Malawi is the only country in this part of the world that offers free health service, This has resulted on additional pressure on our health service by patients from neighbouring countries

This is not a good move, to other people that’s a lot of money & people will be denied their constitutional rights to proper treatment when they’re sick. I was shocked that to get a death certificate for my departed Mum was K30, 000 at QECH in 2011. Why all that money??????

This is a total lie. Who told you that? Or you were swindled. Death certificate is much less than 10 000 kwacha as of today. Osamanamiza anthu man muzalangidwa.

In the first place this started long time ago like 2009 at KCH skin department. It seems good but on the other hand no. In most cases these moneys don’t go to Govt they end up in people’s pockets. Its either an attendant or someone else. They issue GRs without a stamp etc. If they rectify this I stand to support it. Uku ndiye kuwapatsa danga kuti adye ndithu.
