Focus on the correct issue, please!

With reference to the problem of a shortage of doctors in the public service, it is mind boggling as to the steps the government are taking to correct this problem. Instead of focusing on how to interest doctors who have fulfilled their requirements in public service to stay and maybe rewarding them, they are turning their attention to how to lure doctors who are practicing abroad to come back.

Mind you, it is the experience people have working in the public service that irks them, so if this could be improved, it could maybe be more successful in the long term than to spend gazillions of ringgits to lure back doctors form overseas to plug the short term gap?

Could the latest reports that doctors who have practiced overseas may not be required to perform the compulsory 3 years service to the government be another one of those women-will-have-to-get-permission-from-family-members- before-they-go-overseas statements, or is it one of the PGCC-type projects, or could it be like the Petronas Twin Towers short-lived reality, because the focus here is totally wrong.
