SHAH ALAM: Medical treatment given at government clinics in estates are on par with those of other clinics, Plantations Committee chairman G. Kamala said at the Selangor State Assembly yesterday.  <\/p>\n

"Eighty-six clinics are now operating in 91 estates in Selangor and estate workers receive good treatment.   <\/p>\n

"Cases that require expert advice are referred to government hospitals," said Kamala, who is Taman Sri Andalas assemblyman.  <\/p>\n

She was replying to questions from Ijok assemblyman K. Parthiban on the conditions and reasons for the closure of a clinic.  <\/p>\n

"We must understand that government clinics operate under the auspices of the estate.   <\/p>\n

"Some estates have been developed, causing the clinics to move to other locations as the workers are no longer living within the plantations," she said.  <\/p>\n

Kamala explained that doctors visit government clinics in the estates to check on conditions and on the medications required.  <\/p>\n

Parthiban later told The Star<\/i> that he brought up the matter of clinics closing down in estates because he was concerned for the people's welfare.  <\/p>\n

"Government clinics are important in cases of emergency.  <\/p>\n

"If one clinic closes down, it could be another six kilometres before we reach another one," he said.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
