In a shocking revelations, a Thai medical student, known only as A, has stepped forward, accusing several educational service agencies of overcharging her and 20 fellow students studying in the Philippines and fabricating documents necessary for medical licences in Thailand.

 

A, who dreams of practising medicine, has tirelessly gathered evidence, which she submitted to the Foundation to Reclaim Social Justice on 31st October. According to her, these agencies enrolled them in a university whose certification by the Medical Council of Thailand had lapsed, preventing them from securing medical licences upon completing their studies.

 

The agencies demanded 30,000 baht for securing these essential licences, a stark contrast to the official 15,000 baht fee. While A and most peers refused to pay, some succumbed, gaining licences through counterfeit documents.

 

Determined to stand her ground, A plans to file a formal complaint with the Medical Council of Thailand, focusing on uncovering any corruption within the Council itself. The vice president of the foundation, Raphatsit Pattarasirichaisin, has vowed to scrutinise the university's certification and push for action to ensure that medical qualifications remain merit-based, safeguarding patient safety.

 

This unfolding scandal raises significant questions about the integrity of educational and licencing processes within the medical field, impacting future Thai doctors and, ultimately, the health of their patients.

Just another case of corruption. IMHO (fairly sure I'm not alone on this one) every govt dept has corruption. This country is so bent it's not funny. Corruption from the very top down. Corruption is totally endemic here.

Why PH? Thailand has pretty good medical ed. facilities

Or she dreamed to get international license and work as a doctor somewhere else?

 

Thai student will travel to Pinoy-land to enjoy tagalog/phinglish-spoken lectures?

There's something is missing - I guess it is very old "buy uni. diploma online" scam.

When was it? About 20 years ago?
