PETALING JAYA: A move to let private hospitals train their own specialists could benefit hundreds of medical officers who are still waiting for contracts or permanent jobs, says the Association of Private Hospitals Malaysia (APHM).

Its president Datuk Dr Kuljit Singh said in a statement on Friday (Dec 3) that the association had a discussion with the Health Ministry in a recent joint workshop on the proposal of private hospitals training their own specialists.
