Malaysian Medical Association (MMA) members who are fully or partially registered with the Malaysian Medical Council (MMC) and their contacts. MMA is the main representative body for all registered medical practitioners in Malaysia.

You may qualify if:
- Malaysian citizen
- Full or partial registration with MMC
- Work a minimum of six (6) months in public healthcare sector in Malaysia. Doctors who have just been working for less than six months are still adapting to the duties and atmosphere of the hospital, and the responsibilities they hold are also different from those of a senior doctor making them not suitable to include in this study.
You may not qualify if:
- Medical doctors currently on a long leave. As we only have a short period of data collection, so we will exclude this group of subject.
