Just to add to the 'loghat' thing, when I first started working in Alor Setar, and asked the staff nurse for something, she asked me back "Laa ni?" I was totally confused but later found out that "Laa" means immediately or now. PAP does mean person accompanying patient, as Chee Foo says.
Haven't fully recovered from my EOD call during Raya. First day wasn't bad, even though slept for less than 2 hours. 2nd call, in NICU and SCN, intubated 4 babies; running 12 ventilators. Luckily they were all quite stable.
Chee Foo, count me in for the Lembah Bujang/Gunung Jerai thing. But let me know in advance as the only exercise I've been doing lately has been ward rounds and running to OT/ Labour room.
Chiew Leng, Chong Tien and Wen Jih, waiting to hear from you guys about your new hospitals.
