The mission was efficiently managed, even though there were about 100 more patients than expected. Volunteers and staff were warm and friendly, putting the patients at ease.
Remarked one the beneficiaries: “Smooth ang proseso. Ang bilis ng mga doctor. Tapos hindi gaanong crowded, maiksi ang pila, may upuan naman. At may palugaw pa. Nakakatuwa! (The process was smooth. The doctors worked swiftly. It wasn’t too crowded; the queues were short, and chairs were available. There was even free congee. How nice!)”
