Comparative Analysis of Health Care Delivery System: Pakistan vs. Brunei Darussalam

Abstract

Health of a nation depends upon the healthcare system of their country, and a country health policy is the backbone of its healthcare system. To attain economic stability, a country must have a better and effective healthcare delivery system which will produce a good labor force. Many developing countries are reforming their healthcare systems to meet the ongoing challenges in demographics and to overcome the increasing burden of chronic and non-communicable disease. Pakistan is administratively composed of four provinces; Sindh, Punjab, Baluchistan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) and along with it federally administered tribal areas (FATA) and Gilgit Baltistan (GB) region. This paper focuses on comparative analysis of healthcare delivery system of Pakistan and Brunei. Brunei Darussalam is a small country in South-East Asia. Unlike Pakistan it has four districts; Brunei-Muara, Tutong, Belait and Temburong. Climate is tropical, with high humidity and heavy rainfall with sudden thundery showers in the months of January and November only.
