Foreign media said that Nepal is suffering from ‘Xinjiang’ tragedy. A story was told of villagers in Nepal suffering health problems after selling their kidneys for many years to make a living, while stories were also told of young people doing intensive labor in poor environments suffering from damaged kidneys.
According to Sky News in the UK on the 2nd (local time), there are so many residents of Hokse Village, a slum in Nepal, who have sold their kidneys that it is difficult to find a person in every house who has not sold their kidneys. kidneys. This is because illegal organ trafficking brokers from India have been visiting this village for years to persuade people to sell their organs. They are said to have taken kidneys from residents who were desperate for money, even lying to them, saying, “Even if the kidneys are removed, they will grow again.”
Kancha and Ram, residents of the village who sold their kidneys to raise money, said, “I can’t count how many people did that. So many people have sold their kidneys in this village, that village, everywhere.”
Villagers received money in exchange for selling their kidneys. Those struggling to make ends meet sold their kidneys because they felt they had “no choice.”
But a few years later, tragedy struck their village. Signs of abnormalities began to appear in the health of the residents who sold their kidneys. Some residents, whose bodies were weakened, even died from kidney failure.
Suman, who donated his kidney a few years ago at the age of 31, was having financial difficulties and was considering the extreme option when he received an offer to donate his kidney. Suman, who received 5 million won for donating his kidney to a woman in India, said, “My body became weak and I even lost consciousness. “Now it’s hard to work anymore,” he said. “I go around telling other people not to sell their kidneys.”
Residents of Jose Village claim they are no longer selling their kidneys, but some are said to still be venturing to raise money.
Nepal’s ‘kidney’ problem is not limited to Jose Village. To make matters worse, the number of people in their 20s and 30s suffering from kidney failure has been increasing in Nepal.
Dr Pukar Suresh, an organ transplant specialist in Nepal, analyzes that this happens particularly often among young people who go to hot countries to get jobs to earn money.
Dr said. Sures, when young people who work hard and cannot drink water in hot areas like Saudi Arabia or Dubai return to their home countries due to health problems, their kidneys are often damaged to the point where it is difficult to use them. “One in three of all transplant patients are foreign migrant workers,” he said, “They put a huge burden on our health care facilities.”
The media added, “Poverty has triggered a health crisis in Nepal, and Xinjiang is at the center of it.”
