And why is the system deficient? - lack of future planning, - poor leadership at every level, - corrupt practices, - lack of accountability to rakyat & tax payers - double standards etc We need competent, honest, fair and just leaders starting at KKM

Then don't cover-up or protect it then

You being one of the deficiencies DGHisham

DG oh DG...you are in the position of power to make things happen...and when is that going to happen? Or, you just want to continue to harp on issues after issues...

The medical fraternity has been saying this. The people already knew this. 'Exposed' is the correct word because most of these open secrets were covered up time after time. So Tan Sri DG, who do you think should take responsibility?

we already know this la DG

DGHisham ..where is his finger pointing to❓ WTF

How about lapdog

DGH, why talk about this now while C19 pandemic has attacked our country for almost 2 years now! Are you telling us the situations are so bad you can't handle them! Don't try to blame others for your own non performances & you should not let yourself being maneuvered by pn gomen!

It also exposed your integrity

DG shows lack of Accountability and Efficiency lately. Guess, more interested in politics. Let the Deputy DG to handle covid19 for now. Rakyat have more confidence at the Deputy now

It exposed how incompetent and corrupt leadership from the Cabinet and health officials at every level was inadequate for COVID, whereas it was barely adequate for normal times. Too late for 10000 Malaysians to admit this, no?

It's out of control now. Dont pretend everything is good coz we heard since early this year..u always set date then u change the date with the same promises.

Y only now the revelation?🤔

Who are you blaming now, the politician who advanced policies, the administrators like you who develop the protocol or the poor public who are clueless.

Who is talking?

It exposed a broken system. Broken by years of corrupt n bad practices. Where have all our tax dollars gone to? Where has all the country's revenue gone to? DG don't talk kok ya. Who you trying to BS?!

NoorAminAhmad Lapdog speaking

DGHisham Rakyat is sick of you already. Do you think ppl will still want to listen to lapdog? Pleaseeee la… find other ppl to represent you la. Don’t want to see your face

Stop your whining and take immediate action to support Malaysians. Don't whine like a 18 year old girl having a bad prom.

Covid19 exposed your incompetencies

Unfortunately it was the lack of leadership. We were on the right track

NoorAminAhmad And DGHisham is one of them

yeap, serious lack of leadership.

Owh, now you're going to tell the truth?

also exposed you

Covid 19 exposed who is a lapdog

COVID-19 exposed the failure of the DG in charge of healthcare system for allowing its spread by half hearted enforcement of sop. Imaging how seriously ordinary folks will abide by the rules if he had made PN politicians pay dearly for breaking sop over & over.

it also exposed the deficiencies of the government’s policies and leadership. Hope Covid19 serves as a lesson to build a better Malaysia for the future generations

DGHisham please have some self pride and dignity

And the system deficiencies exposed incompetence, lack of accountability and integrity.

Could the reported underfunding (4% of GDP, according to a S'pore Straits Times report recently) of the public healthcare system have anything to do with the said 'deficiencies', DGHisham? DrDzul guanenglim tzafrul_aziz, chedetofficial, my_malaysia

It showed how you stayed silent and allowed PRN sabah returnees to not undergo quarantine! Stop talking lah. People are getting sick of looking at your face in the media. Step down!

Covid-19 exposed the LEADERSHIP QUALITY of our Public Health Authorities. Previously all weaknesses remain hidden. This is not about lack of budget or manpower.

How you look yourself in the mirror every morning. 15 months ago 30 cases. Stop being a political stooge.

And also entire government incompetences based on non meritocracy

Oh u think?🤦🏻‍♂️

That was a statement that shld hv been made in May'20. It shouldn't b Aug'21. Multiple MCOs in that time n nothing of any significance was done.

Change the sucking up culture, expose all the ruts, deficiencies and inefficiencies in the public health service sector

Then absorb contract doctors into the permanent system, don’t talk only…la!
