For some products and services in Myanmar, it mentioned that the particular products and service industries are ISO certified, but it never mentioned that the ISO certified is from which country and the registration number of the ISO certification. May be, it is a kind of fraud. All sort of frauds are quite common in Myanmar. May be, the ISO certified products or service industry in Myanmar are fake or the ISO certified certificate is issued by some countries which are especially friendly with the dictatorship government of Myanmar.
Some laboratories for example, it mentioned beside the name of the lab that it is of International Standard and some labs’ name even is written as “World Standard”. It is very misery for the patients or the people to understand clearly whether the words “International Standard or World Standard” refer to the name of the lab or it refers to the quality of the lab. If it refers to the quality of the lab, it is recommended or approved by which government?
That kind of words is 100% fraud to the patients or people in Myanmar because people or the patients get very high inspiration to enter it because they know no better. That kind of labs, products, service industry, etc are neither recognized by ISO Swiss certified group, INGO, etc nor even comparable to the ASEAN countries’ standard. It is no wonder that some businessmen in Myanmar dare to do such frauds under Than Shwe administration. May be some of the Military dictatorship Than Shwe government officials also are entitle to achieve World recognized honorable doctorate degree specializing in fraudulent.
Many laboratories in Myanmar are not actually doing the laboratory exams, but just wrote down the result off hands. Do you know how serious it is? Surgeons and Physicians have to treat the patients depending on the pathologist’s report. Life is very cheap in Myanmar.
One cancer patient in Myanmar for example, was sent to a famous special clinic in Yangon (Rangoon) and underwent operation by a famous surgeon. After the operation, instead of giving Chemo therapy and Radiation therapy, the surgeon gave a particular medication and said to the patient that it is the latest treatment. The doctor also quoted as saying to the patient that there is no need to give chemo therapy and radiation therapy. The patient needs to take the medication given by the doctor and that is enough or it can cure the serious decease like cancer. What is the outcome? The patient has to suffer a lot and his/her life is much shorter or he/she is dying with terrible pains.
Do you think the doctor take any responsible? Nothing! No medical ethic at all. What kind of country it is? What a ridicule it is? Even animal life in any developed country is much higher or more valuable compared to the life of people in Myanmar. Almost all hospitals and clinics in Myanmar do not have any treatment efficiency.
Many people who live in the villages of Myanmar cannot afford to pay for the medication and hospital fee. Although there are many bridges and roads, etc, transportation throughout the Myanmar is not at all dependable especially in many villages.
Many village people has insufficient budget so that they do not even have a chance to know about their health condition (no proper routine medical check-ups. Example: Blood Sugar, High Blood Pressure, etc) or never been to any clinic (including dental clinic) or any hospital throughout their life.
In Thailand for example, poor people can get a free of charge for medication as well as for medical treatments. Thai government even provide health care to the alien workers. Foreign worker needs to pay only Bht. 30 to get all necessary medication and the medical treatments in the government hospital.
Many doctors or medical staff in Myanmar still using the outdated glass-syringes, but never boil it properly or not hygiene so that it is very dangerous. Due to insufficient quantity of disposal syringes, HIV virus and other infected virus can easily spread out. There is no health insurance in Myanmar. There is no credit card or ATM (Automatic Teller Machine) outlet throughout in Myanmar so that each and every patient has to bring a pile of Myanmar currency to the hospitals for their medical check-ups or undergo surgery. If they don’t have a pile of money, they have no other choice, but to die.
The old ready-made garments business is available in Yangon and it is quite popular in the provinces of Myanmar. Old clothes are not safe or hygiene enough. It may bring some kind of infected disease like V.D. (Venereal Diseases; Example: Syphyllis, Gonorvhoea, etc). Many people may not have knowledge about infected diseases like B Hepatisis, C Hepatisis, etc and virus like TB, HIV, etc because of the poor education system in Myanmar or due to lack of schooling. Many people who are living in the villages of Myanmar or the people who are even living in the cities may not have good medical knowledge so that they are not afraid of anything.
Prostitution system in Myanmar is very poor and dangerous. Although it is said to be illegal in Myanmar, people can get prostitutes mostly in the “Beauty Saloons” which run by the wives of the high military officials. The glass doors of all the beauty salons are fully covered with black stickers so that outsiders cannot look into the salons. Many beauty salons are available in all over Yangon, but the owners do not provide any regular medical check-ups to their sex workers. The sex workers do not have a proper health-care.
Government is helpless so that all hospitals in Yangon have to depend on their own generator for electricity. Do you know how important of the electricity in the hospitals’ operation theater and almost all medical equipments?
