Blueprint to reform healthcare on the table

KUALA LUMPUR: A blueprint to reform the Malaysian healthcare system and a new infectious disease institute are some of the measures under the 12th Malaysia Plan (12MP) as the country emerges from the Covid-19 pandemic.

The plan has several policies targeting specific health needs, such as oral healthcare, mental health, and immunisation, while food safety policies will be reviewed to protect the public against health hazards and fraud in the food supply chain including the preparation, sale and use of food.
