SRPI conducts 10th outreach mission

PDFPrintE-mail

The San Ramon Power, Inc. (SRPI) conducted last Tuesday a medical-dental outreach mission in barangay Ayala, one of several such missions since the program started two years ago.

SRPI Officer-in-Charge Archie Donato said that more than 500 residents of Ayala benefitted from the mission which is part of the social responsibility and community relations program of the company that intends to put up a coal-fired power plant in San Ramon, this city.

About 400 beneficiaries availed of the free medical services, 37 residents were dental patients and 190 boys were circumcised under the “Operation Tuli” program, Donato said. (Please see related photos on p.3)

Those who voluntarily took part in the missions were representatives from the Western Mindanao Command (Wesmincom), Philippine National Police (PNP), student nurses, City Health Office and a doctor from the Zamboanga City Medical Society.

The activity started at eight o’clock in the morning and ended at two o’clock in the afternoon at the Ayala Hall and covered court.

Most men in the world are not circumcised with no ill-effects. The English-speaking world tried the experiment: 60 years ago almost all boys in Australia and New Zealand were circumcised, now hardly any are. We enjoy excellent health, compared to, say, the USA, which is slower in giving it up.

The medical benefits of circumcision are all bogus or exaggerated - slight reductions in rare ailments of late onset that are better prevented by other means or treated as they occur. (It would be hard to prove this scientifically, but it makes sense that non-circumcised men enjoy sex more because we have more to enjoy it with, specialised for the purpose.)

Peer pressure for no good purpose is a terrible thing.
