RESOLUTION
ON THE
REPORT ON THE LUNATIC ASYLUMS IN BURMA
For the Triennium 1918—1920.
Extract from the Proceedings of the Government of Burma in the General Department,—No. K.-17,
dated the 29th May 1921.
READ—
The Report on the Lunatic Asylums in Burma for the Triennium 1918—1920.
RESOLUTION.—Again in this report, as in the report for the previous triennium,
attention is drawn to the insufficiency of the existent accommodation for lunatics
in Burma. In the previous three years the average population was 684, while
between 1918 and 1920 it rose to 833. Although the population of the Minbu
Asylum is still within the estimated capacity of the buildings, the number of square
feet provided for the sleeping accommodation of each inmate might well be
doubled. In Rangoon, the increase in the number of inmates far outruns the
increase in the provision for their accommodation. The present buildings in
Rangoon are consequently overcrowded, and conditions are made worse by the
state of a number of the cottages, which were condemned as unfit for habitation.
In order to relieve present necessities, the Superintendent of the Rangoon Lunatic
Asylum has suggested—a proposal which the Inspector-General of Civil Hospitals
approves—that 150 picked male inmates should be sent to the new buildings at
Kokine, now nearing completion, which are intended ultimately for the female
section. These men can assist in levelling sites, making roads and clearing jungle
and help in hastening the completion of the new asylum, while their transfer would
sensibly reduce overcrowding. The urgency of the demand, not only for more
accommodation, but for new accommodation in Rangoon, is so disquietingly
apparent that the Lieutenant-Governor is prepared to consider sympathetically
proposals for any other measures which will make for improved sanitary conditions,
and consequently for the better health of the inmates. He trusts that such
measures as are adopted will reduce the mortality due to tuberculosis, pneumonia
and dysentery, the increase in which during the last three years is ascribed to
overcrowding. Measures may also be feasible whereby curable patients may be
separated from incurables, thus securing what His Honour has always regarded
as one of the most humane desiderata in asylum management. These objects will
be most quickly realised if, as the Lieutenant-Governor earnestly hopes, no effort
is being spared to complete, as quickly as possible, the new buildings at Kokine.
2. While the increase in the population of the Rangoon Asylum is an unwel-
come feature of the triennium under review, the explanation of this increase is in
some ways reassuring. The suggestion that it is the type of inmate which is
changing, and that the asylums are slowly being filled with incurables, who remain
there till they die, has much to support it. At the same time, His Honour is not
prepared to deduce from the fact that the population of the Asylums is growing
ASYLUMS IN BURMA FOR THE TRIENNIUM 1918-1920.
3
The Local Government has been fortunate in securing the services of Captain
H. H. Robson, I.M.S., as a whole-time alienist in charge of the Rangoon
Asylum. He took over charge in December 1920, and has now proceeded home
on twelve months' leave. The Local Government is confident that on his return
to duty the figures in the various statistical tables will be compiled in such a way
as to permit of the making of deductions which possess scientific reliability.
5. The Lieutenant-Governor views with satisfaction the decrease in 1920 in
the death-rate, which fell from 10.77 per mille in 1919 to 7.57 per mille in 1920.
This is attributed, in the report, to Dr. O'Leary, who had charge of the Rangoon
Asylum from the 5th April till the 13th December 1920. The Lieutenant-
Governor agrees that great credit is due to Dr. O'Leary for his management of
the Asylum during the period.
6. The Lieutenant-Governor thanks those who have contributed towards
brightening the lot of the inmates in the Asylum by various gifts and entertain-
ments. His Honour would urge upon the charitably-inclined the claims of the
inmates of asylums. The importance of quiet amusements is now recognised,
both as a beneficial form of treatment and a softening influence upon minds that
are jarred and excited. There is little happiness in an asylum, and any aid
towards making life there more cheerful is welcome.
By order of the Lieutenant-Governor of Burma,
W. B. BRANDER,
Secretary to the Government of Burma.
