WELCOME MESSAGE
Natural disasters have been a fact of life and have afflicted mankind in all parts of the world.
Yet the terrible toll caused by these disasters is untoward and its impact is felt thereafter
for many years to come. Many countries have been free of severe natural disasters and
have therefore not been adequately prepared to face the severe consequences therein.
Malaysia has also fallen into this trap and has been ill prepared to face certain disasters
in magnanimous proportions.
Malaysia has had its fair share of disasters over the years. However, the types of disasters,
its scale and impact have increased over a period of time. 2014 in particular was a difficult
year for Malaysia. We had to deal with a number of high-impact, large-scaled disasters,
both natural and man-made disasters that have caused much sufferings to its people.
Malaysia is also working with other countries to share information and expertise on disaster
management. We are actively participating in international and national collaboration
looking into pooling of resources to effectively handle disasters. Public / private joint
efforts in handling such situations is conducted including nationwide donation drives,
sharing of information, logistic and resources.There has also been multiple efforts to
enhance inter-sectoral collaboration within government agencies such as the Ministry of
Health, National Safety Council, rescue services etc.
It has been said that “No battle plan survives first contact with the enemy”. Therefore we
are in the process of constant evolution in preparing to face disasters whether in the local
or international scene. Importantly we all need to work together towards the common goal
of reducing risks associated with disasters.
I wish you a successful conference ahead and look forward to more innovation in this
area for the future.
Thank you.
Yang Berhormat Datuk Seri Dr S Subramaniam

WELCOME MESSAGE
The theme for this 11th Scientific Meeting of the Ministry of Health and the Academy
of Medicine is “Major Incident & Disaster Management: Bridging the Gap”. As we are
all aware, disasters may be either natural or man-made. Natural disasters include
earthquakes, flood, tsunamis and volcanic activity and even disease epidemics. Man-
made disasters include events that are caused by human such as industrial accidents,
famine and transport accidents.
Malaysia has not been spared of such maladies as seen in the airlines disasters in 2014
where an aircraft (MH 370) went missing with 227 passengers and 12 crew members
whilst another, MH17 crashed claiming the lives of 283 passengers and 15 crew members.
In the same year, we also faced a massive flood in the country which affected more
than 200,000 people and resulted in 21 fatalities. The recent earthquake in Sabah, the
strongest since 1976 caused massive damage to roads, properties and claimed 18 lives.
A United Nations Resolution adopted unanimously on September 10, 2012, defines
human security as “the right of people to live in freedom and dignity, free from poverty and
despair”. Human security, by this definition is threatened by the occurrences of natural
disasters which pose a threat to human survival, damages the economy and social
foundations of people’s wellbeing as well as traumatize survivors and next of kin of the
victims. Therefore Disaster Risk Reduction is essential in order to ensure human security.
At the ministry level, MOH has developed various SOP’s such as on floods, haze etc
which have been developed by teams of experts. And yet, every incident teaches us
what can be improved in the future. For example, even though we have detailed SOPs
on flood management; as flood occurs on yearly basis in Malaysia, the recent major flood
involving many states in Malaysia faced at the end of 2014 was one of the worst disasters
faced by our Ministry. Many MOH facilities were badly damaged and many of our staff
were severely affected.
I would also like to take this opportunity to recognize and show our gratitude for the hard
work of our MOH staff in dealing with the 2014 flood. Many staff whom were personally
badly affected by the flood continued to provide services during the crisis, showing their
loyalty and commitment to their duties. They have shown exemplary work ethics, highest
levels of dedication to their work commitment and they have indeed live up to the MOH’s
Corporate Culture: Caring, Professionalism and Team Work.
As a way forward, MOH is now embarking on ways to reduce the gaps identified and be
more prepared to face disasters in the future. In short, lessons learned will strengthen
our disaster preparedness in the future and makes us ready in facing the new challenges
ahead of us.

WELCOME MESSAGE
It gives me enormous pleasure to write this message for the 11th Ministry of Health-
Academy of Medicine of Malaysia Scientific Meeting. This meeting also incorporates the
18th National Institutes of Health Scientific and Ethics Seminar. The Academy of Medicine
of Malaysia has been organising this biennial event in collaboration with the Ministry of
Health, Malaysia since 1995.
This meeting has served us as a platform to discuss on health issues that are current
and relevant for the medical profession. This year’s theme “Major Incident & Disaster
Management: Bridging -the Gap” is topical and appropriate especially after our recent
experience with the catastrophic floods in Kelantan. It is hoped that this forum will be a
stimulus for the establishment of efficient preparedness plan to manage major incidents
and disasters.
I wish everyone a fruitful and enjoyable scientific meeting.

WELCOME MESSAGE
It is my greatest pleasure to welcome all the participants to the MOH-AMM Scientific

Meeting 2015. This event is a key platform for researchers and health care providers
from the Ministry of Health and Academy of Medicine Malaysia to share and display their
efforts, especially in the areas of disaster management. The MOH-AMM conference is
also held in conjunction with the 18th NIH Scientific and Annual National Ethics Seminar.
The organising committee has had a very challenging time putting together a wide range
of disaster related topics for this event in order to provide variety for the participants.
This event aims to disseminate research information and facilitate interaction among
researchers and health care providers and other stake holders. It is my hope that this
event will achieve its objectives and strengthen knowledge and experience sharing and
collaboration in the field of disaster management among institutes within the NIH as well
as the rest of Ministry of Health and other agencies.
I would like to congratulate the organising committee for their commendable efforts in
making this event a success. To all participants have a productive scientific meeting and
may this event inspire more relevant and important research.
Thank you.

Deputy Director-General of Health Malaysia (Research & Technical Support)

WELCOME MESSAGE
We have great pleasure in welcoming all delegates to this

11th MOHAMM Scientific Meeting incorporating the 18th NIH
Scientific and National Ethics Seminar.
The theme of this meeting is “Major Incident and Disaster

Management, Bridging the Gap”. This is relevant because of the
earth quakes and landslides in Sabah and recurrent floods in parts
of Peninsula Malaysia. Natural calamities beyond our control and disasters arising from unforeseen human
errors and disruptions in the environment displace large numbers of people leading to injuries or infectious
diseases threatening their health and livelihood. Medical healthcare providers, various rescue and support
services should be ever vigilant and prepared to meet such disasters and crises events.
The National Ethics Seminar will challenge healthcare professionals with ethics in their practice, monitor
healthcare performance with disciplines to guide practice patterns. For the Tunku Abdul Rahman Lecture we
are very fortunate to have the Olympian Tan Sri Dato’ Dr M Jegathesan whose sprint records in the Asian
Games remain unbroken for almost 50 years to tell us about fairness and the ethics of keeping sports clean.
The panel of expert speakers from the public, private and academic institutions will present to you a wealth
of knowledge, researches and experiences in the various fields and disciplines. They will update and guide
you. What better opportunities are there for you to learn, interact and network with them.
This meeting will be enlightening, a great learning experience and rewarding. We thank the panel of experts,
the organising and scientific committees as well as the Secretariat for their untiring efforts and contributions
to make this conference such a grand success.

TUNKU ABDUL RAHMAN LECTURE
Citation on Tan Sri Dato’ Dr Mani Jegathesan by Professor Victor Lim
Tan Sri Dato’ Dr M Jegathesan is a household name in Malaysia. Jega, as he is more
fondly known, was born in the royal town of Kuala Kangsar in 1943. His family moved
to Kuala Lumpur and he grew up in the 100 Quarters neighbourhood of Brickfields. He
received his primary education at the Batu Road School and then attended the Victoria
Institution for a year in 1955 before he moved on to Singapore to continue his secondary
schooling at the Anglo-Chinese School. He was a bright student and was selected to read
medicine at the University of Singapore where he graduated with MB BS in 1967.
Jega is known for his achievements in two areas. The first is in athletics and the second in medicine the
combination of which earned him the accolade of the Flying Doctor.
Jega is probably the greatest athlete Malaysia had ever produced. Like his father and two elder brothers who
were all national champions in the quarter-mile, Jega was a runner par excellence. In 1966 he became the
fastest man in Asia when at the Asian Games in Bangkok he won the gold medals in the 100 m, the 200 m
and the 4 X 100 m relay. Jega also competed in 3 Olympic Games in 1960, 1964 and 1968 and achieved
the distinction of having qualified for the semi-finals of the 200 m in two of them. His time of 20.92 sec for the
200 m set at the Mexico Olympics in 1968 has yet to be surpassed by another Malaysian. At the Kingston
Commonwealth Games in 1966, he also became the first Malaysian to qualify for the final of the 220-yard
sprint.
It is even more amazing when one realizes that his athletic successes were achieved when he was pursuing
his medical studies. Unlike today, national athletes were not given any special preferences while in university.
The Bangkok Asian Games were held just a month before his final examinations and Jega had to leave for
the Games only the night before the first event and return immediately upon completing his events with the 3
gold medals in his hand luggage.
Jega’s achievements in medicine may not be as well known to the public, but they are certainly no less
distinguished. In 1969 he obtained the Diploma in Tropical Medicine and Hygiene from Mahidol University
in Bangkok and went on to the University of London where he obtained his Diploma in Clinical Pathology in
1971. In 1974 he passed the membership examination of the Royal College of Pathologists, being the first
Malaysian to obtain the MRCPath in Medical Microbiology by examination.
Jega served the Ministry of Health of Malaysia from 1967 till his retirement in 1998. Among the many important
appointments he held were the Head of the Division of Bacteriology at the Institute for Medical Research
(IMR) from 1971-1985, Head of Laboratory Services, General Hospital, Kuala Lumpur from 1985-1988,
Director of IMR from 1988 till 1994 and Deputy Director General of Health (Research and Technical Support)
from 1994 to 1998. He was an active researcher in the fields of infectious diseases and Medical Microbiology
and has published over 100 publications. After retirement he spent two years in Geneva at the Council for
Health Research in Development (COHRED), a UNDP affiliated organisation in research management. He
is currently the Pro-Chancellor of Universiti Sains Malaysia.
Parallel to his medical career Jega has also been actively involved with the development of sports medicine
and doping control in this country, having been the founding Secretary of the Malaysian Association of Sports
Medicine and the founding President of the Malaysian Association of Doping Control in Sports. He was also
the Deputy President of the Olympic Council of Malaysia. Currently he is the Honorary Medical Adviser to
the Commonwealth Games Federation, the Chairman of the Medical and Anti-Doping Commission of the
Olympic Council of Asia and a member of the Health Committee of the World Anti-Doping Agency.

MALAYSIAN HEALTH SYSTEMS
RESEARCH PROJECT
Introduction
Malaysia has historically been a leader among low- and middle-income countries in health systems
performance, most notably by achieving rapid reductions in under-5 and maternal mortality and extending
life expectancy for its population, and by providing universal access to healthcare services (Karim and Ali,
2013; Pathmanathan et al, 2003). However, like many middle- and upper-income countries, Malaysia’s health
system is now confronted by a new set of complex problems that will require a change in how healthcare is
financed and delivered. A growing non-communicable disease burden and an aging population bring new cost
pressures and associated health system challenges, as do advances in health technologies, and new drugs.
As Malaysia continues along the path towards becoming an industrialised, upper-income nation, Malaysian
citizens continue to raise their expectations about the performance of the government funded health sector
and its responsiveness in meeting their needs. A symptom of these pressures on the government-financed
health sector is the growing proportion of Malaysians who now seek health care in the private sector, leading
to fragmentation of health service delivery and a growing burden of out-of-pocket (OOP) financing.
The Malaysian health system is at a crossroads. While there is universal access to health care services through
a system of government provided, general revenue-financed care, increasingly Malaysians are choosing to
seek care in the private sector. Currently, over 40% of all health expenditures take place in the private sector.
The public sector provides 74% of in-patient care, but only 49% of out-patient care (Health Policy Research
Associates et al 2013). These private sector services are primarily paid for by OOP, as just 8% of private
sector expenditures are financed by insurance and 6% by employer coverage (Wan and Rannan-Eliya 2010).
This leads to relatively high OOP spending, which is a source of financial risk for citizens. At 40% of total
health expenditure, for example, it is two times that of regional comparator Thailand’s 20%. This suggests
clear scope for reduction in OOP costs (Tangcharoensathien et al. 2011).
The Government of Malaysia and Ministry of Health (MOH) have engaged the Senior Advisory Team (SAT)
from Harvard University to work with local counterparts on the Malaysia Health Systems Research Project
(MHSR). This project was started on 15 December 2014 and is coordinated by a project management team
(PMT). The PMT is led by Dr Shahnaz Murad, Deputy Director General of Health (Research & Technical
Support) as the Project Director. Oversight is through a multi-agency Steering Committee chaired by The
Honourable Minister of Health, Datuk Seri Dr S Subramaniam. Funding for the project is under the Tenth
Malaysia Plan Development Budget.
Objectives of MHSR
• To conduct an in-depth, comprehensive analysis of Malaysia’s health system.

• To develop a clear and comprehensive strategy for Malaysia’s health system transformation, including
options for a technically sound reform design that is high quality and ‘person-centered’; and analysis of
relevant stakeholders in the transformation process.
• To develop an implementation strategy to transform the health sector based upon policymakers decision
on the best option with recommendations concerning the first year of implementation.

RESEARCH PROJECT
Methodology
The overall analytical approach is based on the Harvard Flagship framework, which focuses on five key
policy instruments (financing, organisation, payment, regulation, and behaviour) that can be altered to
strengthen health systems and achieve reform objectives (Figure 1) (Roberts et al 2004). The project is
organized according to work packages, which in turn relate to these control knobs. However, discussion
and recommendations of the findings will be guided by their impact on the ultimate health system goals
of improved health status, citizen satisfaction, financial risk protection, and equity; and intermediate goals
of access, quality, efficiency, and cost. These recommendations will take into account ethical and political
considerations in setting the context for the overall reform.

Figure 1: The Harvard Health Systems Reform Approach
The MHSR consists of nine interlinked specific work packages namely:

1) policy analysis,
2) performance assessment,
3) institutional reform and political economy analysis,
4) health service delivery,
5) health financing,
6) provider payment,
7) pharmaceuticals,
8) health information systems, and
9) human resources for health.
23
RESEARCH PROJECT
The nine work packages have been further subdivided into 23 analytical teams (Table I). Each analytical team
is led by a Head / Focal Person / Coordinator from MOH and may include members from local universities
such as University of Malaya, National University of Malaysia, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Islamic Science
University of Malaysia and Northern University of Malaysia, as well as the Razak School of Government.
They are guided by and work with members of the Harvard Team.
A key component of MHSR is significant transfer of technology from Harvard University and skill building
amongst Malaysian researchers. This is done by various means including experiential learning through joint
analysis and synthesis, workshops, courses and problem-solving technical support.
At the Market Place during MOHAMM, each analytical team will be displaying their own posters on research
objectives and methodology.
Timeline
The MHSR is conducted over two years from December 2014 until December 2016. The Phase 1 Stage 1,
which is the in-depth analysis of Malaysia’s health system, is currently being undertaken and expected to be
completed in a staggered manner until November 2015.
Conclusion
This comprehensive analysis of Malaysia’s health system will provide key holistic insights and critical
information that will feed into policy dialogues and decision-making processes. This will enhance the evidence-
based approach of formulating feasible options for health transformation. It is also expected that this huge
body of work will generate new knowledge and information both locally and internationally through various
means of dissemination including conferences and publications.
