Testimony from Dr Shermela:

About my first Medical Mission trip:
When I look back on my first medical mission to Namibia, what stands out most is not just the medicine we practised but the humanity that we shared. There were several hurdles before the trip but the warmth and camaraderie of the medical team and the ACC staff and volunteers carried us through. We became a family with a shared purpose. One moment that I will never forget was when a two year old patient left her mother and came and sat on my lap during the consultation. In that simple act, she gave me her trust. It struck me that healing isn't only about treatments - it's about presence, comfort and connection. My biggest takeaway from this mission is that service is as much about resilience as it is about compassion. I learned that even in unfamiliar places, kindness bridges every gap.

我的第一次…
纳米比亚义诊的感动与领悟

回首人生第一次踏上纳米比亚医疗义诊之旅，最深刻留在我心里的，并不仅仅是我们所提供的医疗服务，而是人与人之间最真挚的情感连结。

出发前，这趟旅程曾经历不少挑战与波折，但医疗团队、ACC同仁及所有义工伙伴所给予的温暖、关怀与团结，让我们携手跨越了一个又一个难关。来自不同背景的我们，因为同一个信念而相聚，也因为同一份爱而凝聚，最终成为一个彼此扶持、携手同行的大家庭。

义诊期间，有一个画面至今仍深深烙印在我的心中。

一位年仅两岁的小女孩，在看诊过程中，竟然离开妈妈，主动走到我身边，静静地坐在我的腿上。就在那一刻，她毫无保留地把信任交给了我。那份纯真而真诚的依靠，让我深深体会到，真正的疗愈，从来不只是药物或治疗，而是在病患最需要的时候，给予他们陪伴、安慰，以及一份发自内心的关怀。

这次义诊带给我最大的收获，是让我明白——服务他人，不仅需要慈悲，更需要坚韧；不仅需要专业，更需要一颗愿意同行的心。

我也深深相信，无论身处世界哪个角落，无论语言、文化或国界如何不同，只要怀着善意与爱，便能跨越所有隔阂，连接每一颗心，也让希望在人与人之间不断延续。

2026新加坡ACC纳米比亚义诊纪实｜感动花絮二

记得在义诊倒数的最后两天，有一名年轻男子，手里拎着一个塞满衣物和拖鞋的背包，独自走进了牙科诊室。

第一眼见到他时，大家都被他的身形震住了。

一位22岁的大男生，体重却只有仅仅40公斤。

一个本该正值青春年华的年轻人，身体却瘦弱得令人心疼。他嘴里长满了大大小小的肿瘤，严重到已经无法正常进食，甚至连水都喝不下。

牙科医生看到他的情况后，立即意识到这已经不是单纯的牙科问题，必须尽快交由外科医生处理。

然而，当大家准备替他安排交通时，才发现一个令人心酸的事—

这名年轻人来自另一个小镇叫Otavi。

为了能够看上医生，他不是搭车来的，而是靠着自己的双脚，一路从Otavi走到了Otjiwarongo。

没有人知道他究竟走了多久。

只知道，当他终于来到医院时，身体已经疲惫不堪，脸上写满了饥饿与虚弱，却依然靠着最后的一点力气，坚持着走进诊室，向医生求救。

而更令人心酸的是，他没有家人。

当地病人如果需要住院动手术，通常都必须自行准备被单，因为医院无法提供。因此，许多病患身边都会有家属帮忙准备。

可是他什么都没有。

没有家人，没有人替他准备被单，也没有人可以陪他住院，更没有人可以在他需要的时候，为他支付交通费。

这个22岁的年轻人，家里只剩下他自己。

外科医生看过他的情况后，没有多说一句话，立即决定安排他住院，隔天进行手术。

当医生真正进入手术室后，才发现情况远比想象中棘手。

他的口腔内长满了不同大小的肿瘤，手术过程异常困难，过程中甚至一度出现持续出血的情况。

面对这样的状况，医生没有放弃。

在医院现有设备及医疗条件有限的情况下，医疗团队只能尽最大的能力，为他切除最主要、最影响生活的肿瘤。

他们这一次手术的目标很简单，却对这个年轻人意义重大：
先让他能够喝水，能够吃东西。

由于Otjiwarongo医院的设备条件并不适合进行更大型、复杂的手术，医生无法在这里一次性将所有肿瘤彻底清除。

他之后仍然需要前往纳米比亚的首都医院接受进一步治疗。

下一阶段的手术将更加复杂，需要切开脸颊，才能彻底清除深层的肿瘤，甚至可能需要从大腿取出部分骨骼进行移植。

这是一场风险极高、也漫长的治疗。

可是至少，这一次，他终于可以重新喝下一口水，吃上一口食物。

义诊最后一天，我们来到病房查看他的术后情况。

看到他一个人躺在那里，我们心里始终放不下。

医生也不忍心看着这个举目无亲的年轻人。
他连回家的车费都没有。

于是，医生没有多说什么，只是默默地从自己的口袋里拿出一些钱，塞到他的手里。

恰巧在前一晚，我们几人刚好也凑了一笔钱，希望能够给这个年轻人一点帮助，让他能够暂时解决眼前的困难，也希望他能够坚强地走下去。

临别前，医生紧紧握着他的手，叮嘱他：
“一定要把身体养好，多吃一些有营养的食物。等身体恢复了，才有足够的力量接受下一次手术。”

而最让我们感到欣慰的，是手术后的他，已经出现了明显的改变。

还记得他刚来到医院的时候，因为口腔肿瘤严重影响声道，他完全无法说话。

可是手术之后，他终于能够清楚地说话。

那一刻，大家才真正感受到，这场手术对他而言意味着什么。

我们后来好奇地问他：
“你是怎么知道这里有义诊？为什么会来到这里？”

他的回答，却让我们所有人都愣了一下。
他说：
“我不知道这里有来自新加坡的医疗团队。”

原来，他根本不知道义诊团的存在。
他只是因为身体实在撑不下去了，才独自从Otavi走来医院，想要寻找帮助。
而偏偏就在那一天、那个时间，他走进了我们的义诊现场。

如果早一天，或许遇不到我们。
如果晚一天，或许也错过了。
没有人安排，没有人介绍，也没有人告诉他这里正在义诊。

他只是走来了，而我们刚好在那里。

也许，这就是人与人之间难以言说的缘分。

我们不知道这是不是所谓的“福报”，但至少在那一天，这个已经走了很远、很累、很饿，几乎走到人生尽头的22岁年轻人，终于遇见了一群愿意伸手帮助他的人。

而对于我们而言，这也是这趟跨越万里的义诊旅程中，最难忘的一次相遇。

医生可以暂时替他切除肿瘤，却无法替他走完未来的治疗之路。

我们能够给予他的，也许只是一场手术、一点车费、一份营养，以及几句鼓励。

但我们衷心希望，这些微小的帮助，能够成为他继续活下去的力量。

愿他把身体养好，勇敢面对下一场手术。
愿他未来的日子里，不再只有一个人。
也愿他记得——
在他最无助、最需要帮助的时候，曾经有一群来自万里之外的人，握着他的手，告诉他：
“你一定要好起来。”

Singapore ACC Namibia Medical Mission | Moments That Touched Our Hearts (Part II)

When Hope Walked Through the Hospital Doors

Among the countless patients we met during our final days of the medical mission, there is one young man whose story will remain etched in our hearts forever.

He arrived at the dental clinic carrying nothing more than an old backpack, stuffed with a few pieces of clothing and a pair of slippers.

He came alone.

The moment we saw him, everyone fell silent.

He was 22 years old, yet he weighed barely 40 kilograms.

At an age when life should have been filled with dreams, possibilities, and boundless energy, his frail body spoke instead of pain, exhaustion, and silent suffering.

His mouth was overwhelmed by multiple tumors—so extensive that he could no longer eat. Even swallowing a sip of water had become an unbearable struggle.

The dental surgeon immediately recognized that this was far beyond a dental condition. Time was no longer on his side. He urgently needed surgical intervention.

As we began arranging transport for him, another heartbreaking truth emerged.

He had come from the small town of Otavi, Namibia.

He hadn’t arrived by bus.
He hadn’t been driven by a family member or friend.

He had walked.

Alone.

No one knows how many hours—or perhaps days—it took him to make that journey from Otavi to Otjiwarongo.

By the time he reached the hospital, every step must have demanded the last ounce of strength he had left. His face reflected hunger, dehydration, and overwhelming fatigue, yet somehow he found the courage to walk into the clinic and quietly ask for help.

Then came another painful discovery.

He had no family.

Patients admitted for surgery at the local hospital are normally expected to bring their own bedsheets because the hospital simply cannot provide them. Most have relatives who prepare these necessities and stay by their side.

But he had no one.

No family to comfort him.
No one to prepare the things he needed.
No one to sit beside his hospital bed.
No one to pay for his journey home.

At just twenty-two years old, he was completely alone in this world.

After examining him, the surgical team made their decision immediately.

Without hesitation, they admitted him for surgery the very next day.

Only when the operation began did the full extent of his condition become painfully clear.

Tumors of varying sizes filled his oral cavity. The surgery was exceptionally challenging, and at one point, persistent bleeding threatened to complicate the procedure even further.

Yet giving up was never an option.

Working with limited equipment and scarce medical resources, the surgeons focused on removing the largest tumors—the ones preventing him from performing the simplest acts of living.

The objective was modest by medical standards, but life-changing for him:

To let him drink water again.

To let him eat again.

The hospital in Otjiwarongo was not equipped for the far more extensive reconstructive surgery he would eventually require.

His journey was far from over.

He would later need to travel to Namibia’s capital for a far more complex operation—one that may require surgeons to open his cheek to reach the deeper tumors and even reconstruct portions of his jaw using bone grafts taken from his thigh.

The road ahead would be long.

Painful.

Uncertain.

But for the first time in a very long while, hope had returned.

At least now, he could once again take a sip of water.

At least now, he could finally eat.

⸻

On the final day of our mission, we visited him in the ward.

Seeing him lying there alone was something none of us could forget.

The doctors could not bear the thought that this young man had no one waiting for him—not even enough money to return home after being discharged.

Without saying a word, one of the surgeons quietly reached into her own pocket and placed some money into the young man’s hand.

The night before, several members of our team had also come together to contribute what we could, hoping to ease his immediate burdens and remind him that, even if only for a moment, he was no longer alone.

Before leaving, the doctor held his hand tightly and gently said,

“Take good care of yourself. Eat nutritious food. Regain your strength, so you’ll be ready for your next surgery.”

Those simple words carried far more than medical advice.

They carried compassion.

They carried dignity.

Most of all, they carried hope.

⸻

Perhaps the greatest joy came when we saw him after surgery.

When he first arrived, the tumors had compressed his airway and affected his speech so severely that he could barely utter a word.

But after the operation…

He spoke.

Clearly.

For the first time, we heard his voice.

In that moment, every hour spent in the operating theatre, every drop of sweat, every challenge the medical team had faced suddenly became worthwhile.

Curious, we asked him,

“How did you know our Singapore medical team was here?”

His answer stopped all of us in our tracks.

“I didn’t know.”

He had no idea that an overseas humanitarian medical mission was taking place.

He simply knew he could no longer endure the pain.

So he walked.

Alone.

Seeking help.

By what many would simply call coincidence, he arrived at the hospital on the very days our team was serving there.

Had he come a day earlier, we might never have met.

Had he come a day later, the opportunity would have slipped away.

No one directed him here.

No one told him about the mission.

No one planned this meeting.

He simply arrived…

…and we just happened to be there.

Perhaps some encounters cannot be explained by chance alone.

Perhaps they are moments where compassion quietly finds those who need it most.

That day, a young man who had walked through hunger, loneliness, and unimaginable hardship finally found people willing to walk a part of his journey with him.

For us, it became one of the most unforgettable encounters of this mission across continents.

The surgeons could remove his tumors, but they could not walk the difficult road of treatment that still lies ahead.

What we could offer was only a surgery.

A little financial support.

Some nourishment.

A few words of encouragement.

They may have seemed like small acts.

But sometimes, the smallest acts of kindness become the greatest reasons for someone to keep living.

Today, we pray that he regains his strength.

That he faces his next operation with courage.

That the future will no longer feel so lonely.

And above all, we hope he will always remember this:

That in the darkest chapter of his life, when he had almost reached the end of his strength, there was a group of strangers from thousands of miles away who reached out, held his hand, looked him in the eyes, and gently told him—

“You are not alone. Please get well.
The world is still hoping for you.”

2026新加坡ACC纳米比亚义诊纪实 | 感动花絮一

［ • 跪着完成的手术，是医者最美的身影 •］

为期一星期的义诊虽然已经结束，但有些感动想用文字记录。

义诊期间，手术室里没有先进齐全的设备，没有宽敞舒适的环境，甚至连最基本的手术条件，也远远比不上我们平日所见医院该有的模样。

然而，这些都没有成为医疗团队停下脚步的理由。

为了能够顺利完成一台又一台手术，我们看见了一幕令人动容的画面——医生毫不犹豫地跪在冰冷的地板上，为病人进行手术及缝合伤口。

没有人抱怨环境艰苦，也没有人计较姿势是否舒适。
他们心里只有一个念头：只要能够让病人得到治疗，其他一切都不重要。

除了外科医生，其他专科医生同样忙得几乎没有喘息的时间。每天诊室外都坐满等待看诊的病患，许多人一早便从不同地区赶来，只为了争取这难得的医疗机会。

面对络绎不绝的病患，医生们几乎没有时间停下来休息。原本安排好的午餐时间，一次又一次延后；桌上的便当放凉了，也没有人急着去吃。因为在他们眼前，还有一位又一位等待帮助的病人。

有的医生忙到下午才匆匆吃上几口饭，有的医生甚至连午餐都没吃。

在他们眼里，病人的需要，永远比自己的饥饿更重要。

或许，对这些医生而言，跪在地上完成手术、错过一顿午餐，只是义诊中的一个小片段；但对接受治疗的病人来说，却可能是一生都难以忘记的恩情。

义诊期间，我们看见的不只是医生们高超的医术，更看见了医者最珍贵的初心。

当镜头记录下医生跪在地上缝合伤口的那一刻，我们相信，这不仅是一张照片，更是一份医者精神最真实的写照。

他们弯下的是身体，托起的，却是病人重新燃起的希望。

向所有参与此次纳米比亚义诊的医生与医疗团队，致上最深的敬意。

谢谢您们，用行动诠释了什么是医者仁心，也让我们看见了，大爱没有距离，善行没有国界。

2026 Singapore ACC Namibia Medical Mission

Behind the Mission
(Part 1)

A Surgery Performed on Bended Knees — The Most Beautiful Portrait of a Healer …

Although our week-long medical mission has come to an end, there are moments of compassion too profound to be forgotten— moments that deserve to be preserved in words.

Throughout the mission, the operating theatre bore little resemblance to the hospitals we are accustomed to. There were no state-of-the-art facilities, no spacious operating rooms, and often not even the basic conditions one would expect for surgery.

Yet none of these limitations became a reason to stop.

Instead, they revealed something far more powerful than modern medicine could ever provide—the unwavering spirit of those who had come to heal.

To complete one life-changing surgery after another, our doctors did something that moved everyone who witnessed it.

Without the slightest hesitation, they knelt on the cold, unforgiving floor to operate and carefully stitch their patients’ wounds.

No one complained about the harsh conditions.

No one spoke of discomfort.

Their minds were fixed on only one purpose:

If a patient could receive the treatment they desperately needed, nothing else mattered.

Beyond the operating theatre, every consultation room told the same story of quiet sacrifice.

Specialists from every discipline worked relentlessly from dawn until dusk. Outside their clinics, long queues of patients stretched through the hospital grounds. Many had travelled for hours from distant communities, arriving before sunrise for the rare opportunity to receive medical care.

The stream of patients never seemed to end.

Lunch breaks that had been carefully scheduled were postponed again and again. Packed meals sat untouched, growing cold on the table, as doctor after doctor chose to remain with the patients waiting outside.

Some physicians only managed to grab a few hurried bites late in the afternoon.

Others never ate lunch at all.

Because in their hearts, a patient’s suffering always came before their own hunger.

To these doctors, kneeling on the floor to perform surgery or missing a meal may have seemed like nothing more than small moments in the course of a medical mission.

But to the patients whose pain was relieved, whose wounds were healed, and whose lives were forever changed, those moments became acts of kindness they would carry in their hearts for a lifetime.

Throughout this mission, we witnessed far more than remarkable medical expertise.

We witnessed the true calling of medicine.

A calling rooted in compassion, humility, selflessness, and an unwavering commitment to serve.

When the camera captured a doctor kneeling on the floor while delicately suturing a patient’s wound, it captured more than a photograph.

It captured the very soul of what it means to be a healer.

They bent their knees…

…so that others could stand again with hope.

To every doctor, nurse, volunteer, and member of the medical team who served in this Namibia Medical Mission, we extend our deepest respect and heartfelt gratitude.

Thank you for showing the world that medicine is more than a profession—it is compassion in action.

Thank you for reminding us that true healing knows no distance, that kindness recognizes no borders, and that the greatest acts of humanity are measured not by where we serve, but by how deeply we choose to care.

2026新加坡ACC纳米比亚义诊纪实（圆满报导）

历经数月筹备，由新加坡阿弥陀佛关怀中心（ACC）与 Global Clinic 联合发起的纳米比亚义诊团，已于日前圆满完成为期一周的医疗服务，为当地数百位民众送上专业医疗与温暖关怀，也为新加坡与纳米比亚之间的医疗合作写下新的篇章。

此次义诊团应纳米比亚卫生与社会服务部（Ministry of Health and Social Services）正式邀请，由来自新加坡、马来西亚及英国共24位医疗专业人员组成，包括外科、妇产科、小儿科、皮肤科、牙科等专科医生，以及护理人员和行政志工，不远万里飞越超过9,000公里，前往纳米比亚展开人道医疗服务。

在出发前，医疗团队经历了数个月的筹备与协调。虽然因进口许可审批程序未能及时完成，原本准备运往当地的药物最终无法带入纳米比亚，但团队仍克服重重困难，携带各项医疗仪器与专业设备前往当地，以实际行动兑现对当地民众的承诺。

义诊期间，医疗团队分别在纳米比亚ACC院区、Otjiwarongo公立医院，以及Otavi小镇展开医疗服务。其中，牙科团队更与当地牙医携手合作，深入Otavi偏远地区，为居民提供拔牙、补牙等口腔治疗，让更多医疗资源不足的社区也能受惠。

五天医院义诊期间，共为504位病患提供专科诊疗服务，包括：

皮肤科105位
小儿科118位
妇产科87位
牙科179位（其中94位来自Otavi）
外科15位

与此同时，外科团队成功完成35项手术，包括20项全身麻醉手术、9项局部麻醉手术及6项妇产科手术，为罹患疝气、大型肿瘤等疾病的患者带来重获健康的希望。

除了提供医疗服务外，义诊团也与纳米比亚当地医护人员共同看诊、共同手术，透过专业交流分享临床经验，进一步促进双方医疗合作与技术交流。

为了让医疗关怀延续，新加坡ACC与Global Clinic此次也向Otjiwarongo公立医院捐赠两台抽吸机（Suction Machine）、一台超音波仪（Ultrasound System）及一台胎儿监护仪（Foetal Monitor）。这些医疗设备未来将持续服务当地医院，造福更多有需要的病患，让爱心不仅停留在义诊期间，更持续守护当地社区。

义诊期间，团队也礼貌拜访Otjozondjupa省省长John Julius Khamuseb先生，获得当地政府热情接待；区域卫生总监Gebhardo Timotheus先生亦亲临医院，向医疗团队表达诚挚感谢，并代表当地卫生单位接收医疗设备捐赠。

值得敬佩的是，此次参与义诊的所有医生及志工，皆自费承担机票与生活费用，并利用自己的年假参与此次人道医疗行动。团队中不少成员更是资深顾问医生、教授及专科医师，他们放下繁忙的工作，只为把专业带到医疗资源相对匮乏的地方，用行动诠释医者仁心。

自2019年起，新加坡ACC与Global Clinic携手展开非洲国际义诊，从马拉威、赖索托、史瓦帝尼，到今年的纳米比亚，持续将医疗资源带往有需要的地方。虽然义诊只有短短一周，但留下的不只是医疗数字，更是一份跨越国界的人道精神、一份专业与爱心同行的承诺。

当医疗团队踏上归途，我们带走的不是完成任务后的满足，而是一份新的责任与期许。愿今天播下的善意种子，未来继续在非洲这片土地上发芽、成长，让更多生命因为爱而看见希望。

因为医疗，不只是治疗疾病；更是在一个人最无助的时候，给予他希望；真正能够改变生命的，是那一份愿意跨越山海、无私付出的慈悲与大爱。

最后也要感谢所有参与捐赠义诊药物和医疗仪器的善心人士。因为有您们的爱心支持，才能让此趟义诊能够顺利圆满完成。

Singapore Medical Team Brings Hope to Hundreds in Namibia

A humanitarian medical team jointly organised by Singapore’s Amitofo Care Centre (ACC) and Global Clinic has successfully completed a week-long free medical mission in northern Namibia, bringing specialist healthcare services to hundreds of patients while strengthening collaboration between Singapore and Namibia.

Following an official invitation from the Namibian Ministry of Health and Social Services, a 24-member team of specialist doctors, dentists, surgeons and volunteers from Singapore, Malaysia and the United Kingdom travelled more than 9,000 kilometres to provide specialist medical care at ACC Namibia, Otjiwarongo State Hospital and an outreach dental clinic in Otavi.

The mission was the culmination of several months of planning and close coordination with the Ministry of Health. Although the team faced numerous regulatory and administrative challenges before departure, including being unable to bring the medicines they had prepared due to import permit approval delays, the mission proceeded successfully with essential medical equipment and specialist expertise.

Throughout the five-day hospital outreach, the team provided 504 specialist consultations, including 105 dermatology, 118 paediatric, 87 gynaecology, 179 dental (including 94 patients treated in Otavi), and 15 surgical consultations. The surgical team also successfully performed 35 operations, comprising 20 procedures under general anaesthesia, nine under local anaesthesia and six gynaecological surgeries, providing life-changing treatment for patients suffering from conditions such as hernias and large tumours.

Beyond patient care, the visiting specialists worked alongside Namibian doctors and nurses, sharing clinical knowledge and strengthening professional partnerships through collaborative consultations and surgeries.

As part of the mission, Singapore ACC and Global Clinic also donated two suction machines, one ultrasound system and one foetal monitor to Otjiwarongo State Hospital. The equipment will remain in service long after the medical team has returned home, benefiting thousands of future patients.

The delegation also paid a courtesy visit to Otjozondjupa Regional Governor Mr. John Julius Khamuseb, while Regional Health Director Mr. Gebhardo Timotheus visited the hospital to thank the team personally and receive the equipment donation on behalf of the region.

Every member of the delegation volunteered entirely at their own expense, taking annual leave from their professional practices to participate in the humanitarian mission. Many are senior consultants, professors and highly experienced specialists who chose to dedicate their expertise to communities with limited access to specialist healthcare.

The partnership between Singapore ACC and Global Clinic began in 2019 with humanitarian medical missions in Malawi and has since expanded to Lesotho, Eswatini and now Namibia. While the mission lasted only a week, its impact will continue through improved healthcare services, donated medical equipment and stronger international partnerships.

As the team returned home, they left behind more than successful treatments and surgeries—they left a legacy of compassion, professional collaboration and a shared commitment to improving lives through humanitarian service.

Once again, a thousand thanks to all our donors for always standing with us and supporting this medical mission. Your generosity and unwavering support made this mission possible. Without you, we could not have achieved such a successful and meaningful mission. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

2026新加坡ACC纳米比亚义诊纪实（五）

此趟义诊除了为病患提供医疗服务，也希望透过实际行动，为当地医疗体系尽一份力量。

昨天，奥乔宗朱帕区（Otjozondjupa Region）卫生总监 Mr. Gebhardo Timotheus 亲自来到 Otjiwarongo 医院，了解新加坡ACC与Global Clinic医疗团连日来的义诊情况，并向全体医护志工表达诚挚的感谢与敬意。

随后，新加坡ACCI庄燕华副总会长代表新加坡ACC及Global Clinic医疗团，正式捐赠四台医疗仪器予Otjiwarongo医院，包括两台Suction Machine（抽吸机）、一台Ultrasound（超声波仪）及一台Foetal Machine（胎儿监测仪），希望协助医院提升医疗设备，让更多病患获得更完善、更及时的医疗照护。

在移交仪式上，Mr. Gebhardo Timotheus致词时表示，医疗团远道而来，不仅为当地人民提供免费的医疗服务，更捐赠医院目前急需的医疗设备，这份无私的奉献令人深受感动。他坦言，由于医院长期缺乏相关仪器，医护人员在诊断及治疗病患时经常面临许多困难。如今有了这些设备，将大大提升医院的诊疗能力，也意味着未来能够帮助更多病患，为当地人民带来更大的福祉。

庄燕华副总会长也分享，新加坡ACC与Global Clinic的合作始于2019年，当年双方首次携手前往非洲马拉维布兰岱儿展开义诊。7年来，医疗团的足迹陆续遍及马拉维、赖索托、史瓦帝尼，如今来到纳米比亚，始终秉持着同一份初心，希望把医疗带到最需要的地方，为更多弱势群体带来健康与希望。

义诊或许只有短短几天，但留下来的医疗设备，却将继续陪伴当地医护人员服务病患，发挥长远的价值。

这份跨越国界的爱心，不仅改善了医院的医疗条件，也见证了国际医疗合作的意义，让善的力量持续在非洲这片土地上传递。

2026 Singapore ACC Medical Mission to Namibia (V)

True healing is not measured only by the patients we treat today, but by the hope we leave behind for tomorrow.

Beyond providing free medical consultations and treatment, this humanitarian mission has always carried a greater purpose—to strengthen the local healthcare system so that communities can continue receiving quality care long after the medical team has returned home.

Yesterday, the Health Director of Namibia’s Otjozondjupa Region, Mr. Gebhardo Timotheus, paid a special visit to Otjiwarongo Hospital to witness firsthand the impact of the Singapore ACC and Global Clinic medical mission. After learning about the tireless work carried out over the past few days, he personally conveyed his deepest gratitude and heartfelt respect to every doctor, nurse, and volunteer who had travelled thousands of miles to serve the people of Namibia.

During the visit, Ms. Maria Tjeng Yen Hoa, Vice President of Singapore ACC International (ACCI), officially presented a donation of four much-needed medical devices on behalf of Singapore ACC and the Global Clinic medical team to Otjiwarongo Hospital. The donation included two suction machines, one ultrasound system, and one foetal monitor—essential equipment that will help the hospital provide faster diagnoses, safer treatments, and better care for countless patients in the years to come.

Speaking at the handover ceremony, Mr. Gebhardo Timotheus shared how deeply touched he was by the generosity of the visiting medical team. Not only had they offered free medical care to hundreds of local residents, but they had also donated equipment that the hospital had long struggled to obtain.

He candidly explained that the absence of these essential instruments had often made diagnosis and treatment extremely challenging for healthcare workers. With these new additions, the hospital’s medical capabilities will be significantly strengthened, enabling doctors and nurses to care for more patients with greater confidence, accuracy, and hope. More importantly, this gift will continue to improve the well-being of the local community for many years ahead.

Ms. Maria also reflected on the enduring partnership between Singapore ACC and Global Clinic, a journey that began in 2019 with their very first humanitarian medical mission to Blantyre, Malawi. Over the past 7 years, their shared commitment has brought them across Malawi, Lesotho, Eswatini, and now Namibia—guided by one unwavering mission: to bring compassionate healthcare to places where it is needed most, and to restore hope to those who have too often been forgotten.

While the medical mission itself lasts only a few short days, the equipment left behind will continue serving the hands that heal. Every examination conducted, every expectant mother monitored, every life saved through these machines will become a lasting reminder that compassion does not end when the volunteers board their flight home.

This is the true legacy of humanitarian service.

A legacy where kindness crosses borders, generosity transcends distance, and hearts from different nations come together with one shared purpose—to heal, to uplift, and to remind the world that even the smallest act of compassion can leave an impact that endures for generations.

Because when love is given without expecting anything in return, its echoes never fade.

2026新加坡ACC纳米比亚义诊纪实（四）

随着义诊进入第三天，Otjiwarongo医院依旧挤满了前来求诊的病患。天刚亮，医院内早已排起长长的人龙，许多病患为了不错过这难得的机会，不惜从偏远地区长途跋涉而来，只盼望能够获得专科医生的诊治。

面对源源不断的病患，医疗团队几乎没有停下脚步。无论是牙科、外科、妇科、皮肤专科或儿童疾病专科，每一位医生都专注地问诊、检查，并耐心向病患说明病情及后续照护方式，希望让他们不仅得到治疗，更能建立正确的健康观念。

随着义诊持续进行，医疗团队与当地医护人员之间的配合也越来越有默契。从问诊、检查到治疗建议，双方一边医治病患，一边交流临床经验，在共同照护病患的过程中，也促进了彼此专业上的学习与成长。

一张张等待看诊的脸庞、一声声真诚的道谢，这趟远赴纳米比亚的义诊，不只是完成一项医疗任务，而是用实际行动回应当地民众最迫切的医疗需求。接下来的日子，团队也将继续坚守岗位，为他们争取一个更健康的未来。

2026 Singapore ACC Medical Mission to Namibia (IV)
Where Compassion Never Rests

As the medical mission entered its third day, Otjiwarongo Hospital remained filled with an unending stream of patients. Before the first rays of dawn broke across the Namibian sky, long queues had already formed outside the hospital. Many had travelled for hours—some even days—from remote villages, enduring arduous journeys with a single hope in their hearts: the chance to be seen by a specialist and receive the care they had long gone without.

Faced with the overwhelming number of patients, the medical team pressed on tirelessly. From dentistry, general surgery, gynaecology and dermatology to paediatrics, every consultation was carried out with unwavering dedication. Each doctor listened attentively, examined every patient with meticulous care, and patiently explained their diagnosis and treatment plan. Beyond providing medical care, they sought to empower every individual with the knowledge to better care for their own health and that of their families.

As the days unfolded, a remarkable partnership blossomed between the Singapore medical team and the local healthcare professionals. Side by side, they worked seamlessly through consultations, examinations and treatment planning. More than caring for patients together, they exchanged clinical knowledge, shared experiences and learned from one another—building bridges of friendship and professional collaboration that will continue to benefit the community long after the mission ends.

Every hopeful face waiting patiently for treatment, every heartfelt smile, every sincere “thank you” spoken in gratitude served as a powerful reminder of why this journey mattered. This mission to Namibia was never merely about delivering medical services. It was about bringing hope where healthcare is scarce, restoring dignity to those who had waited far too long for help, and demonstrating that compassion knows no borders.

In the days ahead, the team will continue to serve with steadfast commitment, embracing every patient with skill, kindness and love—doing all they can to help build a healthier, brighter future for the people of Namibia, one life at a time.

一早，医疗团队受邀前往纳米比亚奥乔宗朱帕省（Otjozondjupa Region）议会厅，礼貌拜会省长 Mr John Julius Khamuseb。

省长对新加坡ACC及Global Clinic医疗团队远道而来，为纳米比亚人民提供免费医疗服务表达崇高敬意，并感谢医生们不畏舟车劳顿，以专业与爱心帮助当地有需要的民众。

结束拜访后，医疗团队随即赶回Otjiwarongo医院，争分夺秒投入义诊工作。

抵达医院后，医生们迅速分为牙科，以及外科、妇科、皮肤专科和儿童疾病专科等诊疗组，与当地医护人员完成简报后，便立即展开第一轮看诊。

义诊首日的求诊人数远超团队预期。一大早，医院便挤满前来候诊的民众，许多人更是从偏远地区长途跋涉，只为把握这难得的专科诊疗机会。

首日求诊的病例以身体及脸部长有脂肪瘤、小肠气（疝气）等外科疾病居多，其次为妇科疾病、皮肤问题及儿童疾病。面对络绎不绝的病患，医疗团队始终耐心问诊、细心检查，希望尽己所能，为每一位患者减轻病痛，也将温暖与希望带到这片土地。

2026 Singapore ACC Medical Mission to Namibia (III)

Where Compassion Crosses Borders, Hope Begins to Heal

Yesterday marked the first day of the joint humanitarian medical mission by Singapore ACC and the Global Clinic medical team at Otjiwarongo Hospital in northern Namibia.

Before the day’s clinics began, the medical delegation was graciously invited to the Otjozondjupa Regional Council, where they paid a courtesy visit to the Governor, Mr. John Julius Khamuseb.

In his welcoming remarks, Governor Khamuseb expressed his deepest appreciation to the Singapore ACC and Global Clinic teams for travelling thousands of kilometres to bring free specialist medical care to the people of Namibia. He paid tribute to the doctors and volunteers for setting aside the comforts of home, enduring the long journey, and offering not only their professional expertise, but also their compassion and unwavering commitment to those most in need.

Following the visit, the team headed straight to Otjiwarongo Hospital, eager to begin what would become an extraordinary day of service.

Upon arrival, the medical professionals quickly organised themselves into specialist teams—including dental care, general surgery, gynaecology, dermatology and paediatrics. After a briefing with the local healthcare staff, consultations began without delay.

From the very first morning, it became clear that the need was far greater than anyone had anticipated.

Long before the clinics opened, the hospital grounds were already filled with patients waiting patiently for their turn. Many had travelled for hours—some from remote rural communities—holding onto the hope that this rare opportunity to receive specialist treatment might finally bring relief to years of pain and uncertainty.

The majority of patients presented with surgical conditions such as lipomas and hernias, while many others sought care for gynaecological conditions, skin disorders and childhood illnesses.

Despite the overwhelming number of patients, every doctor remained fully present with each individual they encountered. Every consultation was met with attentive listening. Every examination was carried out with patience and dignity. Every diagnosis reflected not only medical expertise, but also the belief that every life deserves to be seen, heard and cared for.

For the team, healing was never merely about treating illness—it was about restoring hope, preserving dignity and reminding every patient that they were not forgotten.

When professional excellence meets boundless compassion, and when kindness knows no borders, every consultation becomes far more than a medical encounter. It becomes a bridge between nations, cultures and hearts.

Across thousands of kilometres, from Singapore to Namibia, this journey has become more than a humanitarian mission. It is a living testament to the extraordinary things that can happen when people choose to serve with love.

Because sometimes, the greatest medicine is not found in a prescription.

It is found in the gentle reassurance of caring hands, the warmth of a compassionate heart, and the simple yet profound reminder that no one should have to suffer alone.

When medical expertise is guided by compassion, and love transcends borders, every consultation becomes more than a clinical encounter—it becomes an act of humanity.

Every patient treated, every hand held, and every word of comfort shared gave deeper meaning to this journey across thousands of kilometres. Beyond healing bodies, the team brought hope to weary hearts and reminded the people of Namibia that they are not alone.

From Singapore came not only skilled doctors, but also hearts filled with kindness, humility and love. Through every act of care, the people of Namibia experienced the warmth of genuine human compassion—a powerful reminder that while oceans may separate us, humanity has the extraordinary ability to unite us.

For in the end, the greatest gift we can offer is not simply medicine, but the assurance that every life matters, every person deserves dignity, and compassion is a language understood by all.
