Cuba-educated doctor’s qualifications not recognised in Malaysia


Celebrating love: Dr Ramesh and Dr Gomez at their wedding reception with Hernandez (right), her husband Jose Luis Camero (left) and their daughter Lia in Shah Alam.

PETALING JAYA: Dr Sasha Joanne Gomez, who was in a pioneer batch of locals offered scholarships to pursue medicine in Cuba in 2007, will have no role to heal the sick in Malaysia.

The Caribbean nation has made many efforts to get its medical qualifications recognised here, but things have remained stagnant despite Public Service Department officials having visited Havana in 2006 to evaluate four medical universities.
