Regional travellers are giving S'pore a miss because we are simply too expensive for them. The cost of living has skyrocketed due to overcrowding with the Govt freely inviting foreigners in to work and make their homes here. This is another problem of our leaders' own making, and now they lament that tourism and the influx of foreign medical tourists has shrank drastically.

TBH, TW and Thailand offer more bang for buck for medical tourism

The privileged minority enjoy the Swiss Standard of Living, but the majority experience only the Swiss Cost of Living here.

S'pore has to thank Mount Elizabeth and Gleneagles Hospitals for fleecing medical tourists; these 2 private hospitals effectively priced S'pore out of the region.

Well, our cancer survivor rate does not justify the extra cost vs TW 长庚医院

More cancer patients in Singapore die, compared with US, South Korea: Paper​

More than double the number of cancer patients in Singapore die of the disease compared with those in Australia and the United States. In Asia, Singapore also fares worse than South Korea and Japan in terms of cancer survival rate.

Doctors say factors such as age at diagnosis, screening take-up rates and access to care are among possible reasons for the lower survival rate here.

A paper published by the Asia-Pacific Medical Technology Association (ApacMed) in June showed that 51 out of 100 cancer patients in Singapore die, compared with 24 in Australia, 25 in the US, 38 in South Korea and 41 in Japan.

The paper suggests that countries with higher cancer mortality rates are the ones with lower use of next-generation sequencing (NGS), a test that identifies biomarkers in cancers that can be targeted with specific treatments, resulting in better outcomes.

ApacMed, which represents manufacturers and suppliers of medical equipment, devices and in-vitro diagnostics, clearly has an interest in pushing for NGS.

The paper admits that “there is an absence of current studies establishing a causal relation between mortality-to-incidence ratio and variations in NGS access”.

Chang Gung Memorial Hospital Unveils Cellular Therapy: A Beacon of Hope for Cancer Treatment​

Cellular Therapy Emerges as a Front-Runner in Medical Innovation

TAOYUAN, Oct. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Cellular therapy, a revolutionary approach where cells are manipulated outside the body and then reintroduced to treat or prevent diseases, has been recognized in recent years as a highly promising treatment in the medical field. Chang Gung Memorial Hospital in Taiwanhas been at the forefront of this innovation since 2018, when it established a Good Tissue Practice (GTP) laboratory with six cell processing labs adhering to international PICS/GMP cleanliness standards. The hospital actively supports clinical trials for various immune cells and regenerative medicine, with its Department of Laboratory Medicine certified by the College of American Pathologists (CAP) and responsible for issuing quality control reports for cell production processes.


Autologous Dendritic Cell-Cytokine Induced Killer Cell Immunotherapy (DC-CIK)

Dr. Wei-Chen Lee, Vice-Superintendent at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, Linkou, a leading institution in liver transplantation in Taiwan, has been researching autologous dendritic cells (DC) for liver cancer treatment since 1998. His therapy has achieved remarkable results, with no tumor growth post-treatment and a disease control rate of 70-80%. His team is now advancing research on cancer vaccines, aiming to initiate treatment immediately post-surgery to prevent cancer recurrence.

Professor John Yu from the Institute of Stem Cell and Translational Cancer Research (ISCTCR) has developed a novel three-stage “apexNK” expansion technology for natural killer (NK) cells. Combined with a high-efficiency viral transduction method, this technology produces new CAR-NK cells, overcoming the limitations of traditional CAR therapies in treating solid tumors. Director Shuen-Iu Hung from the Cancer Vaccine and Immune Cell Therapy Core Laboratory has completed Phase I clinical trials targeting tumor neoantigens for solid cancer treatment, paving the way for future applications in metastatic and multidrug-resistant tumors.

They are already here in large numbers with or without visa-free privilege.

I see a swarm of ah nehs and Tiongs at Sentosa on the weekends. Usually they're with their tour guide holding that silly little flag, posing for photos in front of the spinning Universal Studios globe.

For some public hospitals, those medical tourists would be flown back in a coffin. Need to pay a premium for healthcare to stay alive.

That's why they need to turn oxley into another sideshow. Who would go there but cecroaches?

The tourism sector needs to attract more tourists from Southeast Asia and India to restore visitor arrival growth and help Changi fill future terminals


Donch need to pay $m for a consultant to tell you this.

For free I tell gahmen this…donch build so many terminals and then force to fill them up.
