Two vastly opposite conditions in the status of rehabilitation services can be found in S.E. Asia and pacific nations. Rehab in underdeveloped countries is hampered by poverty, scattered rural populations, inadequate facilities, equipment and personnel, environmental barriers, poor nutrition and hygiene, ignorance and prejudice, low national priorities for rehab. The most developed countries offer many well-funded services, public support for equipment, housing, employment, anti-barrier legislation, active participation of persons with disabilities in national planning, etc. Rehab in Taiwan is somewhere in the middle, far ahead of the undeveloped, but still behind the developed. Though it can boast of many fine …
