BANGKA -- Free healthcare services through PT Timah's Mobile Clinic, as part of the company's 49th Anniversary celebration in Bangka Regency, were met with great enthusiasm from the community. A total of 130 residents visited the Mobile Clinic at the Engineering and Mine Support Division office yard in Sungailiat, Bangka Regency, on Wednesday (July 23, 2025).
PT Timah's Mobile Clinic has traveled thousands of kilometers, reaching remote villages to provide healthcare services to the community. Through this initiative, PT Timah aims to improve the overall quality of public health.
As part of the company’s 49th anniversary, which carries the theme "For the Red and White," the Mobile Clinic has provided healthcare services to communities in Belitung Regency, Central Bangka Regency, Karimun Regency, and Jakarta.
In Bangka Regency, hundreds of residents patiently lined up and took queue numbers in an orderly manner to access the next steps of the healthcare services.
Diana Ismail, a resident of Nang Nung who had just received free healthcare services from the mobile clinic, expressed her happiness at receiving quality care from the Mobile Clinic team.
“Alhamdulillah, I’m happy to have had my health checked in the mobile clinic. I had my blood pressure, blood sugar, and cholesterol tested. The doctor said my sugar level was high, so they advised me to reduce my sugar intake,” she said with a shy smile.
She and her husband deliberately came to get a free check-up from PT Timah’s Mobile Clinic to maintain their health.
