DIARY FROM THE FRONTLINE
South Sudanese men that day . The team were excited . The relocation happened successfully . Finally for the first time in Bentiu we had a Central Pharmacy and a Medical Warehouse in 2 separate structures .
We did a similar set up to relocate the logistical warehouse and suddenly these congested warehouses begin to look very spacious . They could now accommodate tonnes of supplies .
And this was just one of my projects .
While all this clean up and organisation of the warehouse and Central Pharmacy was happening , I was liaising with the supply team and flight coordinator in Loki to fly in supplies via Cessna caravans , Antonov , and cargo planes . The four and half months just flew by . It was the fastest four and half months of my life . We transported 80 tonnes of cargo in four South Sudanese monsoon months . MSF team , I ’ m proud to be part of you .
