A Community Doctor in Miri: Memoir of a Malaysian Public Health Pioneer

Step into the journey of a young doctor who arrived in Miri, Sarawak in 1983 — a remote coastal town then only accessible by rough, unsealed roads or expensive air travel. What began as a simple medical posting soon evolved into a life dedicated to public health amidst a rapidly changing landscape.

This memoir captures the transformation of Miri from a quiet, isolated town into an urbanized hub in the 1990s. With development came public health challenges: a surge in squatter populations, poor sanitation, and outbreaks of cholera, dengue, and malaria. The 1996–97 El Niño worsened conditions, hitting rural communities hard with widespread disease.

Told through the eyes of a dedicated public health doctor, this book offers powerful real-life stories of health workers battling extreme jungle conditions, limited resources, and social hardships to deliver healthcare to underserved communities. These accounts of courage, sacrifice, and resilience highlight the human side of medicine and the deep commitment to community well-being.

Perfect for readers interested in healthcare, public health, Sarawak history, or inspiring real-life memoirs.
