Well, the situation down here is getting rather critical. I just received another info from a friend of mine that ALL elective surgeries for this particular hospital has to be cancelled and postponed due to lack of medications and consumables!! WTH !! And mind you, this is one of the biggest hospital in Malaysia and supposedly a major referral centre for a big state in Peninsular Malaysia. Other then the inability of doing a lot of important blood test, the angiogram machine is also down for the last 1-2 months!
Is this pure mismanagement or lack of fund from the government? I got no idea, as I am not working there anymore. But one thing for sure, many poor souls are going to die, ” Mati Katak” .
My humble advise to the public, please get yourself a medical card! I even tell this to all civil servants as well. Many pensioners regret for not taking a medical card as they trusted the government will take care of them during their golden age. I have many retired civil servants coming to see me in my private clinic as they have given up on the government hospitals, the lack of passion and poor quality of younger doctors! It’s always who you know!
Are we heading to a developed nation or the opposite direction!!
