I think it's not entirely fair to put the blame wholly on the patients and punish them. Some of them have violent tendencies and hence need treatment and care from the caretakers. It's quite a sticky situation here, the healthcare workers need to be protected, but without interfering them from rendering care to the patients. As stated in the article, I think it's a good to have the nursing staff from other hospitals to follow suit and learn unarmed combat to protect themselves.
The IS Magazine ran an article asking for better welfare for foreigners, the very people who helped lay the foundation of our dream houses and the very ones who helped paved the roads where our dream cars ride on.
From China to Phillipines, from Malaysia to Indonesia, from the East to the West, it seems like foreigners are on the limelight--yest again.
I guess it is a love-hate relationship which locals are adopting towards these foreigners and hence it explains why the abuse, etc.
in ipoh if we're not happy wid the doctors, we give them foul words and scold the doctor's wholee family.
easy rite?
