I REFER to the report on Dr Lu Yeow Yuen whose application to be registered on the National Specialist Register was rejected by the Malaysian Medical Council (MMC), He teaches neurosurgeons, but can’t be one in Malaysia.

While recognising MMC’s autonomy and its discretion in the decision-making process, I feel it should at least have an established mechanism to evaluate the competency of returning Malaysia n doctors trained abroad.

Firstly, inconsistencies and confusing information on the website caused significant confusion and made the process more complex. This led me to my next observation of the apparent lack of interest in recognising internationally recognised credentials. As a progressive society, it is imperative that our healthcare system acknowledges and values qualifications obtained from reputable institutions worldwide.

The application procedure also lacked a few key components, such as the requirement to submit case logs , face-to face interview with the council, and consultation of my application with specialists in the relevant fields.
