  • Indian Ocean Martime Museum (IOMM)
    The IOMM will be a part of the redevelopment of Zanzibar's Stone Town and its waterfront. It will be located in the recently restored Stone Town Cultural Centre, in direct proximity to the port. The museum programme will be constructed around the theme of the Indian Ocean as a context for the exchange of goods, ideas and myths in which diverse civilizations have coexisted, interacted and shared intrinsic common values over time. It will showcase the maritime cultures of the Indian Ocean, including the display of naval vessels and other artifacts that illustrate the history of the commercial and cultural contacts between Africa, the Middle East and the Indian sub-continent. Addressing the educational needs of the local population of all ages and functioning as an information and communication centre for foreign visitors, the museum will feature educational and training programmes geared to develop local maritime crafts. The ultimate objective is to promote traditional ship-building as a means to generate revenue and income in addition to the revitalization of a maritime culture which otherwise would be on its way to extinction.

Poor digestion of lactose, the sugar in milk, is very common as is poor absorption of fructose, a sweetener found in many processed foods. Poor digestion or absorption of these sugars could aggravate the symptoms of IBS since unabsorbed sugars often cause increased formation of gas.

  • Common Bleeding Disorders
    Hemophilia in Pakistan:
    • A relatively young country, with an ancient past, Pakistan achieved independence from Britain on August 14, 1947, after its bloody partition from India.
    • Pakistan's health care system has crumbled: public hospitals are in appalling condition, even basic treatment unavailable for many common disorders.
    • Private hospitals-modern and fully equipped-foster the only available research, and provide the most advanced and comprehensive care for people with hemophilia, but are extremely expensive and beyond the reach of most.
    • No infrastructure currently exists to provide public and free care to people with this lifelong bleeding disorder.
    • Of the estimated 12,000 people with hemophilia in Pakistan, only 3,100 have been identified.
    • Until early 1980, hemophilia was not even known to exist within the country, and only a few patients were alive. In 1982 the first blood bank was formed.
    • Currently only five major cities-Karachi, Lahore, Rawalpindi-Islamabad, Peshawar Multan, Faisalabad and Quetta-now have facilities to provide plasma or cryo.
    • And treatment at its best in Pakistan is still primitive by Western standards. Virally inactivated high or intermediate purity factor concentrates are available only to the minority elite, who are wealthy enough to pay out of pocket. But the majority of patients, the poor, receive plasma or cryo. They most often receive inferior plasma, which is not always screened for HBV, HCV and HIV.

In the case of enlarged tonsils and adenoids, tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy is usually successful in relieving the problem. If the problem is not the tonsils and adenoids, the cause of the obstruction must be determined. For example, surgery of the jaw may be required. In some cases, even a tracheostomy is necessary. Non-surgical therapies include oral prostheses (difficult in children), medications (steroids, stimulants), and weight reduction.

This can cause the metabolic activities in the cells to decrease. Metabolic wastes can then filtrate into the organs, causing them to become sluggish.
