Malaria continues to pose a daily threat in this area. Through Kawan Against Malaria, we monitor cases, test all fevers, protect homes, and educate families. The use of bed nets, spraying, and prompt treatment turns statistical data into lives that endure quietly, rather than ending prematurely.

True stories. Real people. Humanitarian action in motion.
Here youâll find stories from the fieldâ100% real, 100% original. Every article is written by us, by those who live these moments, walk these roads, and treat these illnesses. We write them by hand, after the long days, often from tents or remote villages, because we believe in showing whatâs real.
The people, the lives, the wounds, the repairsâthis is not fiction. This is our daily reality in ultra-rural Indonesia. Every photo is taken by us. Every word comes from those who act. From emergency responses and clean water to child health and malaria cases, these stories reflect both the daily struggles and the incredible strength of those we serve.
Our News page is more than just updates. Itâs a record of direct action. A collection of emotions, medical cases, construction progress, and social encounters. We donât write for clicksâwe write for those who care, those who want to know, and those who support our mission.
Itâs raw, human, sometimes difficult, but always true. Read them, share them, let them move you. This is how change beginsâwith knowledge, emotion, and connection.
