PETALING JAYA: Private hospitals are asked to put profits aside for now and in the name of service, support the Health Ministry in combating the Covid-19 pandemic.
Federation of Malaysian Consumers Association (Fomca) CEO Datuk Dr Paul Selvaraj said in this time of crisis, private hospitals, especially those run by government-linked companies, should give their utmost to assist the government given that public hospitals are called to treat the rising number of Covid-19 patients.
“Put service as priority and put aside profits for now,“ he told theSun today.
Suaram adviser Kua Kia Soong suggested that private hospitals step forward to take some of the burden off the public sector by providing some sort of subsidised charges or no cost at all. They should also help with cases which are not related to the viral pandemic, fill the need for special wards, offer intensive care unit space and equipment such as ventilators and oxygen supply.
“In the best of times, private hospitals reap the benefits of the much touted Malaysian product known as ‘medical tourism’ and attract the best medical talents from the public sector.
“Now that we are in the worst of times, private hospitals don’t seem to be doing too badly either.
“According to the Affin Hwang Capital Research, the coronavirus pandemic is likely to have only a muted impact on private hospital operators as they are required to report such cases to public hospitals and the national infection centre,“ Kua said in a statement today.
Meanwhile, in response to the many questions broached of late, president of the Association of Private Hospitals Malaysia (APHM) Datuk Dr Kuljit Singh said they (private hospitals) have made available 51 ventilators to the Health Ministry.
“We will be accepting non Covid-19 cases from the Health Ministry hospitals too. Discussions on taking on cases are in the final stages,“ he said in a statement on Tuesday.
He also said the APHM and its member hospitals see this as an opportunity for the private hospitals to work with the Health Ministry and the government in facing this national crisis.
“We have the support of all private hospitals in cancelling electives and reducing non urgent consultation while some private hospitals have even started Covid-19 screening for walk-ins and drive-ins,“ he added.

KUALA LUMPUR: Vehicle owners whose road tax or driving licence expires from today can breathe easy as the Transport Ministry has exempted their renewal until the movement control order (MCO) is lifted.
Transport Minister Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong said today the renewal exemption was applicable to driver’s licence, motor vehicle licence or road tax and vocational licences (GDL & PSV).
However, he said although the renewal of road tax is exempted, it is compulsory for the vehicles to have insurance coverage.
Wee said the renewal of expired road tax and driver’s licence will only be required to be done within 30 days after the MCO is declared over or called off.
“Prior to this, motorists were asked to renew their driving licence online. With this special exemption, we advise motorists to carry a copy of their motor insurance policy or e-cover note when they choose to drive during the MCO period. Those with an expired driving licence can still drive as long as the vehicle is covered with valid insurance,” he said.
Wee said the same exemptions are applicable to commercial vehicles and commercial vehicle drivers.
“With this exemption, the need for a health report for those who hold a Goods Driver’s Licence (GDL) and a Puspakom vehicle inspection approval for commercial vehicle owners no longer arises. They only need to ensure the vehicle is covered with motor insurance,” he said.
Wee said between today and March 31, the GDL validity of 2,753 commercial vehicle drivers will expire.
He said his ministry is aware of the setback faced by the public in the renewal of license and road tax during the MCO period and the decision to offer the exemptions were made after dicussions with relevant parties including the General Insurance Association of Malaysia (PIAM) and Takaful Malaysia.
“Most importantly, it is to ensure the supply chain of essential goods especially food for the masses is unaffected throughout the MCO period. I would like to advice drivers and their assistant drivers to be watchful of their health throughout the time they are carrying out their duties in the frontline. Your service is very meaningful to the people and country during these trying times.” he said.
He said those who wish to make enquiries or lodge complaint can do so at, email: aduan@mot.gov.my , or WhatsApp ke 0192907723.
Hotline : 1800-88-7723 (8am-8pm) or contact the National Security Council operations centre 03-88882010

PETALING JAYA: Selangor police went full force tonight in enforcing the restricted movement order on its first full day, by mounting roadblocks and conducting checks on business outlets that continued to operate as usual.
Dozens of police teams were despatched to various areas in the Klang Valley to detect shop operators who had defied the order and to ensure that their businesses were shut down.
Car repair workshops, car wash centres, vape stores and religious gatherings were among those approached by the police teams.
In Petaling Jaya, district police chief ACP Nik Ezanee Mohd Faisal said that about four roadblocks are in place round-the-clock for conducting checks on motorists who remain outdoors.
“We are focusing on educating our communities on the importance of staying indoors,” he said.
In Kuala Lumpur, similar efforts were taken by state police.
A police four-wheel-drive vehicle was seen moving in the city with loudspeakers playing announcements urging the public to observe the restricted movement order.
Elsewhere, food stall operators who defied the order were advised to close down and return home.
Although police have the powers to detain those who defied orders to remain indoors, Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Abdul Hamid Bador said on Tuesday that a softer approach of advising and issuing warnings will be adopted in the early stages of the order’s implementation.

With over 60 million American adults owning a smart speaker, human-to-machine conversation have largely become a part of a daily ritual. Though these exchanges are seemingly simple to the user, the complex technology that backs the interactions is powered by artificial intelligence, machine learning, and speech recognition. These modern machines are only continuing to grow in popularity, and for many Americans, voice recognition technology is becoming as natural as owning a smartphone. The user interfaces that drive the functionality of smart speakers have brought new and improved convenience to modern-day Americans. By the same token, this capability has the potential to alleviate burdens from the operations of our nation’s first responders.
