Why does Police Hospital still operate while Chulalongorn Hospital cannot?


Chulalongkorn Hospital, located far away from center of Protestor.



Police Hospital located on Rachaprasong Intersection, next to Protestor.


Red Shirt invaded Chulalongkorn Hospital, which is very far away from the center of protestor, forcing to Close all hospital department! Interestingly, Police Hospital which is located next to the protestors does still operate normally! What makes it happen?


Above mentioned event happened on April 29,2010. After the incidence that the Red Shirt asked "Permission" from Chulalongkorn hospital to explore Chulalongkorn hospital if there are soldiers and other troop inside any hospital buldking after the protestors heard that rumors that the army would employ troops, staying inside Chulalongkorn hospital, to dispurse the protestors. Before this incidence, CU had evacuated all patients from the building closing to Rachdumri Road to other buildings and closed them all, without leaving any medical personnel! This incidence convinced the Red shirt to believe that the rumors might become true because CU hospital used to stand supporting the Yellow Shirt, which is opposite to the Red, and the Yellow has very closed relationship with the current government!

The Red arrived at CU hospital after they declared to go to explore this area around half an hour. They CU hospital director negotiated with for a while and afterward nothing had been found in the buildings! The next morning, the CU medical personnel and main stream media condemned the Red by identifying that even in the war time, no barbaric behavior like the Red's action!

However, there are numerous arguments from that accusation. Firstly, the most interesting phenomena, why can the Police Hospital still operate to treat all kinds of patients in all departments, even if it is located very close to protestors? How cannot the CU hospital operate to treat the patients even if it is very far from the center of protestor?

Secondly, before the occurence of public demonstration, Police Hospital declares that all medical personnel are preparing to treat all Thais under the project of "No Disease" including the protestors! However, the CU hosital used to declare its standing point giving no treatment to all police officers who perfromed their duties on October 7, 2008, after the incident of demonstration dispursion of Yellow shirt.

Thirdly, all medical personnel in Polic Hospital have never blamed all kinds of political movements. They perform their duties to treat all person without regarding the "conflicting colour groups" in Thailand. However,those of CU hospital joined the Yellow and became a multi-coulor group against the former government, and support the current government, which is opposite to the Red Shirt!

After the incidence, medical personnel from CU hospital are also prone to support other coulor group, except Red, by using all media to blame the Red's behavior after the incidence of April 29,2010. The assertive email forwarded on behave of CU medical personnel also blamed the Red to citizens in Thailand, and maybe all around the world! It is doubtful if such e-mail created by medical personnel because the Director declared their impartiality status and they willing to treat all groups of people without being enemy of the Red! However, the media and other CU medical personnel made it clear in opposite way!

Lastly, all medical personnel from Police Hospital are willing to treat all patients in crisi events, and all department of police hospital still fully operate to take care all patients even if it is very closed to the protestors! However, why cannot the CU medical personnel treat the patients even if it is very far from the center of protestors? Why must CU hospital evacuate all patients to other hospital while police hospital still take care its patients in the same "dangerous" location?


Other facts can be found in Prachatai.net, but not in main stream media, and governmental media!
