Professor Dr. Azad Hassan Bin Abdul Razack

UM Faculty of Medicine deputy dean Prof Dr Azad Hassan admitted that it faced the problem of losing its top medical graduates to Singapore. "I don t know how the Singaporeans know about our top students and contact them directly. For the past two or three years, we get 80 to 100 housemen a year. With the Health Ministry s assistance, we re now able to allow the top 20 or 30 to work in UMMC (University Malaya Medical Centre) and continue with their Masters programme. Hopefully with that, we can keep them locally", he said.

Professor Dr. Azad Hassan Bin Abdul Razack is a member of Specialty Subcommittee in the field of Urology, representing Academy of Medicine of Malaysia, AMM.
