Médecins Sans Frontières: Everyone, Everywhere Deserves High Quality Care

Founded in 1971 by a group of journalists and doctors, more than 50 years later Médecins Sans Frontières or Doctors Without Borders is now a familiar name to many. Over the decades, MSF has worked in various crisis and conflict situations across the globe - which is what most of us know them for - but their work also extends beyond that to provide healthcare to marginalised communities. Here to share more about what MSF does globally and right here in Malaysia, is Dr Christos Christou, International President of MSF.
