Let doctors decide if they need HLP to specialise, says MMA


PETALING JAYA: The government should let Medical Officers (MO) decide if they wish to apply for the Hadiah Latihan Persekutuan (HLP) scholarship to specialise through the parallel pathway, says the Malaysian Medical Association (MMA).

MMA president Dr Azizan Abdul Aziz said under the present system, all MO in public healthcare, are required to apply for the HLP government scholarship regardless of the pathway they choose when it comes to specialise.
