Rest In Peace. You will always be in our memories. Don’t worry, for God will look after us.

What’s the use of an ambulance? What’s the use of hospital in a small district with so many kampungs in there?

I really don’t understand. Aren’t you supposed to be providing services to all these people staying there no matter they live in the town or in the small villages? Is it so hard to send an ambulance into the village when they need one? Summore, the village’s road is properly tarred, no one ask you to venture in those muddy or rocky road. Dare to said that you don’t provide ambulance service to them? You are not a private hospital! You’re a government hospital. It’s your job to take care and provide medical services for those living in your area! Who else they can rely but you?

Fine! I know that the ambulance is huge! There are small ambulance that is available also. Even vans and 4-wheel drives that are provided to your hospital for you to do your work will do. Why can’t you utilised it? Those people rely on you to help them to send those sick villagers in the village to the hospital.

I noticed that many villagers delayed seeking medical treatments when they are very sick because you don’t provide ambulance service into their village. They have difficulty in sending the sick to the hospital because they don’t have enough knowledge on how to handle the sick and they are afraid that improper handling might cause more problem to the sick. All these don’t matter at all! The fact is that, isn’t that supposed to be the work of ambulance sending people to the hospital?!?!? Summore, the ambulance has facilities and the space for the sick, at least early treatments can be given first by the medical personnels.

At the end, they just have to let the sick suffer at home and eventually died! All because of no ambulance service provided to them!

Back to my point again, what is your role there? It’s unbelievable that there is no ambulance service made available to those in rural area! DAMN IT! Now I know! All these while I thought ambulance should come when you need it, it doesn’t matter it’s from the government hospital or private hospital. This is how it should work right? Government ambulance only charges RM10 per trip unlike the private one charges RM600 per trip then fee is charge to the bill when they are discharged, no money should be collected on the spot. I don’t think it’s all because of the money, I don’t know what. Policy? What kind of rubbish/stupid/useless policy is that?

UNBELIVEABLE! THERE IS NO AMBULANCE SERVICE PROVIDED TO THOSE LIVING IN RURAL AREA!

Update:

I was awakened by siren of a fire engine this morning, it’s rush hour around 8am, the fire engine was having difficulty trying to squeeze its way out.

Then, about 5 minutes later, my dad came back told us that my ex-classmate from secondary school staying at the next few shops away from us jumped from the third floor and miraculously still alive with leg injuries that were quite bad. Blood was everywhere because she tried to drag herself away from those that wanted to help her. She had nervous breakdown, she kept laughing and talking non sense. I had not seen her for quite sometimes even at her working place, she might be sick for quite sometimes already and today she did something unexpected. Heard that her husband has scratches on his face. I’m wondering what had caused her to have nervous breakdown. *Scary* Initially after she landed on the ground, her husband carried her into the car but who knows just few second after turning his back, she managed to get out of the car.

Her husband panicked until he forgot all about calling an ambulance with his mobile phone and asking those around where to get an ambulance. There is no way her husband can handle her alone, she’s hysterical and he’s panicking. Good thing that those “kuli keng”(labourers) working there helped immobilised her to avoid her hurting herself again while waiting for the ambulance. I think there should be people calling the ambulance on her husband behalf, who will just stand there and see and do nothing right? There are still people that care.

I didn’t see anything, that’s what my dad told us. I tried to peep from my room window but it’s too far to be seen.

It took quite a while for the ambulance to come since it’s rush hour. These two incidents this morning had given me the inspirations to write this post.

Imagine this…

You are driving halfway, suddenly you hear sirens from behind, then the traffic police will block the road to make way for the VVIP’s cars to pass tru’. If you are lucky to be at the same direction of the the VVIP, then you get the right of the way first if you’re at the traffic light. All vehicles from other sides will not be allowed to move even if the light is green.

OK… Back to my main point here. I’m sure many of us came across fire engine, ambulance or police during rush hour. It’s not easy for them to get tru’ right? They are so huge and jams have long queues of cars, even with the siren, it’s not enough. Those in front won’t know what happen at the back so it’s impossible for them to make way for them, when the front don’t make way, how are those behind going to make way? Imagine if it’s the VVIP on the way, they would definitely be given the right of the way no matter what by having the traffic police with their white huge motorbikes blocking traffics from everywhere to make way.

So… What do you think? Should the ambulance, fire engine or the police be escorted by the traffic police also and make way for them? This way they can get to the emergency scene faster than trying so hard to squeeze in between the queues. The VVIPs can get this kind of treatment, why can’t those ambulance, fire engine or police have it too? They need to save lives for heaven’s sake! Which is more important?

Think about it!
