Healthcare services in hospitals countrywide came to standstill today because of the 24-hour strike launched by the Government Medical Officers' Association (GMOA) against the South Asian Institute of Technology and Medicine (SAITM) in Malabe.
GMOA Secretary Naveen de Zoysa told a media briefing that all state medical officers including ayurvedic doctors, dental and veterinary surgeons stopped work from 8.00 a.m. today to 8.00 a.m. tomorrow.
“Doctors would not engage in private practice till next morning. Members of other trade unions held demonstrations and protest marches in several parts of the country,” he said and added that if the government continues to remain silent even after this strike, the GMOA would in future, harness all trade unions, and launch a massive strike which would affect all service sectors in the country.

The doctors of this country who used free education at the expenses to become doctors are now trying to take patients and citizens of this country in to ransom to win their unfair demand. Ask every citizen every organization and every neighborhood in this country to sideline doctors from the society.

Heartless doctors, where is the oath they took to save lives? They are responsible for all the deaths in the country during their arrogant strike.

Are the doctors mentally ill to continue the strike.May be to encourage the Private Hospital for more business.

Hurrah! how wonderful. 100% success on account of the poor masses held ransom. You people will rot in hell and even rot before your death.
