Dr. Kadil “Jojo” M. Sinolinding, Jr. wins 4th Gawad Haydee Yorac

Dr. Kadil “Jojo” M. Sinolinding, Jr., a rural physician and volunteer ophthalmologist, of Cotabato won in the recently concluded 4th Gawad Haydee Yorac.

His citation is as follows:
For devoting his life to the remote and displaced depressed communities of indigenous people, Muslims and Christians in the Autonomous Region of Muslim Mindanao and other far-flung areas of Mindanao suffering from the protracted peace and order situation, from his years as a medical student leader to his subsequent practice of his medical profession specializing in opthalmology, choosing to serve as a rural doctor, living in communities at risk of his life and choosing to forgo a more lucrative practice. For his courage to serve, his vision for affordable cataract treatment through outreaches and other medical services to the poorest of the poor, his tireless consensus building and bringing health, hope and peace to a troubled land, thus, emulating the selfless public service espoused by the late Haydee Yorac.
