會長的話

近來最熱烈的話題是什麼?當然是四年一度的世界盃。認識我的人會知道我是個足球迷,每星期會睇波踢波練波玩足球遊戲寫足球博客,最好的就是從沒有賭波。

我的公會生涯,也是從足球開始。在2003至2007年間,PDA曾舉辦了四次全港醫生七人足球賽,那些年我還未加入工會時,四屆都是由我在的瑪麗醫院醫生隊拿冠軍。其後我加入PDA後,再沒有舉辦足球比賽,因為主要攪手和賽事都被別人重金收購了。

有些人認為,工會一定是像打後衛,攪破壞,現代足球的後衛己經不是有破壞無建設了。 我的位置是右中場,喜愛助攻,我四年前免費轉會律敦治球隊後,已經連續四年做球隊的助攻王。 我以住幫手爭取侍產假,5年升AC,做工會也是本着幫同事發聲多做助攻。

我愛踢足球,踢一場波便可以認識十多人,我相信做人做事、踢足球和做公會也是一樣,最重要的是多結交朋友。在足球世界裏,一人球隊或是十一個球星的球隊是無法贏比賽的,我相信團結力量多於個人能力,PDA的會董有二十多人,重要的決定都是在會內傾談,我在這裡邀請各位加入做會員和會董,為同事出一分力。

HKPDA opinion survey - Should Medical Council relax internship rules on non-local graduates?


http://hkpda.org.hk/MCHK2014.htm


  • Under the MRO, non-local medical graduates are required to sit the MCHK s examination (LMCHK) and to complete a 12month internship training before they could register as medical practitioners.
  • The purpose of such requirements is to safeguard medical standards and to ensure non-local graduates will become familarized with the local healthcare system and practices before they are allowed to registered as medical practitioner.
  • To cope with manpower shortage in certain clinical areas in the public sector (e.g. A&E, Radiology, Medicine), it has been reported that the government has asked the MCHK to consider granting exemption for part of the licensing exam and the internship for overseas specialists. (  http://m.news.sina.com.hk/news/article/3187653/2/20140213 )
  • In the last few years, several measures have been implemented to ease manpower requirement in the HA.

(1) Annual medical students intake has been increased from 250 to 420.
(2) Requests for limited registration from the HA have all been approved.
(3) The frequency of licensing exam for non-local graduates has been increased from once per year to twice per year.


  • The HKPDA is of the view that the proposed relaxation is a major issue and would like to seek your views on this. The replies will be summarized and sent to the 14 elected members of the MCHK in the last week of this month.
