Oops, the Aircon!
The air-conditioning system of our government hospitals must be cursed.
2 weeks ago, it was Tengku Ampuan Rahiman Hospital in Klang then it was the new Pandan Specialist Hospital in JB. You must be wondering, how can our national referral centre be missing out on all this? Have no fear, take a look at our newspaper today and what do you see but this:
"Kuala Lumpur Hospital latest casualty of faulty air-conditioning system"
So you thought finding fungus on the 2 months old Pandan Specialist Hospital walls was the ultimate? Nah... How about flies in GHKL's OT?
"The heat has become intolerable. There were even occasions when there were flies inside the operation theatre,” he claimed, adding that it had increased the risk of contamination, making surgeries riskier than they should be."
Oh ya, the aircon, well, they have been down for up to 6 months.
"Dr Kumararajah said the air-conditioning system at the theatres had been faulty for the past six months."
I'm hoping that these are merely Dr K's claims. The idea that the premier government hospital of our nation is in this state is absolutely unbelievable or rather, something I would rather not believe. Otherwise, it's another case of MALAYSIA BOLEH!!!

You don't want to know what I know about Malaysian hospitals.
