Doctors on strike Modified25 Jul 2021, 10:33 pm A Key Highlights Doctors on strike Government contract doctors will go on a one-day strike today amid intimidation by those in charge at public hospitals. Putrajaya made some last-minute concessions by promising up to four years of contract extension but the doctors see it as a ploy to stop the strike. They want permanent placements, not more contract extensions. Under the current system, contract doctors face joblessness after the end of their five-year training because the government does not have the budgetary means to offer them permanent positions. Cognisant of the Covid-19 pandemic, protest organisers have asked participants to ensure that permanent doctors will cover their shift during the strike while those in critical services are to return to their posts if needed.
