Healthcare Today with Manvir Victor – Ep2: MMA president on the importance of GP clinics 

DR Koh Kar Chai was the president of the Malaysian Medical Association (MMA) at the time of this recording. He shares how the organisation continues to help ensure a majority of Malaysians have access to healthcare close to their homes nearly 95% of the time.  

As an organisation that was set up merely a year after our independence, the MMA has seen the nation cope with almost everything in its time.

Dr Koh shares the latest changes and how the organisation continues to evolve and ensure its relevance in today's digital age. 

The challenges of Covid-19 and the government's response that required on-ground deployment of the vaccines are also covered. Healthcare Today with Manvir Victor continues to explore the main stakeholders in Malaysia's healthcare system. 

Comments and suggestions are welcome on Twitter @manvirvictor as we continue to explore how healthcare and wellness can chart a country’s journey toward being a developed nation. – The Vibes, November 16, 2022
