Verifying Foreign Credentials: A Ghanaian Case Highlights Challenges and Misinformation
The challenges of verifying foreign credentials are highlighted in a recent video by NDC TV. The video focuses on a case involving a Vietnamese doctor in Ghana. The presenter, NDC TV, explains that confirming the doctor's license proved difficult due to the lack of readily available cross-border verification systems. He shows screenshots of Facebook posts and chats to illustrate his point. "You need a unique license number to verify someone's credentials," NDC TV explains in the video. He also notes the prevalence of misinformation online, stating that "people are quick to share information without verifying its accuracy." The video serves as a cautionary tale, emphasizing the importance of verifying information before sharing it online. NDC TV's video underscores the need for improved international verification systems to prevent the spread of misinformation and protect the public.
