Sibel Siber: You Cannot Sustain the State by Simply Saying 'We Will Preserve the State, Our Noble State'

Dr. Sibel Siber appeared as a guest on the program "Objektif" hosted by Erçin Şahmaran on Kıbrıs Postası TV.

Speaking about the prescription investigation, Siber stated, "My peace of mind was directly related to the confidence of the public in me."

Siber suggested that it would be appropriate to make statements regarding the prescription investigation after the process has concluded.

Asserting that no prescription bearing a doctor's signature and seal is fake, Siber stated, "If someone has made an unjust profit based on a prescription, then that can be questioned."

Sibel Siber remarked that if a patient cannot remember the medicine they received, it does not constitute a fake prescription.

Highlighting the risks doctors take when prescribing medication, Siber said, "Prescribing medication is a serious matter. Therefore, it is not a matter that can be easily judged."

Siber criticized the lack of oversight and deficiencies in the Social Security Institution, stating, "There is a malfunction in the system; it is the duty of the police, not social security, to carry out the necessary inspections."

"THE AUDIT, WHICH SHOULD BE THE MOST IMPORTANT LEG OF THE STATE, LEADS US TO QUESTION THE GENERAL STRUCTURE OF THE STATE"

Stressing that audit should be the most important leg of the state, Siber emphasized the need to adhere to the main laws.

Siber attributed the root cause of the current situation in the country to the failure of state institutions to take their responsibilities seriously.

"YOU CANNOT SUSTAIN THE STATE BY SIMPLY SAYING 'WE WILL PRESERVE THE STATE, OUR NOBLE STATE'"

"You cannot sustain the state by simply saying 'we will preserve the state, our noble state'," Siber said, underlining the necessity for individuals in the decision-making mechanism of the state to realize the extent of their responsibility.

Sibel Siber pointed out that appointments in the country are made by individuals who will collect votes in the next elections, their families, or relatives, stating that the country is in this situation because appointments are not made based on merit.

"THERE ARE MANY ISSUES THAT THE POLICE SHOULD ADDRESS; SOCIAL SECURITY SHOULD FULFILL ITS RESPONSIBILITIES"

Stating that social security should also be questioned, Siber said, "There are many issues that the police should address; social security should fulfill its responsibilities."

Siber interpreted the increasing criminal incidents in the country as a "lack of authority" and emphasized the need for heavy penalties for certain issues such as environment and traffic.
