Govt may extend compulsory public service for doctors
PUTRAJAYA: The Government proposes to extend the compulsory public service for doctors to five or 10 years from the current three to overcome the annual shortage of doctors in its hospitals, Deputy Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Senator Datuk T. Murugiah said Wednesday.
Last year alone, the country faced a shortage of 5,000 doctors, he added.
“Every year, we face a shortage of doctors because they serve with the Government for only five years -- two years on housemanship and three years on compulsory service.
“This system has been in use since 1971 and, as such, we should have a new mechanism to resolve the problem,” he told reporters after a working visit to the Public Service Commission (PSC), here.
Murugiah said the Government’s adoption of the proposal would mean that the doctors would be able to garner more experience before they moved on to the private sector or set up their own practice.
“Doctors should not only think about profit. They also have to think about the country’s interests -- your contribution to the country,” he said.
Murugiah said similar measures could also be applied in other disciplines where there was a shortage of personnel such as dentists and pharmacists.
However, he said, this was up to the Health Ministry, Economic Planning Unit (EPU) and the Public Service Department (PSD) to discuss and decide.
He also said that last year, the Government appointed 50,756 civil servants, including candidates for paramedical training, which exceeded the target of 50,000 appointments set by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak.
A total of 7,785,262 applications were received and 358,366 people were called for interview but only 199,660 turned up for the interviews, he said. -- Bernama

Two arson bids in Taiping, black paint hurled at Malacca church (Update 3)
By LOURDES CHARLES, IZATUN SHARI, RASLAN BAHAROM and MARTIN CAVARLHO
TAIPING: Two cases of attempted arson were reported here involving a church and a school. And black paint was splashed on the outer wall of a Malacca church.
The locations affected on Sunday were the All Saints' Church at Jalan Taming Sari and SMK Convent along Jalan Convent. In Malacca, it was the Malacca Baptist Church in Durian Daun.
The staircase leading to the Taiping church was slightly burned while the Molotov cocktail thrown into the school failed to explode.
Perak CPO Deputy Comm Datuk Zulkifli Abdullah said the bottle, however, shattered the window of the guard post located at the compound, which also houses a church.
He added police have beefed up security at places of worship in the state and urged the people to remain calm.
“We are investigating the matter and hope the public do not send out SMSes that can cause unnecessary tension and fear,” he added when contacted.
“This is the work of opportunists and not by extremist groups.”
Meanwhile, the All Saints' Church pastor Rev Joshua Ong told reporters that he saw the black patches when he was opening the premise at 7am in preparation for its service an hour later on Sunday.
Home Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein, meanwhile said the situation was under control.
“It is under control and not as exaggerated by the foreign media, SMSes and the Internet,” he told reporters after Umno’s Juara Rakyat programme in Hulu Selangor.
He said the incidents were not coordinated and were isolated.
He added he would study the use of all existing laws and the Internal Security Act would only be used as a last resort.
In Malacca, police said that surveillance of houses of worship would be stepped up.
Meanwhile, Deputy Inspector General of Police Tan Sri Ismail Omar said the two attempted arson attacks at church and school in Taiping and the vandalism at the Durian Daun church in Malacca are being investigated thoroughly.
“I assure the public that we have increased our presence at churches and mosques as well as other places of worship and will do everything within our means to bring to book those responsible.
“These are works of opportunists and we hope the public will not resort to any unhealthy measures as it will make matters worse,’’ he said.
Ismail also appealed to the public to stop sending out SMSes that could confuse the people and warned that stern action would be taken against anyone sending out such unfounded messages.
Report ends ... :)

The only (potentially) correct use of ISA :) However let us see if it will come into force .. :K
KUALA LUMPUR: Home Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein said the Government would not hesitate to use any means necessary, including the Internal Security Act, on anyone who threatens the security of the country.
He also ensured the safety of everyone in Malaysia, including the minorities.
Hishammuddin also said that the Inspector-General of Police has confirmed that three churches had come under arson attack.
“We have also received a report that a church has been threatened. The police will monitor all churches in the country,” he said.
Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Musa Hassan earlier said police were investigating three cases of arson at churches in the Klang Valley early Friday morning.
The three churches were the Metro Tabernacle Church in Desa Melawati, the Assumption Church in Jalan Templer, Petaling Jaya, and the Life Chapel Church in Section 17, also in Petaling Jaya.
"Police personnel would also patrol churches throughout the country, especially in the Klang Valley, to prevent any untoward incidents," he added on Friday.
Police officers collecting evidence at the Assumption Church in PJ on Friday.
At 12.30am Friday, the Metro Tabernacle Church was damaged after a group of youths threw flammable materials into the ground floor of the church located in a shoplot.
No one was injured in the incident as the church was empty at that time.
It was believed the incident happened after a group of youths on motorcycles rode up to the church, smashed the glass panels on the ground floor of the three-storey building and later threw some materials into the building that started a fire.
Church lay leader Peter Yeow, 62, said witnesses were not near enough to get a closer look at the youths who sped away after the act.
The witnesses then called the police as well as the Fire and Rescue Department, which arrived within minutes and doused the fire.
City CID chief SAC II Datuk Ku Chin Wah confirmed the incident.
It is believed that a Molotov cocktail was thrown into the church.
SAC Ku said the police were investigating the incident from all angles.
Kuala Lumpur police Chief Datuk Mohamad Sabtu Osman told The Associated Press that a witness saw four people on two motorcycles breaking the glass front of the church and throwing an incendiary object inside before fleeing.
He said police found a wrench, an empty gasoline can and two scorched motorcycle helmets at the scene. The church occupies a corner plot in a row of shops in Desa Melawati, a suburb of Kuala Lumpur.
"We are still investigating," he said. He also urged Muslims not to participate in the planned protests, AP reported.
Government n PM ... for your actions :) thanks
