00:10:40for health workers, and the transfer of new medical
00:10:43technology. The Russian side also announced its readiness
00:10:47to expand technical cooperation with the health sector
00:10:50of Afghanistan. Several questions
00:10:53arise. How much can the use of Belarus's experiences
00:10:57in diagnosing and treating heart diseases and Russia's technical cooperation
00:11:01improve the quality of specialized health services
00:11:05in Afghanistan? And finally, how can cooperation
00:11:08with Russia in the import of medicines, vaccines, and medical equipment,
00:11:12transfer of technology, and training of health workers
00:11:15meet the basic needs of Afghanistan's
00:11:19health system?
00:12:03that we are almost 40 to 50 years behind
00:12:07in the health sector. And because
00:12:10we are behind in every aspect, both in terms
00:12:13of technology, equipment,
00:12:17medicine, and experienced
00:12:21and technical personnel.
00:12:24These relations play a very good role
00:12:28and will be the beginning of a new chapter
00:12:31to develop Afghanistan's health sector.
00:12:35However, unfortunately,
00:12:38a fact that most people
00:12:41do not accept is the role
00:12:45of the private sector in health.
00:12:48In all countries of the world, if we look at our neighboring
00:12:51countries like India, Pakistan, and Iran,
00:12:55their private health sector has developed
00:12:58greatly. The government alone
00:13:01cannot provide these facilities
00:13:04and equipment to the people.
00:13:08Especially in Afghanistan, where the Ministry of Public Health
00:13:11itself announces that more than 75 percent
00:13:15of treatment costs are paid by the patient.
00:13:18डब्ल्यू
00:13:22Almost 18.
00:13:33In a country where patients pay for their own expenses, why should the private sector not be present in this health sector? Exactly.
00:13:36What I want to say about the trip is that I have previously suggested
00:13:40that every trip that the Minister makes to neighboring
00:13:44countries should include
00:13:46at least representatives from the private sector.
00:13:50At present, almost
00:13:5399 percent of drug manufacturing
00:13:57is done by the private sector. Yes, and
00:14:00most of the patients who go to modern hospitals
00:14:04and have access to modern equipment in Afghanistan are in private
00:14:07hospitals. So
00:14:10they should be included because
00:14:14the private sector is the arm of the Ministry of Health. If we perform
00:14:18a good heart surgery in one of the
00:14:20private hospitals, the Ministry
00:14:24of Public Health announces that the first heart surgery
00:14:27was performed in Afghanistan. This means that the work
00:14:31of the private sector is still a source of pride for the Ministry
00:14:35of Public Health and the entire country. If the private
00:14:39sector were also included in this team, I don't know
00:14:41if it is or not. And
00:14:45more facilities should be given to the private sector. The government
00:14:49itself should plan, do planning.
00:14:52Right. A proposal has also been presented
00:14:55by Afghanistan to Russia and Belarus. The points you mentioned, specifically
00:14:59regarding the private sector that you highlighted, what is the main reason
00:15:03that their presence is less visible than the points you mentioned?
00:15:07Is the private sector itself not willing to be present
00:15:11in various health dimensions in Afghanistan, or is there also a lack
00:15:14of attention from the government? Unfortunately, it has been the case
00:15:18since ancient times, and even now, we consider the private
00:15:22and public sectors as two separate things.
00:15:26And there is a behavior, so to speak, of a step-son
00:15:29in a step-family. But
00:15:33the private sector should be included. I will give you another
00:15:37example. Currently, wherever the Minister of Trade travels,
00:15:41if there are 5 people from the Ministry
00:15:44of Trade, he takes 20 people from the private sector with him.
00:15:48The private sector is even willing to pay for its own travel expenses
00:15:51and other costs. It is not a burden
00:15:55on the government. But if the private sector
00:15:58is present in these trips, look, the government
00:16:01doesn't do open-heart surgery. The government
00:16:05doesn't have angiography.
00:16:38What we know, the whole nation knows, Mr.
00:16:41Nooruddin Azizi, the Minister of Industry and Commerce of the country, has also
00:16:45traveled to this country, and there have been discussions
00:16:49and meetings on economic relations and their expansion. How much
00:16:53can this trip be considered an important step
00:17:15into strengths. One of the areas
00:17:19where we need to discuss capacity building in the health sector
00:17:23is that a lot of effort has been made domestically
00:17:27so that the Afghan government can have committed
00:17:30and professional specialists in the health sector
00:17:33of its governance. However, based on their interests
00:17:37and wishes, our professional specialists are not
00:17:41happy to be in the country; they go abroad to invest, or they invest
00:17:45in the private sector within the country. If you visit
00:17:49all of Afghanistan, all private hospitals
00:17:52and clinics, you will see if the attitude and behavior are proportionate
00:17:56to the pockets of our people. Does a patient
00:17:59who refers to a private hospital or clinic, instead
00:18:03of getting
00:18:06what they need, get ten more tests prescribed,
00:18:09telling them to go and get them? A disease that might cost 500 rupees for initial tests
00:18:13costs tens of thousands of Afghanis in our private clinics. This is not
00:18:17the reality. The fact that the government has been able to provide services
00:18:21to more than several million people in the past 5 years, despite
00:18:25all the political and economic pressures, is still commendable.
00:18:28The fact that the Minister of Health travels to regional
00:18:31and trans-regional countries to attract cooperation
00:18:35to Afghanistan is a positive step.
00:18:38When countries like Belarus and Russia commit to working
00:18:42with Afghanistan, they don't do it for free.
00:18:45Any machinery that comes from Belarus or Russia
00:18:49to Afghanistan, they get paid for it. Yes,
00:18:51meaning the economy is important to them, but it is important
00:18:55to our people. When today, to get a visa for Pakistan
00:18:59and Iran, they spend hundreds of thousands of rupees,
00:19:02or in India, if the same treatment system exists in Afghanistan,
00:19:06then it is good for our people. Have each of us, as committed
00:19:10and specialized professionals, fulfilled our duty towards
00:19:13this country, towards our compatriots? Go to our government hospitals
00:19:17and private hospitals in Kabul, and you will see.
00:19:20If a patient is dying, and their medicine costs
00:19:24500 rupees, someone who owns a private clinic will not
00:19:28accept even that 500 rupees. They will say, "Bring our money." And
00:19:32when you go and observe the medicine that is purchased, you will see
00:19:35that it is 20-30 percent more expensive. When we
00:19:39analyze the weaknesses and strengths,
00:19:42our audience, the Afghan nation, manages the perceptions
00:19:45in one direction. These trips are not without achievements.
00:19:49Yes, because Afghanistan in the private sector
00:19:53and in the health sector faces many
00:19:57shortcomings, and these trips can complement these
00:20:00programs. It is gratifying that the Minister has also visited
00:20:04one of the hospitals in Belarus for heart conditions.
00:20:07In Afghanistan, we have many heart patients, and in total,
00:20:11two hospitals in Kabul treat them. And any patient
00:20:15who comes here, when they leave, must have a lot of money in their pocket
00:20:18for heart treatment. And in the cancer sector, tens
00:20:22of thousands of our compatriots over the past 40 years
00:20:25have contracted cancer due to bombardments
00:20:29and chemical materials used in Afghanistan through
00:20:33foreign bombardments. Yes, more on this
00:20:36factor.
00:20:47that in line with that human dimension and Afghanistan's collaborations.
00:21:23In the whole world, every investor, whether in the private sector
00:21:27or the governmental sector, or the governments themselves, security is important
00:21:30for them. And in addition to tax exemptions,
00:21:34in the past 5 years, the Afghan government, through the Economic Commission
00:21:37that is brothers in production, has exempted some of the tax
00:21:41exemptions in the private sector and machinery
00:21:44in the industry sector up to 100 percent. Yes,
00:21:48and they have told foreign investors
00:22:20Along with political relations, economic relations also strengthen.
00:22:23Afghanistan has the best resources. We have natural resources,
00:22:26uranium, emerald, lapis lazuli, iron, the Wakhan
00:22:30Corridor of Badakhshan, Qoshtepa, and besides
00:22:34large projects like CASA-1000, Afghan Trans, the Khaf-Afghanistan
00:22:37railway. Any country that has interactions with Afghanistan,
00:22:41especially Central Asian countries, is not far from these issues
00:22:44of benefiting from Afghanistan's
00:22:52What are Afghanistan's current essential
00:22:55health needs that at least Belarus and also
00:22:58Russia can help address for
00:23:01Afghanistan? The points and issues discussed during
00:23:04this trip. We need in all
00:23:08areas of medicine. We have a great
00:23:11need for medicine and medical equipment.
00:23:14And it is imperative that we develop
00:23:18these things within
00:24:20We complain about it, but their eyes are on those
00:24:23Afghan hospitals that have sacrificed
00:24:26and are working. We need to strengthen
00:24:30ourselves within Afghanistan.
00:24:33The hospitals that we
00:24:37talk about for heart disease, thank God, we have more than 15
00:24:41heart hospitals in Kabul. We don't have two.
00:24:44And if the fees
00:24:47for angiography...
00:25:50The specialist and his team are present. Well, of course, there is a lot of burden,
00:25:53a lot of work. When, for example,
00:25:57we always see clips on social media showing that they went to a children's
00:26:01hospital, and five children
00:26:04were put in one bed. Now, tell us why
00:26:07these five children were put there. Because there is no space.
00:26:11But for this room, one doctor
00:26:14and two nurses are appointed. This doctor and nurse, instead
00:26:18of seeing one patient, see five. Then,
00:26:22if a visitor comes and asks unnecessary questions, the doctor says,
00:26:26"Let me see these patients, I have many." Then you see them
00:26:30complaining on TV that the doctors' behavior is bad. Because
00:27:36Well, there are some problems, but
00:27:39I still say that the Ministry of Public Health can control
00:27:43it. It can create good regulations and do very good checks. But
00:27:46when I bring a new branch of medicine
00:27:50to Afghanistan and perform a new surgery,
00:27:54when I tell the media, they say it's an advertisement.
00:27:58You pay, and then we will publish it. And this policy
00:28:02of neighboring countries was to show
00:28:05Afghanistan's doctors and medicine
00:28:08as inferior in the eyes of the people
00:28:11so that they would go abroad for treatment. Therefore,
00:28:15the Ministry of Public Health, along with the private sector,
00:28:18should strengthen internal capabilities in these
00:28:22areas. Be well, Afghan. Now, the main discussion
00:28:26is that we see meetings with various international
00:28:29countries and companies for the improvement
00:28:33of the health situation in Afghanistan and other
00:28:36issues. Do you think that at least from Russia
00:28:40and Belarus, a practical step, something that the people
00:28:43of Afghanistan expect, will be taken?
00:28:47Obviously, Belarus and Russia are countries
00:28:51that, in the past five years, have cooperated with Afghanistan
00:28:54based on mutual economic, political, and intelligence interests.
00:28:58And these promises that the Minister of Public Health of Russia has given
00:29:01to Afghanistan,
00:29:32This nation, this nation, does not have God to eat. This is important for us. Today, when the Minister
00:29:35of Public Health of Afghanistan travels there, he sees
00:29:39it, and it motivates him to see where the countries of the world
00:29:43have reached in the health sector, in heart disease, in cancer. Today, you should
00:29:47visit our oncology hospitals. How are they?
00:29:50Thousands of patients are on the waiting list to receive
00:29:53their chemotherapy. But when this becomes active in Afghanistan,
00:29:57and I hope the private sector will make an effort,
00:30:01not an effort to take money from the people's pockets.
00:30:32The Afghan government is committed to managing public
00:30:35media services, and this will naturally eliminate
00:30:39distances. When you talk about Afghanistan's public health,
00:30:43when you talk about the police hospital, when you talk about the 400-bed hospital,
00:30:46when you talk about the security hospital and other hospitals, you should go
00:30:50and see how many patients they have. How capable is a doctor?
00:30:53I hope they also improve their organizational structure,
00:30:57their salaries, and the management of their programs.
