Australian John Fawcett came to Bali 30 years ago at the age of 49, diagnosed as critically ill and waited for what he thought was a fast-approaching end.
Three decades on, John Fawcett is still on Bali, very much alive and making a genuine difference in the lives of the people who live on the island that is his adopted home.
The John Fawcett Foundation, established by John, has decades of life-changing work to its credit. The foundation has performed more than 33,0000 sight-giving cataract operations in Bali, Kupang, East Java, Sumatra and Kalimantan.
The good news for Bali is that at 80 years of age John shows little sign of slowing down.
Agnes Winarti of
Bali Daily interviewed this much-loved and highly admired man.
The resulting interview is a good read, which we highly recommend:
