Four months after allegedly showing one of his bosses a naked picture of a coworker, a Harris County Precinct 3 constable deputy has been suspended and is the subject of a felony criminal investigation.

PETALING JAYA: It is high time for Malaysia to focus on increasing the number of medical specialists to meet national needs through a unified and structured competency-based training programme, says the Academy of Medicine of Malaysia .

"Simultaneously, the parallel pathway programme offers an alternative route to be a medical specialist, contributing to the expansion of our specialist workforce. In 2006, the ministry proposed that AMM be entrusted to initiate and maintain NSR under the purview of the National Credentialing Committee, chaired by the president of the Malaysian Medical Council , who was also the Health director-general.“The NSR is, in fact, an exercise in self-regulation by the medical profession, having the interest and safety of the public at heart.

“While we must applaud the joint efforts of Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr Dzulkefly Ahmad and Higher Education Minister Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abdul Kadir to address issues related to specialist training, the current impasse affecting some specialists who were denied their registration into NSR must be resolved forthwith. This matter firmly falls solely within the ambit of MMC, and we await their decision,” said AMM.
