So what's your point?

Meaning less scope or opportunities for pharmacists since doctors are allowed to dispense.

YOU WROTE:

A doctor will diagnose(a disease) and prescribe medicine for patients. A pharmacist dispenses medicine to patients.

diagnose is the doctor telling you what illness you have such as cough and fever.

prescribing is the part where the doctor write something like antibiotic after diagnosed your condition so that the nurse or what-so-ever know what medicine to pack for you.

dispense is the part where you get your medication as prescribed by doctor.

in case you are wondering why pharmacist is not involved or maybe i missed out, doctors in malaysia get to sell medicine. Therefore they are dispensing and not pharmacist.
