Owner of the local drugs in public hospitals

KHALILUR RAHMAN

Last week a private television channel an episode such as organized groups of employees at the orthopaedic hospital, popularly known as Pangu hospital life, local owners, medicines, gauge, bandages, syringes, etc., by that State health institution in the city. All of these drugs and many other items are sold adjacent hospital at half their prices on private clinics, to the orthopaedic.

The television crew entered the storeroom one such private clinic, where a large stock of medicines, diverted by the orthopaedic hospital, was found. Labels on bottles and boxes of drugs clearly showed that properties were the Government. The late-night TV watchers were surprised to see that the shop keeper Show names of employees of the hospital clinic of a registry with entries orthopedic with their cell phone numbers was maintaining, the drugs and other clinical materials regularly delivered. The amount of materials entered in the register.

One of the shop keepers admitted the TV reporter the clinic received regular supply of medicines and other materials from the orthopaedic hospital staff. A boy by the orthopaedic ward hospital, whose name has been found along with his cell phone number in the private clinic register, was chased by the TV journalists. The staff introduced himself as young ward of the orthopaedic hospital.

Appeared on the question of how his name with phone number in the clinic register, he replied that a hospital staff he visited often many private clinics and as such his name in the register could be observed. But the boy was found asked mother after several medicines against his name in the register. A further employee of the private clinic found store you swear on TV journalist, he would indulge in such a practice in the future. The Director of the hospital was the question, orthopaedic about theft of drugs from the hospital to the TV reporter with the assurance that he would try to stop the abuse. The Director (DG) health services, which also questioned said the reporter, theft of drugs in other hospitals, Government's going on. The DG informed that the reporters worry that 96% of patients drugs needed hospitals provided by the Government.

The assertion by the DG Health over the supply of medicines in State hospitals may be true, but it doesn't help the large number of patients, the participation of Government health facilities daily as unscrupulous hospital staff continue most of away on sale at.

Our Health Minister is Professor AFM Ruhal Haque never found in people says that nationwide, there was no shortage of medicines in State hospitals. He even repeatedly announced in the past who had to buy the patients in government hospitals not more drugs at their own expense. Civilian surgeons had, the Minister once quoted medicines at State hospital as we reported earlier in this article, when whatever he wanted, what they reported to send, which gave it enough supply of drugs available. The Minister claimed that adequate supply of medicines in the hospitals of pragmatic measures, which have been of the Government in the health sector of the country.

The Health Minister said, that change the color of the labels of medicines that the hospital was to ensure free distribution to patients. Once the public central medical store (CMS) which maintains the supply of medicines to public hospitals had to back essential drugs from 20 districts in December 2010. The civil surgeon of the 20 districts returned the meds for CMS, because those are not in hospitals were required. Later, the Ministry of health and the Director-General of health had two separate committees to the probe into the causes of the rejection of the civil surgeon the medicines via CMS made. The civil surgeon informed had contacted Ministry of health and Health Directorate that they send the CMS not to essential drugs, but in vain.

On the other hand, a large number of patients will often suffer in some other important public hospitals. Unscrupulous hospital staff recognize a part of money from helpless patients either for the provisioning of a trolley or allocation of a seat. In some hospitals as is claimed to go 'Dalals"(brokers or intermediaries) allure patients clinics on the assurance of a better treatment. A part of the doctors and hospital staff, which are associated with this specific clinics try, the patients for their own interests, make additional money to convince.

Furthermore, medicines for provided their way into the outer stores to sell public hospitals. Such practices are not new. These are continued in the years continue. The powerful general staff with politically connected groups are mainly responsible for this evil practice. How long it continues depends on the authorities concerned.

The 68th UNGA, currently in session, is Iran's nuclear program, etc. because no exception and the discussions of this time are heavily dominated by such critical issues as the Syria crisis. In addition, a variety of other issues, from militarisation or development of weapons to who are inextricably linked with socio economic uplift - also come for discussion in regard to the injection to make happier effective and healthy fresh ideas and thoughts to the world.

Noble thoughts and fantasies are galore-, if the fact that the global scenario is dominated by mistrust, bitterness and a sense of frustration in advance among many present delegations due to their own version or interpretation.

Nevertheless, UN General Assembly serves as inspiration for the maintenance of world peace and tranquility. Skeptics say the routine of UNGA hardly a meaningful gathering. However, it is assumed that this meeting provides the opportunity for member countries to bring it, despite their differences exchange views on many topics.

Head of Government: Sheikh Hasina leads a large delegation from Bangladesh to the this year's UNGA, where in addition to addressing the session, she has held talks with several important figures on the edge of the event.

As a Convention, the Chief Executive of host of the United Nations - United States - President launches the effective procedure the UNGA. This time also urged President Barack Obama in his speech before the UN General Assembly session, the world for unremitting efforts for peace and stability. He mentioned the many questions the Syrian civil war, in which his country has taken an anti-regime stance by supporting rebels.

Was the US President address this time particularly important for the incumbent, as Mr. Obama in the first year of his second and final four-year term as President of the United States is the most powerful country in the world. For this reason, Washington exerts considerable influence on global affairs. Apparently President Obama address presented now and in the near future the foreign policy of the United States.

The 2013 session has seen some new leaders in the United Nations as Hassan Rohani, the new President of Iran, whose moderate farming on the "West" has raised hopes for a reduction of tensions with the United States and its allies on various important issues of Tehran's nuclear program.

Last year was the presence of the former Egyptian President Mohammad Moorsi, the first elected leader of the most populous Arab nation, a remarkable event for the UN General Assembly. But he has the army been discontinued a few months ago. In 2012 the focus is also on the then Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmedinejad was growing confrontation due to his nation, particularly with the West on Tehran's nuclear program. The Achilles tendon attention of Iran in the Middle East - Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu - was also present. He is there this time also make this year the scenario in the UN General Assembly.

President of the Palestinian Authority of Mahmud Abbas is also very much in focus in his talks with President Obama over peace in the Middle East volatile.

Indeed, such informal meetings carry sometimes essential to on improving relations between the countries, the strains in their ties due to many factors. The Prime Minister of Bangladesh has several such meetings with some important figures during their stay in New York.

Although, the UN General Assembly session is largely an exercise routine. But it is also important for the simple reason that it is a landmark annual event which helps Member States closer, despite the fact that the world of differences between broken and at odds with the Member countries on many issues of importance. These countries have different perceptions about the whole scene.

United Nations resolution ordered chemical weapons destroyed Syria

AppId is over the quota

UNITED NATIONS, Sept 28 (AFP): The UN Security Council unanimously passed a landmark resolution Friday ordering the destruction of Syria's chemical weapons and condemning a murderous poison gas attack in Damascus.

The major powers overcame a prolonged deadlock to approve the first council resolution on the conflict, which is now 30 months old with more than 100,000 dead.

UN leader Ban Ki-moon, who called the resolution "the first hopeful news on Syria in a long time," said he hopes to convene a peace conference in mid-November.

Resolution 2118, the result of bruising negotiations between the United States and Russia, gives international binding force to a plan drawn up by the two to eliminate President Bashar al-Assad's chemical arms.

The plan calls for Syria's estimated 1,000 tonnes of chemical weapons to be put under international control by mid-2014.

International experts are expected to start work in Syria to meet the tight deadline next week. Britain and China offered to finance disarmament to the operation.

"Should the regime fail to act, there will be consequences," US Secretary of State John Kerry warned the 15-member council after the vote, sealing a US-Russian agreement.

But Kerry hailed the resolution.

"The Security Council has shown that when we put aside politics for the common good, we are still capable of doing big things," he said.

Human Rights Watch however what not impressed with the deal.

"This resolution fails to ensure justice for the gassing of hundreds of children and many other grave crimes," said the watchdog's UN director, Philippe Bolopion.

Efforts to destroy Syria's chemical weapons "do not address the reality that conventional weapons have killed the overwhelming majority of the estimated 100,000 people who have died in the conflict," Bolopion said.
