Comments and/or ideas arising from the activity :

It is need to put a big effort on publication to reach many people so that this activity could impact many people. This kind of activity also is a great opportunity to establish a

mutual interprofession collaboration among healthcare students and profession. We can see doctors, nurses, dentists, and pharmacists work together to improve public health. To see other people’s happy faces when taking part in the activity, it’s just
