From the post link below about the present conditions of medical services and doctors in India, I derived some conclusions that we discuss in this post:
Health services for poor in India. Corruption in health services
In my opinion as many people also think and believe so while asking a major question:
What kind of behavior and reaction the doctors and heath workers expect from the patients, civilians and others so that social stability can make all contribute towards building a nation like India and world community?
If this question is not answered the behavior modification may violate all rules and regulations that nation and world community offers as to all civilians. We cannot claim that opposition is sign of rebellions behavior that needs behavior modification otherwise we will not have any human living life as with any civilian right to protest and seek legal help for normal life.
It seems that reactive brain (mind) is the essential identity that has some harms coming from behavior modification even leading to identity theft or changing the identity to something which one is not.
The following subjects are of great importance that can greatly help the medical world if it is put and enforced into medical syllabus as thus very essential to be a better civilians, the essence of personal contribution as social level:
1. Language, Grammar and Literature
2. Creative Arts like music, painting and so many others
3. Philosophy for higher thinking and wisdom that society needs
4. Psychology as a full fledged subject not just some parts that even layman know to lead the society
5. Sociology for understanding the social structure and its relation with social development
6. Comparative Study of Health Sciences services from ancient times to even now, as Ayurveda, Homeopathy and all other practices. It is not studying all of it for making mockery, but respecting it as well otherwise granny's any advice may seem just a fun.
7. Comparative Religious Studies that can help to understand the psyche of humans and thoughts, emotions and all that relates to mental, family and social health based topics
8. Role of Sports in life
9. Geographical effects that has not only health issues, but constitutes the cultures and customs of the world
10. All that relates to health by any means
Now, in the western civilizations, all of the above always have been prominent as Christianity and some other world religions and faiths are well understood as integrated with daily life even if one does not believe in any religion or faith.
The problem in the eastern countries do not have strong educational structure and thus the medical students and many of the doctors practice only one thing putting one to diagnose and treat without ever following what has been the marvel of health sciences, the concept of family doctor.
It is very noticeable that many doctors treat patients as if they are rats. Only the doctor is the most respectable person as all depend on them. We also notice that doctors usually consider that all other people, who have no medical degrees like MBBS or MD are inferior to them. Even the dental doctor is not considered a full fledged doctor.
The modern health revolutions has given the doctors status equal to the scientists as they conduct all experimentation with scientific equipments. Their say also surpasses that of the thinkers as their health reports determine whether one is right or wrong as it so in the law and order when medical reports make great influence leaving room for its tempering.
In my opinion, the doctors and pharmaceutical lobby has emerged as the most dominating authority. However, for better world order there is need that as a technicians have their works limited to information technology and even all others have field that describes them, the medical world in east needs it otherwise there may be famines or diseases that simply uses medical team distribute the medicines and public remains in health related threats.
Conclusively, they need more training so that the misuse of the equipments is not used by untrained doctors just see the effects and results because it is worse than terrorism as medical world cannot be asked for anything that appears questionable. In last few decades the civilians has lost the identity and are just known as common people without any recognition.
I believe we are losing the sense of equality no matter how influential we prove that it is not so. So, we may better pay attention as it helps us all.
If one has any difference in status, class, rich or poor, reactive to anything that is considered making of any kind of pollution, say sound pollution, one will be put to more reactive conditions that are just circumstantial and it is recorded as source to check the reactivity as if one has behavior problem, but basically the vehicles and all other industrial works and activities surpass the pollutions and thus any such report that says one reacts to it is totally misleading and those, who complain are spreading the pollution that has harmed health and life in east.
They may have laurels of great honors and respect from the westerner or developed countries or may be most of the authorities and officials including politicians, but it does not justify that whatever is pollution of any kind can be acceptable and thus one should not react to it because the people involved are highly influential with given and getting recognition and status from around the global community.
Thus, most of the social interactions in which officials are involved as even when they are not on duty, there is no civilian attitude, but official as we say they have governmental executable powers that they can use at the right time when one is in helpless condition, the time when one needs governmental services most. I am sure some attention will be paid if we are not in that kind of helpless condition.
It will improve the social development in which most of the people are going through global suffering living with hope only as if there will be time when it will be heard and shared.
Otherwise, it may heavily harm the youth and the sensitive people, who want to serve the world community, and I am sure it can be cured with little attention and some efforts.
When I raise any of such issue my blog is put to spam, so far 3 blogs blocked. Who complains, I do not know and I would not ask for it either.
Thanks for your reading it.

10 Points about How Private Sector Needs Government and Public Involvement - Saving Market from Corruption, Crime and Extremism of Competition
The most integrated system that runs every country in our entire world is the government. This has a great thread that has synchronization among countries in the thread named democracy. We all pay taxes and may sacrifice everything for our nation, and this essence of patriotism cannot be private sector that seems to dominate the global market.
We notice that when companies in the private sector are in trouble particularly the economic crises the help from the government is sought. Most of the governments have helped many companies. In return, they may not allow the public share in their companies. This private share is the share of government with which both the government and public both can get many benefits.
Many companies started with government share, which was later cut down until it was zero percent. It has created so many harms to the system:
1. The small companies can not compete with the big companies and thus most of the small companies have gone bankrupt and are locked now.
2. The competition has given greater facilities, but it has invited greater harm as all the facilities are not from the companies, but from the income. Thus, public investment that could have been for social property and services has gone to rich people, who in many countries avoid paying the taxes to the governments.
3. Most of us attracted by the luxurious facilities and services without even realizing that we are paying for it from own pocket.
4. It has deformed the actual and thus philosophical concept of privation, which is employing all the unemployed youth and people in general in the governmental services on the contract bases. For example, a teacher on regular basis is paid 3-5 times higher than the one on the contract base and thus privation.
5. The building that are constructed and maintained by private sector are heavily charged, but the unemployed is touching the sky. All of it can be managed by the government by contract bases. On the other hand, we claim that labor is not available in the market and thus nothing is going smooth, but it seems misguiding.

If You Live in a Developing Country, are Governmental Services Similar or Same to Charity?
In my opinion all that the government possesses and uses if from, by and for public and thus it is the most common identity, the governmental body, which is a the biggest public property that any nation possesses. If we cannot utilize for all that we pay our taxes and work for, we may be causing more troubles if not any good. We all represent a nation and if it is group or body, we are never excluded. Thus, it deserves the highest priority that the public property and services get the same status as the charity organizations, is not it.
Moreover, when we earn from insurance and other governmental sector, all of it also services, so we need to pay attention that Internet organizations, may all be private or nongovernmental, like Google support this cause for greater good in favor of all in the public. It can give a greater level of governmental services as if charity organizations offer when we compare all the rates of private sector with it for anything that we say "in the market".
In the developing countries, the governmental services in health, education and all other kinds of possible ones are cheaper than even the charity or non-profit organizations when we compare the rates at which these are provided, however the private sector seems to take over most of the governmental services and we may find our selves in great need of amendments in future, while comparing governmental, charity and private sector services. It is not any kind of difficult right now as it seems to me.
So, if you live in the developing country, please think about it: Are Governmental Services Similar or Same to Charity?
