Malaysian Medical Association president urges stronger enforcement and cultural change as healthcare workers continue to face intimidation and silence within hospital hierarchies
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s (Tambun-PH) efforts to ensure a sufficient supply of doctors in the public health sector may be in vain if Health Minister Dr Zaliha Mustafa (Sekijang-PH) fails to address the apparent widespread bullying culture in the sector.
A total of 253 bullying cases have been reported in a survey of 728 Malaysian doctors who are in the public and private healthcare sector, said the Malaysian Medical Association.
