On 3 Jun 2024, the Vietnam tour group had a reunion with Frances who is a permanent resident of New Zealand. She opted to stay and work there as her two sons are citizens there.
As an administration manager in a hospital, she is in charge of 7 referred diabetic patients whom the Specialist would entertain each workday morning day at the Hospital. The Specialist would be in private practice after that. "No show" would be her Key Performance Indicators, meaning that the number of patients coming for treatment.
Seven patients would be by appointment for the day. Only urgent cases would be attended to while other might have to wait months. Some die before their appointment. Patients were mainly islanders - Maoris, Samoans and others who have chronic diseases like diabetes. She would have to phone a taxi and make arrangements for the patient to be picked up and sent to the public hospital where she worked. Many times, the patient did not turn up despite the free taxi services!
To resolve the no shows, the hospital engaged a Maori to do house visits to check and educate the prospective patients so that they would accept the free taxi services and go for their appointments.
Her previous job in Singapore was as a patient assistant to the doctors at a public hospital in the suburb. The specialist would have an entourage of intern doctors, nurses and she would take notes of patient conditions. Here in New Zealand, the specialist treats 7 patients only. He does not have an entourage. Hence her workload is much less stressful. She said she earned more than in Singapore. As she can speak Mandarin and other dialects, she is called to phone the prospective Chinese nationals to come for appointment as her colleagues cannot communicate with them.
"You can earn $50 per hour as an interpreter," he boss told her. "But you have to study for one year at get your certification." At her age, with two grown up adult sons, she did not look forward to more examinations.
She had passed the phlebotomist test in Singapore and has the certificate to practise as a phlebomtomist in Singapore. But she was not keen on this work in New Zealand.

COMMENTS by Dr Sing Kong Yuen.
The cat was bitten by a dog on 7-5-2024 night. She came to RAVS the
next morning by complaint of increased respiratory efforts and
lethargy. Treatment was given. Medication and wound closure by the RAVS vet.
TIPS:
It is important
to X-ray the chest in such cases. Right 10th and 11th rib fracture and subcutaneous emphysemas.
do a blood test which showed anaemia but no blood borne infection. Cat was treated at RAVS, Myanmar and so far, there is no complaint.
PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: Using P Mode.
16 May 2013. I used P Mode at this time as recommended by a friend
when I told him I could not know how to use settings of my Canon 70D
and took this photo.
Now in 2024, I use AV Mode, TP Mode and
Manual Mode using Canon R5. Practise with lower end camera first as
it is much more affordable.

Massive dam-building spree across the Mekong river in recent decades as harnessing the power of flowing water to generate electricity is one of the oldest form of renewable energy. Hydropower dams are a reliable and clean source of energy and income.
But hydropower has non-carbon environmental impacts. Hydropower projects affect the river' s natural rhythm. They change water levels, block fish migration passages and affect agriculture which depends on the natural ability of the river system to produce sediments, nutrients and bring water through the system.
Alternative approaches to clean energy design are the building of large-scale wind parks and installing floating solar panels on the Mekong dam reservoirs in Laos and Thailand.
NATURE-BASED SOLUTIONS
Instead of taming the Mekong River with concrete and channelized barriers, the river should reclaim its own course through the conservation of its natural resources.
For example, mangroves and marshes can act as sponges, absorbing water and reducing the impact of waves on the shorelines. Restoring and protecting natural habitats can help mitigate floods, improve water quality and enhance biodiversity.
LISTENING TO THE LOCALS
in pushing forward alternative solutions and approaches in the region. E.g. Chiang Khong Conservation Group in Northern Thailand. Activists succeeded in stopping Chinese engineers from blasting river rapids along the Thai-Laos border to allow large Chinese ships to navigate further downstream. The Thai government halted the cross-border project due to its potential environmental harm.
PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: Shoes at a mall. Use AV. Take a wider frame.
New shoes. Canon R5, AV, 30mm, 1/50 sec, f/8.0, ISO 200
I took a wider frame and crop image to a square. I did not photoshop away the extreme left and right parts of shoes so as to give an interesting story to the viewer that there are more varieties of shoe in this new shoe shop in Bishan Mall on 23 May 2024. AV Mode is ok if you have the settings correct, esp. f/8.0 and ISO 200.
