Chronic Kidney Disease in Sri Lanka
- Thread starter neo76
- Start date
If deaths due to kidney diseases continues in this rate, it will exceed number of deaths occurred due to tsunami, in next 10 years time.
But i'm sure the death rate will increase with time, and the deaths will exceed the number of tsunami deaths in much less than 10 years

Re : Agricultural research institute
The agricultural research institutes in Sri Lanka have
been introducing new rice species/ sub species. It's
true that these newly introduced rice species/ sub-species
produce more rice. But, unlike the rice species we have been
using in good old days, the natural immunity of the new rice
specieces are very minimal. So, essentially they depend on
fertilizers, veedicides, etc. (a lot of agro chemicals are required)
Hariyata bool ballo wage thamai. Beheth tika welawata dunne naththnam
marenawa.
It is true that there is a financial benefit to and individual and
the country by these new rice species. But, ultimately the population
end up in Chronic Kidney Disease. At the end of the day, you are spending
more money for the treatment of Chronic Kidney Disease, than what you
saved from using newly introduced rice species. This is true at individual
level and at the Country Level.

Just have a look at the above e paper.
First page has an article related to this topic.
If the information in that article are true, that country knowingly has sent pesticides
containing glyphosate to this country.
(That article says pesticides containing glyphocytes also known to cause chronic kidney disease)
(we have been so far relating it mainly to Arsenic etc in fertilizers)

Anyway, some people say that if we switch to the old methods (organic) of fertilization and our traditional rice (unlike BG64, MP3 LOL ), it's true, we'll have a high cost in the beginning.
But, when we take into account the cost an individual and the country would be spending to treat Chronic Renal Failure, it will be the cheaper option in the long run.
Just to emphasis the magnitude of the problem, I like to tell you a fact I heard.
Some doctors have done a screening study at Madawachchiya.
And the had found 10% OF THE POPULATION ARE SUFFERING FROM CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE. Just take into account that, they have done the study on people who looks apparently healthy. Just imagine the situation, in next few years, when Medawachchiya and Anuradhapura hospitals get filled with these kidney patients.
As a treatment, I know that they are doing kidney transplants. Anyway, have you anyone gone through the values of 5 year or 10 year survival of these patients after transplant. I don't think this is a solution. Believe me or not

Macho. Some multi national companies are very strong.
They may be strong more than a government of a small country.

During the recent banning of some milk products, some multi national companies had a loss of many billions. Ultimately government agents of some countries also got involved in lifting the rules.
Ultimately the milk product companies were smart enough to put that loss into the customers. That was the reason was the recent massive prize hike of milk products.
It's a complicated issue
A similar issue.
It's well known that we are importing some low quality drugs from india.
From time to time, SL government have been temporarily suspending their import.
But, when ever we stop their import, i have heard that government agents from our neighboring country has got involved.
So, it's complicated issue.

Another similar issue.
We all know that one person/ company started building (may be at least assembling) some cars in SL. What we could have done was to give tax concessions and promote the industry within the country. So, that gradually he could have increased the percentage of locally manufactured parts in his product.
But I heard (i don't know this fact for sure. but there's a chance for that to be true), when government tried to give tax concessions for that car assembling company, other multi national companies who import well established brands of cars, did a much influence.
So, it's a complicated issue.
Very difficult to overcome all these hurdles.
You have to be much tricky
