THE Health Ministry and RCSI & UCD Malaysia Campus (RUMC), formerly known as Penang Medical College, have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to establish a new pathway for family medicine training for doctors in Malaysia.

This will involve the MOH and RUMC working together to accredit suitable centres and trainers to deliver training in family medicine.
