KUCHING: The government's plan to increase the country's healthcare allocation should be accelerated starting from the upcoming Budget 2025 , not only for infrastructure development but also for human capital, says Datuk Dr Kalwinder Singh KhairaThe Malaysian Medical Association president said while the MMA appreciated the government’s initiative to introduce a new salary scheme for civil servants commencing this December, other issues affecting government doctors remain.
"We hope that the increase in quantum will be appropriate and apt for the responsibilities the doctors undertake,” he said in an MMA statement on Sunday . "This duty has never been a choice but a necessity in providing healthcare to patients and as such, entails many sacrifices by doctors who have to be in hospitals during weekends, public holidays, and also on family occasions. They should be appropriately acknowledged,” he said.
"Hopefully, the conundrum of contract doctors and permanent posts will be settled soon while opportunities for post-graduate training locally need to be enhanced with the young doctors being given the choice to choose the pathway which is suitable for them,” he said.
