US Mercy Ship in Dili



Today afternoon, I was strolling at the beach. See the picture up there. The ship did not have much activity. It looked so calm by the time the sun was about to disappear and be eaten by the horizon.  

The ship comes from the US, called US Mercy ship. It is here in Dili (East Timor) for a humanitarian visit. It carries doctors and surgeons to provide free health services to patients.

Doctors in it come from many different nationalities. From America, Australia and South East Asian countries. That is what I heard when I was once invited to tour in there four years ago. This week I saw it comes again.

It will provide medical assistance to patients who have got recommendation from local medics. There, patients will receive medical examinations and surgeries to various diseases.

It will also stop by in other Asia pacific countries like Indonesia, the Philippines, etc. to provide the same services; the visit is a huge help for East Timor because people from rural areas who cannot afford to go to doctor will receive a privileged treatment.
