Resetting Malaysia for better mental health


ABOUT a month ago I read the sad news of a doctor in Sabah who committed suicide. I also know of an intern from my university who was said to have committed suicide while working as a houseman in a Penang hospital about two years ago.

Both these tragic cases were allegedly connected to bullying by seniors in their workplaces.
