Health D-G: Medical experts from China arriving here to share notes, possibly collaborate

He also said Malaysia is looking at the possibility of research collaboration with the Chinese team, among others to isolate the coronavirus and determine whether different strains of it has been behind the country’s relative success. “They are not here to run our services. We will engage in discussions with them how best we can improve our services in the hospitals, for example, how can we increase efficiency,” said Dr Noor Hisham referring to China’s capability in building a hospital in 10 days.

“We would like to listen to them and learn from them and perhaps they can learn from us also. So sharing from both side is important,” he said.“Because this is a new virus, no one can identify the virus yet,” he said, referring to a similar success on identifying the Zika virus.
