Deputy Speaker and Basilan lone district Rep. Mujiv Hataman on Monday frowned over the Commission on Higher Education’s failure to disburse a single centavo from its P250-million subsidy intended for medical students in state universities and colleges.
“Kaya mahirap lunukin ang katotohanan na may pondo para pag-aralin ang mga gustong mag-doktor pero walang naging iskolar noong 2018 ,” he said, referring to the Student Financial Assistance Program and Tuition Subsidy for Medical Students. In 2011, the then-ARMM average of the doctor-to-patient ratio was 1:45,224, with Basilan having a 1:58,664 rate, according to figures from the Mindanao Development Authority and the Department of Health .
The former ARMM governor said CHED should study why there were no medical scholars in 2018 when many young Moros wanted to be doctors.
