NST : The Sunday Column: Beg, borrow or steal, life’s too precious Part 2

My email to Kalimullah Hassan of NST


Dear Sir,
As with every Sunday, I look forward to reading you article, and this week was rewarding and frustrating but I have to admit this is reality.
Sir, This is the reality average human being like us have to face, being exploited from every angle and no proper forum to address and miles of red tape. In reality these are facts we all have to face time after time, day after day. Firstly I happy your brother survived, but if all the steps taken by you and your wife had not materialized what then?
Prove me wrong by saying the Insurance companies that provide medical insurance are actually providing them, we are exploited. Life is not a gamble insurance companies can play with and we ordinary Malaysians we are powerless to stop them, after all who are we to stop them.
Medical centers sprouting here and there make double and triple profits at the ordinary Malaysian expense. Your experience came to light because you have the avenue to express them through your pen. How about the rest?
There MUST be regulation to put life about money, to compel, bond, or regulate all such medical centers private especially, that they must stabilize the patient then talk about money not act only on payment. What is the ringgit value placed to decide a human's life? A Malaysian Life
Such a scenario of life versus money the movie John Q come to mind. That's a movie... this is reality you will get happy endings and sad endings. Do you really think we can change it?
