16. Timon's Report - Inequity of supplies


Next is Ringo posing, displaying the supplies he just received with the limited funding from CDSI. 






The next picture gives the reality contrast about running a Dental facility and another Health service provision facility.  



Here is the lot of drugs given to the health Centre. 

As I explained previously concerning the limitation of supplies in Butembo, I decided to leave everything I brought there because they are busier than the two other clinics in Aru and Mahagi. This is a boost because they struggle to get these things here, and also  the quality of products that we brought is better, said Ringo.

The contrast on the other side
At the Health Centre
The Congolese government so far does not run or fund health facilities therefore International NGOs are coming to the rescue of  the people of Congo who suffer from lack of health services by providing what is called essential drugs in health centres, which is good and we are really grateful for these charitable organisations that are coming to save lives.
The inequality, however,  is then visible when it comes to other health sectors like Dentistry where nothing is provided.
