KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Seri Dr Dzulkefly Ahmad claims that development plans had been carried out during his tenure as health minister to ensure the safety of the Hospital Sultanah Aminah buildings, including approving the rewiring of the hospital complex.
He was asked about the measures taken by the ministry during his tenure to prevent such an incident from recurring. Dr Dzulkefly who became the Health Minister after the general election in 2018 until the fall of the Pakatan Harapan government on March 1, said that during his tenure, the rewiring for the whole hospital complex was approved and the ministry had plans to build a second hospital for Johor Baru and the area had been identified.
“If l could recall correctly, there was no dispute about wanting to declassify the report. The delay was because of the decision of the post-Cabinet to do a briefing to the families' victims first before presenting it to the public, ” he said. “I am extremely saddened by this event and I thank the Almighty that no lives were lost in this recent incident, ” he said, referring to the fire on Sunday.
