Govt will spend RM1.2bil to extend terms of contract doctors


KUALA LUMPUR: Vocal demands for the Prime Minister to answer questions made it difficult for Datuk Seri Tengku Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz to answer questions about the National Recovery Plan (NRP) at the Dewan Rakyat on Monday (July 26).

The Finance Minister eventually managed to explain measures taken to alleviate the situation faced by contract doctors, reiterating that those affected will have their contracts extended by another two years.
