‘Make selection process for permanent posts transparent’

KUALA LUMPUR: It is not just contract pharmacists who want more transparency on selection for permanent posts but also doctors and dentists.

The Malaysian Medics International – a loose movement made up of about 4,000 Malaysian doctors and medical students worldwide – said that when the government started offering jobs for medical, dental, and pharmacy graduates on a contract basis, there were fears that resentment will arise if the absorption of contract officers into permanent employment was not conducted properly.
