HAND’s first clinic is located in the village of Zhiziluo in the Fugong County of Yunnan. It overlooks the magnificent NuJiang(Furious River) which runs from Tibet into Burma and on to Vietnam, meandering through mountains 3,000 metres high.

这是从乐夫爱心诊所所在的怒江州福贡县怒族人村寨知子罗村望下来的怒江照片。怒江，顾名思义“愤怒的江”，是云南省西边未开发的最大的江，它从西藏起源，流过3000多米高的峡谷，流入缅甸。

The homes of the Nu and LiSu line the mountains of the NuJiang where the land is more fertile, families being able to trace their respective histories back hundreds of years. Both the beauty and poverty of the area are striking.

在3000多米高山上的怒族人的村寨（见山背上的白点），现代的生活基本供给很难到达。怒族人辈辈自生自灭，特别是有病难求医，更无钱求医，大多病死在家中。

The isolation of the Pihe villages means that they have not seen the fruits of China’s surging economy.

美丽的被遗弃的昔日的怒江州府（碧江县），现在是怒族人的知子罗村，乐夫爱心诊所就坐落在这个怒族人中心村寨之中。

The fastest way to cross the NuJiang, not for the fainthearted!

怒江上的桥，怒族村民每次过桥都要心惊胆跳一番。

The lives of around 80% of the Nu and LiSu people revolve around the local Churches, some of which literally sit in the clouds. Hearing the congregation sing unaccompanied hymns taught to them by missionaries and passed down the generations is a truly moving experience, regardless of your beliefs

教堂是怒族村寨里最豪华的房子，怒族人将一生中最重要的事都与教堂联系起来，因为在那里他们找得到可以追溯二百多年前的信仰。

One of the many ill equipped clinics, set up then forgotten about by the state. The level of training possessed by local doctors is usually minimal at best.

每个怒族村寨都有一个很基本的政府安排的卫生所，但极其缺乏药物和受过正式医疗知识培训的乡村医生。

Our local doctor He Ming Yi, hand picked and having undergone a training programme especially designed for the needs of the area at LiuKu hospital. The doctors who taught He Ming Yi told us that he worked tirelessly and with real intelligence. Foreign medical staff have since verified that he is able to apply these skills in the field after observing him work for a sustained period.
