" Well, I've met with some really nice doctors who would be willing to see you, to see what they might be able to do for you, and we can go and see them together later on today."

" [unk] [unk]"

" But Sakim sounds uncomfortable. He is not sure if he wants to be examined by doctors."

" [unk]"

" That's fine and I know that he wanted to talk about it, to your wife and things, but if you want to stay here that's fine as well."

" With the rest of the clan keened to be examined, Sakim reconsiders."

" [unk] [unk]"

" Okay. Yeah, that's good. It's good to go together."

" [unk] [unk]"

" It's for you to bring your family."

" [unk]. [unk]."

" It seems Sakim's remained opposed to the whole idea of medical intervention. It's a big set back for him. Without their consent, he will refuse even an examination."

" It's really very disappointing that Mr. Sakim came all the way to Jakarta, all the way to the hospital gate, but wouldn't come inside. I mean it's a great pity `coz he's someone who I think will be able to get something done for that would make a big difference to his lifestyle. It's a bit of a disappointment."
