Eye Witness Account of the Under Funded Mental Services Available to the Underserved People of Cambodia and Viet Nam

Manohar V

I would like to bring to the attention of the MUR and our colleagues in the APA as a whole the urgent needs of the people of Cambodia and Viet Nam. A group of about 40 toured VN and Cambodia. This delegation under the leadership of Dr. Pedro Ruiz, MD was organized by the People to People Ambassador Program. We had notable APA members in our delegation among them: Dr. Nada Stotland and Dr. Carol Nadelson. We wear able to meet and exchange our observations and discuss our mutual interests with members of the staff and administrators of key institutions, NGO's and MH professionals in the community in both Nations. We left on March 24th and returned on April 3 to LAX. At the very first meeting with the Psychiatrists from the mental health Center of Ho Chi Minh City and of the Khmer Soviet Friendship Hospital we realized with trepidation that there more psychiatrists in our one bus than there were in all of Cambodia or Viet Nam.
