roads now hospitals in a LDC.

Post Courier 9May. "Sir Peter (Health Minister), while on the tour of ANGAU Hospital in Lae, expressed concern over the run down state of wards, medical equipment and other facilities. He was dismayed that a large batch of medicines for children was being dumped because they were “off”. Sir Peter said he was also disturbed that patients had to sleep on the floor due to shortage of beds. Officer-in-charge at the hospital pharmacy Jane Kane told Sir Peter and his team the hospital was getting drugs and other supplies from chemists as well as other hospitals in the region. Sir Peter was also shown the hospital’s broken down air conditioning system, which has affected the operations of the operating theatre for a long time. The X-ray department also faced major problems with one of two machines broken down. The department did not also have a radiologist. The only ultra-sound scanner was also out of service. He did not make any commitment on the course of action he would take.” After the previous blog on the roads which followed the blog about the LDC, the way this country is being managed is a bloody joke. I don't know what is worse - a country like Australia being run by an image conscious liar or this one by comedians.
