Abstract

The article informs about generosity of a Malaysia physician called Uncle Boda by the local people in Kuantan, Malaysia. Topics include He was syncretic and un-doctrinaire, his religious faith an amalgam of beliefs that accommodated Judeo-Christian notions with a heavy dash of Hindu inspiration; his medical practice countering the tradition of skull worshipping witchdoctors known as bomohs; and he died of dementia with absence of mourners.
