Massive circumcision in Karawaci

TANGERANG: Lippo Karawaci Blood Donors Club held a mass circumcision ceremony for 75 needy kids living in several villages around the upmarket Lippo Karawaci housing complex on Wednesday.

The circumcisions were conducted by a team of doctors led by Dr. Prayoga at the housing complex's security guard barracks.

The participating kids also received a package of Muslim clothes and some money.

This is the second such event to be organized by the blood donors club, according to Lippo Karawaci's spokesman Faisal.

A similar event took place last August when 150 kids living in the vicinity of the complex were circumcised.--JP
