Last Friday The Oath episode still on my mind. Doctor refuse to do transplant operation just because patient friend donate kidney but patient pay angpow. Patient about to die. Patient friend about to bankrupt. If doctor transplant for them patient will live. Her angpow will help her friend not bankrupt. Doctor leave them both to die and bankrupt. He say thats law and moral. What kind of law and moral is that?

That no need to mention. Where got such thing as free transplant operation hospital dont bill you? At least 6 figure$ I think. Now thats law thats moral. But donor receiving angpow from patient who say thank you not law not moral. Thats law and moral that have doctors like NEH and VB proudly announcing that they earn more millions than ministers before they become ministers. What a sacrifice what a bargain LOL

  • No to OPT OUT SCHEME must voluntary OPT IN
  • No to Organ Sale must NO MONEY
  • No to PROFITEERING

Profiteering is middleman. Richman needs kidney, ask middleman to look. Middleman persuade poorman to donate. Middleman take commission. But if I know you you know me. You need kidney I donate. You give me angpow say thank you. Whats wrong? Will purposely go sign out of HOTA next week since law is like that. I die also wont give to stranger for free. If relative need it then I donate. Pte business. Even if no direct angpow, I'm sure if relative is rich will auto treat me nicer even more than direct angpow. Illegal? If relative is poor, no angpow cant treat me nice also nevermind. I happily do it. But not for doctors and hospitals to make hundreds of thousands operation fees out of free kidneys and pretend to be very moral. Tell me transplant to save patient live is free no operation fee, I double chop and sign agree with HOTA. Doctors oath shouldnt be called Socrates oath. Its Hipprocrates oath. Pui!

Profiteering HOTA becomes a big business and SGP wants that badly.:mad::oIo:

I have no problem if people want to give kidney to save own family members lives.

Plunder and sales and crooks & loanshark treats etc will come in instantly when this is commercialised.

One day the fucking PAP IR Casino will let you pledge your kidney to play roulette or poker, you lose the bet they cut your kidney out sell to rich families which need it.
:eek::*::mad::oIo:

I am serious!

Let me tell you how immoral doctors and hospitals and government can be. Pay for your kidney cannot. Pay for your operation must. Limited money trap both ways. If no money pay dare not sign operation form, next! Anyhow sign also no use without personal wealth or rich guarantor. Of course the queue go up to rich people who can sign the sign form money no worry. They all Class A bills. Doctors and hospitals can charge more. Government dont need subsidise. See?

People who strongly believes in equality would argue that a rich man's life is not worth more than a poor man's life. So money for organs is wrong. Accept that fate dealt the rich man a set of bad cards (poor health) as fate dealt the poor man a set of bad cards (financially poor).

The rich man made good and lived a good life. Why sully his own good name being afraid to die?

Equality/Morality freaks never die before, that is why they can be cavalier about things.

Doctor is afraid of one thing - the law of the country. The rest is bull shit. If I am not receiving special inducement, I will do the honorable thing - perform the transplant.

That is understood. The trouble is politicians and doctors now are making it even worse for poor people in the name of morality.

The doctor do the transplant risk another group of buaya coming after their money. Lawyers LOL

"And here's a song to sing, for every man inside,
if he can hear you sing
it's an open door.
There's not a rich man there,
who couldn't pay his way
and buy the freedom that's a high price
for the poor."

Graham Nash " Prison Song" ( abridged)

Money, power, connection, you can buy anything...you believe in equality?, it is a dream, an imagination.

Go blame the rich and the policy maker.. dun blame the doctors. :oIo:
Even ask Mother Theresa do the operation also she wun... Want to grease her..beter grease her enuff to slip to mars where she can't be extradited..

You wana know why? After the transplant.. if the patient fart more then twice the next day.. COMPRAIN operation fiaked up and sue. 10 years later if donor sneeze twice.. Comprain operation fiaked up.. sue more.

doctors are stupid.. but the first day they step out of class.. they are given practical lesson on "DUN ACT SMART". :oIo::oIo::oIo:

I would say I am undecided.

But the morality argument can lead to absurd outcomes. I believe HOTA is bad only because it allows medical tourists to 'harvest our organs' without any con$ideration given for the donor. Why should people who don't sign the HOTA be entitled to our citizens' organs? If patients who need organs should pay for it, how much? To whom? THE STATE?? THE PRIVATE HOSPITALS??

It's a bloody mess, and clearly I did not follow or understand the arguments when they were debated in parliament. The (perceived) lack of communication about the plan is discomforting. All they tell you is you can opt out, but you have lower priority to organs than the medical tourist if you need it.

Notice my objections have nothing to do with equality or morality. Though I acknowledge your sentiments as valid, and would feel better if there were no HOTA.

I think he got into jail or something and then they changed the law and he got his organ eventually.
