Horrible incident

Long and whining post ahead. If you have the time, please read it.

The short version is this: Colleague got robbed. Head got slashed. Report to police. Doctor don't want to treat because got medical report to fill. Police not helping in anyway. System is fuck up.



This is something horrible that happened a week ago. One of my colleague got robbed. That's not the worst part. He got slashed as well. Worst still, THAT is not the worst part. First, let me start with his story. He was walking to his car and got his head into the car when two idiots approached him.

The first guy tapped his shoulder. When my colleague looked back, his head got hit by the guy's machete (parang). He was bleeding but not profusely. The next guy kept on poking his stomach with a GUN. What you expect to happen? They took his stuff and ran off in a black car (not local car). My colleague went to office without realising that his head was bleeding. Talk about shock.

When I arrived at office and heard the whole story, I was of course shocked as well. I followed him to the police station to help him translate from English to BM. The police was nice at first asking him the usual. Where it happen and how it happen. Do he recognise the people and car plate.

The horrific part starts now. After that, we need to fill up the medical part of the form. So we went to the clinic. Apparently private clinics refuse to treat him citing the reason that only government clinic or General Hospital can fill in the report. So we thought fine.

We returned to the police hoping that they could help us. But no! They said that all this is out of their jurisdiction. So what if it is out of their jurisdiction? Haven't they heard of the term GOOD SAMARITAN? Just take him to the nearest government clinic or hospital. Simple as that! And they call themselves police. Guess what, they did nothing so I got fed up and left the place to head to the nearest government clinic.

Later, I drove my colleague over to a government clinic near Jalan Usahawan. Pusat Keluarga something. That freaking clinic, mind you, a GOVERNMENT CLINIC, refused to treat him as well. I was about to shout at them for not wanting to treat an injured 50 YEAR OLD MAN. All this just because there was a police report to fill. What? So scared of police? Don't know how to write is it? You talk and I write. Simple.

So with that, we left that stupid place and headed for the GH, Hospital KL. I know that we can drop people off at the emergency section but that place SEALED it off! Seriously. How am I to drop him there?

I have to continue driving inside the GH area following a freaking long jam. IN THE HOSPITAL. There was no parking, no one to help us and no one to guide us. What happened next is that the line that the worker's there formed lead us all the way OUT from the hospital. Way to go. Great job.

My colleague, had enough of it, said that he won't file the medical report and just proceeded with the normal police report. Returning to the police station, we have to continue to file the report with out any medical report in it. After typing it out, we left the police station. He had to go back to office to WIPE the dried blood off his head. Can you IMAGINE if he was seriously injured. Thank everything else that he was alright.

Did I mention that while the policeman was writing the report, he stopped every time to chat with his colleague? Plus, he answered his mobile phone chatting away. Is this the kind of treatment you give to a VICTIM? If that is human, I rather not be a human. Our system is fuck up.

We need to be able to file a report with medical report WITHOUT having government clinic or hospital to treat people. Any doctor will do. So let's take a moment and think. If they do, then what if the clinic refuses to do so as well? That's fuck up too! YOU ARE A DOCTOR. THINK FOR HEAVEN SAKE THE REASON YOU BECAME A DOCTOR. If it is for money, then get the fuck off to hell. Doctors had to take an oath to help people. What happened to that oath?

Seriously folks, our system is entirely fuck up if we need to go through so many procedures. The police won't lend a hand because it is out of their "jurisdiction" and doctors refuse to help because there is a medical report that needs to be filled.

Now you know why a lot of crimes happen.

Calv out.
