The welfare of those formally employed with government and NGOs should be improved. They are underpaid and not properly facilitated professionally.

The veterinary Association should reorganise and identify itself with micro-service providers in their department. If nothing is done to improve veterinarians’ conditions of work, brain drain will not stop. activities of quacks.
