How to unlock Apple Watch ECG functionality for if branded support not available to my region?

As a citizen in Sri Lanka (Asia) we are not eligible to use branded support features like ECG and Blood oxygen app etc. My question is why is that and how to enable those features. OR when will be available for us?

Those features turn your watch into a medical device and because of that those features need your governments approval.
