JOHOR BARU: There is nothing wrong with the uniform worn by nurses in Malaysia, says Health Minister Dr Zaliha Mustafa.
"There are ethics nurses adhere to when it comes to their uniforms and it is clear to me that there is no problem," she said.
"We have just tabled the Health White Paper and should be focusing on what is important, which is providing the best health services to the people. For now, I do not see the uniform as an issue," she said here on Sunday . She had been asked to comment on the remarks on the attire of nurses made by Kuantan MP Wan Razali Wan Nor.While debating the White Paper of Public Health Reforms in the Dewan Rakyat recently, Wan Razali said the government should consider changing the uniforms for nurses as they are too tight and not syariah-compliant."Are we still following the Western dress code? Can it be changed to allow some 'relaxation' of the nurses' uniform?" he told the Dewan Rakyat.
