MOH, PSD discussing over decision to stop sponsorship of students in medical fields

: Discussion is in progress between the Health Ministry and the Public Service Department regarding the department’s decision to stop sponsoring students in medicine, dentistry and pharmacy.

“Our worry is that the move may discourage students from pursuing studies,” she told reporters after launching the Global Adults Tobacco Survey here today. Health services are essential, therefore professions such as doctors and other positions in the medical scheme are necessary in the country, she said.

Meanwhile, on the GATS, Dr Zaliha said it is a household survey conducted nationwide by the Ministry of Health in collaboration with the World Health Organisation and the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention .
