11 Many people suggested that we come to Kuching because they said that the medical treatment here was good. The guy over there had the experience of falling ill and being cured here. We weren t sure about coming to Kuching, but after we heard about it through word-of-mouth, we decided to come. (Wife of an Indonesian medical traveller in Malaysia, a civil servant in his 50s)* *Source: Ormond (2014)

12 I think that 90 percent of patients here come from Indonesia especially from Pontianak. We understand why. Doctors here are more open, honest, and explain to us whether illnesses can be cured or not. They will keep us informed giving us the percentage of likelihood for a cure, giving us all the information we need. They are clearer and more open friendlier, more familiar. (Indonesian medical traveller in Malaysia, a small business owner in her 40s)* *Source: Ormond (2014)

13 People are forced to come here [to Malaysia]. It s about our lives. We already spent money on local health treatment [in Indonesia] without being cured. The situation makes it difficult for Indonesia to develop its health services.. (Indonesian medical traveller in Malaysia, a small business owner in his 60s)* *Source: Ormond (2014)
