Be thankful to the press for highlighting the issue


I REFER to the news reports on senior doctors bullying housemen and male doctors sexually harassing female trainee doctors, “Heartless docs, sickening acts” (Sunday Star, July 29).

It has since been reported that the Health Minister has directed thorough probes be carried out on all known cases to ensure fairness and justice, “Ministry to probe sex abuse claims by housemen against dept head” (The Star, July 30).
