Hello, I'm new here.

I have a few questions.
1.What do you think about the future of this field (pharmacy) in Malaysia?

2. Are those prospects stated in the thread a fact or just a mere assumption?

3. I heard that there is a certain limit of your income after being a pharmacist for years, let say 6 years, is it true?

I am a SPM leaver and currently applying for JPA scholarship under pharmacy course.

I personally do not think that the government will give the dispensing right to pharmacists in the near future or even until I have retired due to the mentality of Malaysians in regard to this issue.

Thanks for the feedback for my previous post.

Questions:
I understand that the systems in UK and Aus for degree in Pharmacy are different in which one will obtain Bachelor of Pharmacy/Masters in Pharmacy (Mpharm) in UK and Bachelor of Pharmacy (Bpharm) in Aus. And I have checked on the JPA website and it's stated that both BPharm and Mpharm are considered a degree (Ijazah Sarjana Muda) as accredited by our local higher institution.

Thus, I would like to ask which is the preferred choice (Mpharm or Bpharm) and why is it so. Plus, does that mean that if someone is a Mpharm holder, he or she has finished Masters during the degree program, therefore can continue to PhD right away if he or she wishes to continue her postgraduate studies?

Honestly, I know little about the study life in Universities especially in Pharmacy as I am an SPM leaver. Please do correct me if I am wrong.

confused JPA scholar.

May I know (roughly), how much is the pay for fresh Pharmacy graduates in Government hospitals?

I went to the government polyclinic and a private hospital few days ago, and I found out that there is a Pharmacy section in both places.

So, I was wondering if the separation of prescribing and dispensing rights is practised, or it's just another way to ensure efficiency in delivering services. Any clue?
