KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysian doctors who have worked overseas for more than 10 years can now return to the country without having to undergo the three-year compulsory Government service.

However, Health Minister Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai said the new ruling would only be applicable to those who had self-funded their own medical studies.

The new ruling, aimed at attracting talented Malaysian overseas to return home, would not be applicable to those whose medical studies had been sponsored by the Government.

He told reporters this after launching the Health Tourism Congress at the KLCC convention centre here on Monday.
