AMBI, Jambi: The Jambi city branch of the Indonesian Red Cross (PMI) always runs out of blood supplies as there is only small number of donors in the city.
This condition forces patients who need blood to find their own donors.
"Jambi needs about 700 blood bags every month," Jambi PMI chairman, Hatman Manap, said Friday.
"So far Jambi PMI can only provide about 40 percent of the total needs."
He encouraged institutions in the city to be more concerned about the issue by organizing blood donor campaigns as often as possible.
Thus far PMI always provides blood for the Raden Mattaher General Hospital. --JP
