 Day One of program for all our 200 children to have free dental check-up.....Thank you Dr Tang!
And thank you Marco Polo Center Nurse Zhou and teachers for arrangements
 (small world: one of Dr Tang's nurses and Nurse Zhou used to work together at same hospital).
For nearly all our children - their very first time ever to have a dental check-up.
Next stage of program:  dental treatment for those children who need it,
at 70% of normal fee (thank you again Dr Tang....and a possible sponsor from Shanghai,
introduced by Melbourne David  - in photos below with HK Christopher)
