who have served LFLPC, without whom we would not have been able to serve the Malaysian amputee community. Sadhu and Anumodana.
