Today 24th July 2013 is officially MPCAM FIRST BIRTHDAY........

It has been a year since we are officially recognized by ROS as a valid society and entity.....
And it has been a tumultuous year for a new born infant crawling out from the shadows of doubts and skeptics with harsh critics(still ongoing mind you...LOL)....
We started our journey with a slow perceptible crawl away from despaired lost hopes....we knows what is our known flaw...a major flaw in our medical fraternity and we seek it out to limit it's tentacles and to stop it's chronic virulence .....to stop the loss of fellowship among our brethren of our medical fraternity and reaching out to as many as possible......to let them know we are SINCERE and HONEST in our mission for UNITY......

There is and there was resistance towards our intention of UNITY and there is doubts circulating among those who had heard of us and we seek to destroy and annihilate these negative feelings and thoughts as much as we can....we are successful in that and still will continue to do so......

To eliminate what is a chronic persistent scar that has gripped our professional and noble sentiments of what being a Medical doctors are all about......TO SERVE and TO COMFORT our patients via our much struggled hard earned skills and translate that into a work of art.....A work of ART filled with COMPASSION and EMPATHY for our fellow human beings irrespective of RACE, RELIGION, GENDER and CREED........

MPCAM starts with a message from all your brothers and sisters of MPCN.....a message to tell you that YOU ARE NO LONGER ALONE AND ISOLATED.....WE care for our own and in this FAMILY of brotherhood and sisterhood we developed that lost connection from our private side to our brethrens in the public government service.....and will continue to do so in the name of TRUST and LOVE for our own.....

We will continue our style of getting ourselves involved with ALL issues that plagues us and address that important agendas that was primarily affecting ALL our brethrens here in MPCN.....whether you are a private GP or a private Specialist(standalone or Private Hospital linked or attached) or you are in a Govt Service...YOU are all US........

As ONE we will step forward and ARMED ourselves with Knowledge and Wisdom complemented with a renewed sense of CONFIDENCE and FELLOWSHIP that we will be rightly aimed and primed as the best flock of Professionals that Malaysia will be very PROUD of.........

Happy Birthday to ALL of YOU.........

May GOD continue to Bless us and allow us to correct our mistakes with much compassion and love and to realized we are his HUMBLE servants in this life and hereafter........

Semper Fidelis........
