1)In Malaysia, you can become doctor as long as you can pay for the cert and get your degree from dodgy universities.
2)Tongkat universities selects tongkat students.
So overall the standard of doctors in Malaysia are subpar, I wont say all doctors in Malaysia are bad but there are many bad apples in there.
Eventually the root of the problem is policies and how they select the students, some corruptions and under table are involved too.

just compare universities recognized in Singapore and Malaysia

people with mediocre result can just pay a few hundred thousand ringgit and admit as doctors in Malaysia

Also dentistry and pharmacy is in similar situation

Public hospitals in Singapore are actually good, meanwhile if you want better service you got to go private ones in Malaysia
