In a goodwill gesture, India has gifted an AIIMS-level hospital to Bhutan with a promise to develop two more healthcare institutes that will be linked to referral hospitals in Thimphu and Mongar respectively.
Wow... India's really shining isn't it? They are being generous. Let's see what they have to offer:
They said the national referral centre at Thimphu, is being developed on the lines of the All India Institute of Medical Sciences and comprises a 350-bed hospital, filter clinic, lab, doctors and nurses quarter and internal road.
Well, that's pretty good list, but not complete. They didn't talk about stupid management and government interference in the operations of AIIMS which, ideally, shouldn't affect the operations of AIIMS, but when you have the head of AIIMS and the Health Minister clashing in India, what else to expect.
Also, they didn't mention about the doctors, interns and students who in the last couple of weeks have achieved enlightenment stage by going on strike at AIIMS (informally also known as: All India Institute of Medical Strikes). Well, it is definitely the RDB effect, and the fact is, if that's what they need to do, then do it! We need something like this... Let the government realize that they just can't take decisions and misuse their power.
Well, what else are they missing... bad infrastructure etc, uncaring doctors (don't look at fake rankings)
There's probably no need to mention all this, as it is already expected. Good luck Bhutanis!
