Expert says holiday for KL's win throws medical exam schedule into disarray
Infectious diseases expert Dr Adeeba Kamarulzaman is unhappy over the announcement of a public holiday to celebrate Kuala Lumpur City FC's (KL City FC) victory in the Malaysia Cup football tournament.
She said in a post on Twitter that it had affected the schedule of professional exams which had already been affected by Covid-19 and resultant lockdowns.
"Wow, is this truly necessary?
"It’s thrown our specialist professional exams, clinics and operating theatre schedule all helter-skelter.
"IMHO, we really don’t need this, especially not at a time when we have so much catching up to do as a result of Covid-19," said Adeeba, who is a committee member of the World Health Organization (WHO) Science Council and former dean of the Faculty of Medicine, Universiti Malaya.
Yesterday, Federal Territories Minister Shahidan Kassim said all three Federal Territories of Kuala Lumpur, Labuan and Putrajaya will get an extra public holiday this Friday to celebrate the win.
"KL City FC won the TM Malaysia Cup 2021's final game at the Bukit Jalil National Stadium.
"It was KL City FC's best performance, ending a 32-year wait to win the cup again after 1989.
"Thus, I would like to announce that the government has agreed to make this Friday, Dec 3, a public holiday for Kuala Lumpur, Putrajaya and Labuan, in conjunction with the victory," he said.
The game saw KL City FC defeating Johor Darul Takzim FC, or better known as JDT, 2-0.
