proposal of Dr Steven Chow Kim Weng and seconded by Dr Goh Kay Chee.
2 MATTERS ARISING
2.1 Malaysian Society for Quality in Health – Standards for Medical Clinics
The meeting noted that almost all the PMPASKL Committee members have been signed up
as members of MSQH so that the Association could be well represented in Society. Dr Eng
Seng Chai enquired on the role of MSQH and what sort of influence and power they have over
the medical professional bodies. The house was informed that the MSQH was originally set up
to look into and certify the quality of healthcare in private and public hospitals. The MSQH was
originally set up by three parties namely the Ministry of Health, the Malaysian Medical
Association and the Academy of Family Physicians of Malaysia. MSQH was now proposed
setting up guidelines for clinics. It was highlighted that the role of the MSQH in these
professional matters was fiat accompli and thus it is one of the powers to be reckoned with.
Dr Milton Lum pointed out that the FPMPAM, the PMPASKL, the MSQH and other
organizations are registered societies and accreditation is mostly voluntary. He could not see
how MSQH can do the clinic accreditation and why such legislation was given to one
registered society. He urged members to join MSQH so that the profession will have a
stronger voice and be well represented.
3 ANNUAL REPORT 2010/2011
Dr Ho Shu Nam, Hon Secretary, presented the Annual Report for 2010/2011. The Annual
Report was accepted on the proposal of Dr Steven Chow and seconded by Dr Milton Lum

4 STATEMENT OF ACCOUNTS
