Just like doctors diagnose disease by taking a thorough history and understanding the details, leaders must do the same with issues. Having been in both positions, Tun Dr. Mahathir shares his philosophy of assessing problems in politics much like in medicine - determining the root cause, exploring all angles, and then prescribing the right remedy. 💊 In his exclusive interview with Medical Channel Asia, we picked his brains on difficult topics including medical tourism, the cost of healthcare, the exodus of medical professionals in Malaysia, and more. 🏥 *For healthcare professionals only* Watch the full video at https://lnkd.in/gdXbm2K8 #medicalchannelasia #mca #tunmahathir #hcp #healthcareprofessionals

In the Malaysian healthcare system, questioning the direction and purpose of services provided by practitioners is more complicated than it appears.

In science, the questions we ask can be more important than the answers we obtain and often pave the way for the answers we need. #healthcare #evidencebasedmedicine #Malaysia #practices #progress
