Papar Hospital upgrades delayed due to labour, building material shortage, says Dr Zaliha


PAPAR: The shortage of manpower and construction materials, in addition to the outbreak of Covid-19, contributed to the delay in the completion of upgrading works at Papar Hospital, says Dr Zaliha Mustafa.

The Health Minister said the upgrading process, which began in May 2017, is now 62% complete and is expected to be ready by the end of this year and commence operations in March next year.
