Each of us received an email to say that the launching of the Brunei Medical Association has been postponed to August. We just hope that this association will represent us properly and will be able to protect interests of doctors. According to it’s constitution, no director will be able to be a member of the committee and no non-locals are able to vote during the elections.
That is a good start. At least this is one major medical body that the admin in Jalan Menteri Besar cannot directly control. We just hope more doctors will see it this, and the Brunei Medical Association as a whole, in a positive way. We certainly did not a few months ago until the interim committee convinced some of us otherwise.
