Results: The results shown MOH regulation no. 1109 in the year 2007, interpreted differently by provincial Health Office. In the most provinces have not even been implemented. The professional organizations did not have any college to assess the competence of its members, health personnel licensing requirements more difficult than traditional healers. In addition, many professional organizations which have not been officially recognized standards of competence and have not had, and still there are associations that have not been accredited. So that the recommendations given in the framework of the licensing of health workers accountable difficult.
