Lol hypermax, non proper paragraphing doesnt equate non comprehensible statement. Oh ya, let the readesr be the judge. Im not being emo at all. Cos if i am, i wouldnt even be able to reason or think anymore. I deal with the most unreasonable doc before n i could keep my cool all the time.Dubbing you bad apple becos you really made urself looked like one.In fact you are again pointing fingers back at urself becos u r beating around the bush n picking on the little trivial things to say.  N then when I manage to state my point , there u go pointing fingers at others. Oh ya, perhaps u dun realize how u brag so much about urself (not saying doctors here but generally just you) n belittling others in this forum. Read the forum from the start to the end. U dun need me to tell you how do you(just like how u quote anothers as Newbies)? Again mr hypermax, dun u realize it is you who are actually launching personal attacks the whole time. Im merely stating facts. I thought u said u wanted facts? It was you who exaggerated on lots of issues until i stood up n start telling ppl about the truth. If you feel like its wrong, tell me which one. Then again, dun talk about the personal attack thingy or rotten apple, that is merely personal view. What i want to know is the system in the hospital that u mentioned.

Bro, dun eat your words becos you obviously meant doctors are more superior in terms of knowledge thus can be sole prescriber n that we the pharmacists cant be sole dispenser. U dun need me to point what which post do u? cos im far too lazy to dig on ur past posts again

At least its fine with others here. So i think its ok with no paragraphing or watsoever. My gosh evidence is in this post. U wan me to go reading back the 18 pages of posts again? I hav far better things to do doc. Ok, if you dislike ppl stating their views i will not bother. This is what im good at actually when dealing with docs like u. Peace n i hope that  you will hold ur peace too or u will again make urself look bad. Good luck ya

Ouch, how can u be so suspicious the whole time? Only ppl with intentions will grow suspicious easily.

Nah, im done. its ok. Let him be. Thanks for reading anyway.

Yeah. So for them, it still boils down to money. Y would they wan to give u a pinch of their wealth (someone's perception)? Then again, with dispensing seperation, it does not mean that pharmacists will prosper. This is based on a study conducted in Korea ( in case someone pushes for evidence again).

Quite a number of retail pharmacists do not want the seperation to be implemented for fear that their business will be affected (imagine you can sell your drugs only in the presence of prescriptions vis-a-vis our current system)

So for our suspicious fren, all i wan to get across to you is this: Recognition of role! Nothing more nothing less.

yeah....i finally learned. Cos i am willing to learn. Perhaps u shud learn to do the same too

Perhaps i cant teach a big headed person to learn something new. That someone who always pushes for evidence where most of his points are based on his on 'facts of life'. When challenged, he cant stop the bitter bickering but to start telling people to wear glasses, calling ppl names i.e newbies etc.

Get a life n grow up. Im not interested in this personal feud. At the end of the day, i still hav to say that i cant get any points across a stubborn mind. Sarcasm wont harm me. Oh ya, i do realize paragraphing makes things quite neat and comprehensible. At least it makes ppl flared up (so it means somebody got my point).    

What do you mean by centralized health care system? Like those in UK or Aust or USA?

9,440 doctors vs 3,321 pharmacists in the private practice, a ratio of 2.84. Plenty of pharmacist to take care of prescription.
Local docs to face foreign challenge
By FOONG PEK YEE

KUALA LUMPUR: Local medical professionals have to compete with their foreign counterparts when the services sector under the Asean Free Trade Area (Afta) is opened up by end of the year.

Health Minister Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai said at least 70% of the equity will be opened to foreign participation by the period.

This would lead to an increase of foreign professionals, particularly from disciplines which were in demand, those not available locally or facing a shortage, he said.

“The locals will have a choice of seeking treatment locally instead of having to go overseas.

“This is also a boost for medical tourism as foreigners will be attracted by good services and affordable rates in Malaysa,” Liow said in an interview.

Liow however said that the foreign professionals must be registered with the Malaysian Medical Council (MMC).

Malaysia has 23,738 doctors, 3,165 dentists and 4,571 pharmacists. They include 9,440 doctors, 1,625 dentists and 3,321 pharmacists in the private practice who may be directly affected by the move.

Admitting that local professionals were initially quite hesitant in accepting the move, Liow said his ministry, via several briefings with them, managed to convince them that the move was inevitable and that they (local professionals) should be ready and able to compete with their foreign counterparts.

“Like many other countries in the world, Malaysia is gearing up to make medical tourism more attractive to foreigners.

“There are also a lot of requests from foreigners, many whom are Japanese and Koreans and residing in Malaysia, for treatment by doctors or specialists from their country,” Liow said.
