E-drug: Feeding the beast? (cont'd)
---------------------------------------------
In response to Jody Dalmacion's comment "our drug prices will really
just reflect what the multinationals and their friends want us to pay."
No you pay the prices that you allow the multinationals to charge you.
Other countries in your region do much better particularly with
essential drugs. What is required is political committment to control
essential drug prices!
