THE Malaysian Public University Medical Deans Council is concerned and wishes to address a matter of utmost importance in our nation’s healthcare – the training of medical specialists in Malaysia via the master programme and “parallel pathway”.
Our vision is for Malaysia to be self-sufficient in training the specialists needed to meet the demands of our healthcare system not just in terms of numbers but also in the quality of medical expertise. Achieving this goal requires a concerted and collaborative effort to enhance the capabilities of local training providers.
