My article deals with the decrepit condition of the medical profession in Sri Lanka today. Notwithstanding the dedication of some in the profession, the overwhelming perception is that the profession is reaked in corruption and malpractice.

There are strong rumours that those who have stood up against the corruption have been killed.

I ask what can be done in this situation to address this growth of corrupt practices. Please read my article in full, in Sinhala, here or download it as a PDF here.
