"I am involved in several healthcare manpower capacity building projects.  These projects give me the opportunity to teach professionals in the region and enhance their level of healthcare delivery.  I experienced the great healthcare we have in Singapore first hand.

I developed appendicitis while operating in a hospital in Myanmar.  I returned early to Singapore for its removal and really appreciated all the help I got from my boss Prof Tay and our Myanmar friends who arranged for my early return. I wish that many more people in our region could enjoy the great healthcare that we often take for granted."
