A simple blood test can save our next generation, but instead I receive calls by married couples whose lives have been devastated by news of their child having thalassemia.

For over four years, Fight Against Thalassemia (FAiTh) has been trying to convey a simple message across to the government: to pass and implement a Pre-Marital Mandatory Tests Bill in the country. This is a simple request for a simple bill and a simple solution to highly complex problems that our society faces today.
