Liberian Scholarship Students From China Perform Poorly

27 November 2012

The Liberia Medical and Dental Council (LMDC) has called on the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare (MOHSW) and the Ministry of Education to place a hold on awarding scholarship to medical students for study in China. Speaking at a news conference held in Monrovia on Monday, November 26, 2012, the LMDC through its Chairman, Professor Robert Kpoto, said medical practitioners graduating from Chinese medical schools are below expectation.

According to him, this could be that the selection process of these students for the scholarship program was not done properly. Hear Prof. Kpoto: "Medical practitioners graduating from Chinese medical schools are performing below expectation. They are even incomparable with doctors who are here. I mean, they are failure and something must be done about this."
