The meeting point is usually situated at Jalan Hang Lekiu, in front of Segi College, KL. They usually meet up at 9.30 pm to set up shop – a collection of makeshift tables and chairs all methodically placed – as if they have been doing this many, many times already.
There are makeshift tables for the clinic’s new clients who register under Kechara Soup Kitchen Society, a charitable non-profit organization inspired by H.E. Tsem Rinpoche to help the needy and marginalized community.
There are also makeshift tables for returning patients all arranged on the sidewalk of the street.
After a patient registers, they move on to another table where their blood pressure and sugar level are checked, and then they go to designated tables for their doctor’s consultation, all free of charge.
After seeing the doctors, they move on to the pharmacist’s table to collect their medicines.
