Rethinking Malaysia’s public healthcare ecosystem


AS a Malaysian, I have long appreciated the affordability and accessibility of our public healthcare system; the Government Health Clinics charging only RM1 for treatment is a testament to Malaysia’s commitment to ensuring that basic healthcare is within reach for all citizens.

When an outpatient sees a doctor, the person only needs to pay RM1, while a fee of RM5 is charged if he or she goes to a specialist doctor, and medicine is given free.
