PUTRAJAYA: The Health Ministry will enhance 1Malaysia Clinics by posting doctors and a proper drug dispensing unit there as a way to address the long waiting time for patients in government health faci­lities, said its minister Dr Dzulkefly Ahmad.

“One way (of addressing long waiting time) is to transform 1Malaysia Clinics into ‘rakyat clinics’,” he told a press conference after his first monthly meeting with ministry staff yesterday.
