Reading out his text of speech, Piasau assemblyman Datuk Sebastian Ting at Diabetes Malaysia, Miri Branch charity dinner , Dr. Sim said smart partnership, public-private ventures, outsourcing, sharing and pooling assets are some of the effective ways to optimise the healthcare services in the country.

He praised Diabetes Malaysia, Miri branch for reaching out to the community on health awareness relating to diabetes and said the public will benefit a lot from knowing more about the sickness through education.

Diabetes Malaysia , he added, is in an ideal position to ensure quality life of diabetes patients through proper diabetes education. It is equally important that by working with other healthcare professionals we are able to reach the effectiveness in promoting preventive medicine.
