PETALING JAYA: The Malaysian Medical Association (MMA) is calling for greater transparency in the hiring of permanent doctors. Making the selection process of contract medical officers for permanent posts transparent and clear, he said, would allow house officers to carve their career path and strive to achieve excellence. He said the issue of contract doctors had been an ongoing problem for the last five years. “As we continue to fight for better working conditions and a better future for contract officers, we might suffer and be hurt in our journey. In the interim, contract officers can still continue their postgraduate education.
