Prof Hemantha Wickra Friday, 17 August 2012 09:11 AM

Criminals have to be taught a lesson and this is the language they understand, their own language. Decent methods have failed in Sri Lanka

Strike should be continued so that they can do private practice few days more days.

Doctors in SriLanka are good at only one thing - earning lots of money doing private practice, Muadalalis. They cannot talk or act in a professional manner to resolve by negotiation. Do we have any evidence this Dr LAR, senior surgeon had a grenade thrown for some matter in his private life or business (PP) matter. He may have over charged or inappropriately charged a poor patient.

Wake up GMOA and medical students - start thinking and being rational. Dont act like idiots. Learn from your past mistakes

This country has reached such low level that even Medical Doctors who belong to such exalted profession should resolve to strike action.

Its all very nice telling all of them should think of the poor people and the poor country. But what does the government do to care about the poor people by taking necessary stringent action against wrong-doers, rapists, looters, drug dealers etc. who are part of the govenment.

What other protests can the doctors make other than strike? this is a lawless state, where politicians twist the rules to their advantage? Its not only doctors, engineers and university staff who need to uplift the country and think of the so called poor people and poor country. The leaders and policitians and everyone else also need to contribute.

So, 1 doctor faced a criminal act and the whole bunch decides to torture the people who desperately need them? Those poor, helpless who cannot afford private hospitals? If a single patients develops serious complications or worse death due to this strike.

What do they plan to achieve by going on strike? Yes throwing a grenade at someone's house is criminal but everyone going on strike won't undo it. Seek justice instead.
