Well thats one less but shouldn't they be concentrating on the 40000 faked western doctors who could easily kill people by incorrect diagnosis ?

This is a problem that we have not addressed well. In India there is excess of doctors. Some of the them have selected Sri Lanka as a safe place for their practice. Almost all our doctors do have world recognized qualifications like MBBS MD MRCP MS MRCS FRCP FRCS MRCOG FRCOG . But some their qualifications are never heard of in medical literature. So when you see your doctor see whether their qualifications are real or fake.
