A New Journey Begin: Pathology Department

-
I've been transferred to Pathology Department HQE upon my request. The reason.. I love Microbiology then why not give a shot into Pathology Department, from here I hope that I can find my way through to the field that I like.

Life is a bit different now. Living in apartment, stuck in traffic jam everyday when going to work and when getting back home from work. I am still in adjustment period. Otherwise, work now 8am-5pm. Not like in district hospital... working like almost 24 hours, more than that.

Every workplace has their own stress. In Sipitang, I am stress that I am working like every hours every day. Here in my new place, I am stress with the workload, the work field that is so different from what I have been trained before. No more clinical, now I am working behind the scene.

Sometime, I still remember Sipitang.. I will never forget that place, nothing much to complain about that hospital. I believe (now) what is the meaning of accredited hospital. Working there put myself in less danger compare to my new place now. In my new place, I am exposed to chemical hazard, infectious hazard, playing with sharp knife that can cause me having work related injury.. I hope I won't get any of this. Sigh, running away from Sipitang thinking that air in Sipitang is contaminated with industrial pollution, put myself in a place where I inhaled carcinogenic chemical everyday. What an irony.


Will begin new journey.....

Becoming a medical officer in Malaysia: Are you still a real doctor?

-
To recap from my previous post, a person must completed 5-6 years study in medical school, pass their professional exam, enter 2 years house officer training program, pass their exam and completed their logbooks, then a person can now be called a fully registered Medical Officer / Medical Doctor. A Journey of a Junior Medical Officer After 7 or 8 years experience, a house officer will be given a full registration under Malaysian Medical Council. This registration process is a lengthy process which takes up months before it will be completed. Most doctors will apply for full registration 4 months before they finish their house officer training program. The registration will be processed only if all the criteria has been fulfilled by the house officer which includes log book, review by a board of specialist, no disciplinary action recorded, and other paper work stuff that need to be settled. A full registration means that the doctor now can practice as a doctor independently. They ca

What Went Wrong With Malaysia Vaccination Program?

-
Even though it was obvious but no one dare to admit that Malaysia's vaccination program has so many flaws that make it look like a joke. Every where in the world, COVID-19 was still causing outbreak from time to time but they were already planning an exit strategy. Here in Malaysia, we are still in 2020 phase. We are still in the middle of the pandemic, and not the end of it. Not only Malaysia, but almost all South East Asian country excluding Singapore were doing work at a speed of snail. Slow, unsteady and full of bureaucracy.  The talk of vaccinating the whole world started since last year. Some countries started to vaccinate their citizen as early as October 2020. By the end of 2020, vaccine is the only way out of the pandemic.  In Malaysia, the talk of bringing in the vaccine into this county, sound like a mega plan bigger than sending our citizen to Mars. It was hype! We were so hopeful. For the first time, we praised our politician who act like they were in charge and they w
