In the interview, MAKNA's
Senior Volunteer, Mr. Jacob Mathews from Banting, talks about his past
harrowing struggles with cancer. The support from his family members provided
him hope and courage to fight on till he was able to stand tall again, and put
the bad experience behind him.

In this video, MAKNA
Deputy General Manager, Mr. Vemanna Appannah, the other interviewee for the session
speaks about World Cancer Day and MAKNA's programmes lined up for the
celebration besides its other present and current projects.
Today,
volunteers like Mr. Jacob and others, spend their time, effort and energy
providing comfort to patients, encouraging them to stay strong and go for the
necessary treatments in order to have a better chance of recovery. It is common for cancer patients to find it
easier to relate to someone who has had cancer before. This helps in the
cultivation of a better overall understanding of cancer and how to deal with
the disease.
