Japanese NGO Health Care Project in Laos
A few weeks ago one Japanese NGO traveled to Champassak Province with their mobile clinic to provide free health services for those that were living too far from a hospital and also can’t afford certain procedures. There were two teams, one is a surgical team and another a dental team. The two teams visited several villages in two weeks time (last week of April to first week of May) to provide health care services to those in need. Here are some photos and clips from the dental team. The goal of the project was to promote good dental hygiene to young children and also provided free dental check ups and dental works like cleaning, tooth extraction, and other dental works.

Any info about which village was this? I have family in Champassak! The little kids remind me of my little cousins.
Hi Nokkie,
I’ll ask my aunt in Vientiane this weekend and will let you know what village these photos are from. She told me before but I totally forgot the name.

Nice project.
I like the new site design by the way.
Hi Elgin,
Thanks for your kind remark.
Hi Nai Nok,
I found out the name of the village. It is Ban Houay Nam Sai.
