- drctk666 : Think tank makes the law to violate others existing laws means there are outlaw and know the law well.
- drctk666 : Exterminate GP is the ultimate motive. In bolehland we used MA to treat the rakyat and to slowly kill them.
- drctk666 : poordoc, Dato liow is thinking to reducing the duration of service to increase the mortality rate lah. Ass to treat donkeys.
- poor doctor : Dato Liow is considering REDUCE the complusory 5 years service to 4 years in order to solve the doctor shortage problem. What a 'brilliant' idea!!!!!!!!! «link»

- huajern : about time. but lets see how strictly it is implemented.
- poor doctor : «link» This could be bad news for those JPA scholars. JPA had just annouced new policy that ALL JPA scholars must return to Malaysia once completed their study. They will not entertain any request to extend their stay not even for specialist course or whatever other excuses.

- poor doctor : Haha, Murugiah want to have 'revenge' on doctors. More controversies ahead.
- poor doctor : «link»
- drctk666 : Palmdoc, I think senator Murugiah's idea will only provoke more hatre to those newly grads. Live longer in Hell is the word.
- drctk666 : 1Malaysia clinic is a gov. project and yet the KKM penalised GP to jail. Is this acceptable? How do u docs out there think of this?
- drctk666 : 1Malaysia clinics is equivalent to cancer to GP. Shall be banned and not rename. Violating medical act or any other acts are all an OFFENCE and shall be summoned. Give gov. one then!
- drctk666 : Palmdoc, your jan photoblog seems to be Henoch Schonlein Purpura. The patient will live.
