India to witness hospital treatment – in style

The Dubai-based, ABV Group – a chain of luxury hospitals – has set its sights to establish luxury hospitals in India. These hospitals would offer personalized care and transportation in Rolls Royce for its patients – catering to the rich. .

With just 50 suites and no option of shared rooms within a hospital, the promise of a crowd-free environment is quite alluring. Away from the glorified government hospitals norm, there will be no mixing between patients or long queues.

Such initiatives aim to attract more medical tourists to the country as well as generate finances to drive charity initiatives. With approximately USD80 million in investments to execute this vision, the first luxury hospital will be operational in Mumbai by early 2017, followed by another in New Delhi.

How will the rise of luxury hospitals change healthcare industry in India?

The ultimate precious cargo – Human organs

The transportation of human organs – especially a donor’s heart – is usually done by packing it in ice inside a cooler box and getting it to the hospital as quickly as possible. Transporters have to race against time. The heart is only viable and capable of being transplanted between 4 and 6 hours after death. But a lot can go wrong during such journeys – traffic jams, bad weather or mechanical difficulties can cause delays. In addition, a heart can be damaged if it is warmed up at the end of surgery; meaning it cannot be “tested” until the transplant operation is complete. The introduction of a new heart-preservation system is set to change all that. Manufactured by Transmedics Inc. in Massachusetts, it is specifically designed to pump oxygenated donor blood and keep the heart in “a warm, beating and functioning physiological state outside of the body”. Moreover, the heart can be monitored to keep beating for up to 12 hours. Should trials of this new system be successf...

2022: Recovery or Resurgence?

The Covid-19 pandemic officially marks a grim second year this year. Nonetheless, there is some optimism among scientists that while the virus will become endemic, its threat to human life could reduce over time. In the first of a three-part Spirethoughts instalment examining analysts’ predictions for the new year ahead, we look at 3 economic and social trends that are likely to affect the global economy in 2022. Debt and inflation to grow . Global debt accelerated during the pandemic as governments continued to borrow. Twenty-five nations, including the US and China, now have total debt amounting to more than 300% of GDP, as central banks contribute to inflation by printing money, deepening the debt trap. Inflation, while on the rise, seems unlikely to hit the historic double-digit levels of the 1970s, as government spending should ease in 2022. Industries overheat amid global warming “greenflation”. The other continuing story with global imp...

China leads the way in global tourism

Between the years 2019 to 2025, one in seven of the estimated 173 million tourists to the world’s top 300 cities will be from China. Will China continue to lead global tourism growth? Leon Perera, Chief Executive Officer of Spire Research and Consulting, shared his viewpoint on the global tourism industry in China Daily – Asia Weekly section on 19 June 2019. China is leading the booming global tourism industry as the world is adjusting to the new world order in global trade. Perera highlighted that iconic cities like Rome, Paris, Tokyo and New York are still preferred by tourists. But a small proportion of tourists, driven by interest in wildlife and heritage, is contributing to a growing trend of tourism to nature reserves and rural areas. In 2019, the world’s top 300 cities will account for almost 50 per cent of the global international travelers while being home to just 20 per cent of the world’s population.

Germany: The Eurozone’s economic powerhouse

Germany is the fourth largest global economy today. Its exports amounted to EUR107 billion in March 2015 – an all-time high since the 1950’s. Despite being the only European nation with a strong manufacturing base and rising employment rate, will Germany succeed to drive Eurozone’s stagnant economy? And what lessons does Germany’s economic success hold for the rest of the world? Germany’s resurgence With the second lowest unemployment rate in the European Union (EU) at 5.3 per cent, Germany’s economy has survived many setbacks. The economic success dates back to the Industrial Revolution due to the early adoption of coal production and rail transportation. Moreover, the fall of the Berlin Wall – the reunification of West and East Germany – and the expansion of the EU created huge market opportunities for Germany. Often regarded as the ‘Sick man of Europe’, Germany had almost lost hope of returning to rapid economic growth, undergoing recessions in 2003 and a dismal 1.2 p...
