The healthcare system in Thailand is developing very well and attracting medical tourists. Thailand is definitely a good location for exchange and travel. This summer, we visited Chulalongkorn University, the top university with the longest history in Thailand. Chulalongkorn University provided us with a great opportunity to explore the differences between the healthcare systems of Hong Kong and Thailand. We observed and discussed with nurses from various wards in the Police General Hospital. We also visited a Thai health centre, which contained much advanced knowledge in its beautiful and eco-friendly building. This exchange also gave us the opportunity to step into the community and visit a local village with a high elderly population. We would choose to go to Chulalongkorn University again if given the chance, as we learnt a lot and enjoyed our time there.
