However, the current and future challenges will affect the sustainability and relevance of the present system. Therefore, readjustment of the country’s health system is critical. 1Care is the restructured national health system concept that would be responsive and provides choice of quality health care, ensuring universal coverage for the health care needs of the population through the spirit of solidarity and equity. The philosophy of the 1Care concept is that the health system will undergo a transformation to one that is comprehensive in terms of scope, equity, affordability, effectiveness and efficiency in terms of financing, integrated in terms of delivery and accountable in terms of governance (stewardship). The 1Care concept is in tandem with the 1Malaysia philosophy to foster greater cohesiveness of the Malaysian population through the national health system. The proposed restructured Malaysian Health System will retain the existing strengths of the current system. The concept focuses on three components which is streamlining of MOH’s governance and stewardship functions and restructuring of the delivery and financing system. To support the 1Care initiative and ensure effective integration of the public and private sector, it is proposed that the health system will also be financed in a more integrated manner. It is expected that with 1Care, the population will receive greater access to higher quality care which is affordable and sustainable through better cost containment.

  • Dam Pre-Release As an Important Operation Strategy in Reducing Flood Impact in Malaysia
    E3S Web of Conferences 34, 02017 (2018) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/20183402017 CENVIRON 2017 Dam pre-release as an important operation strategy in reducing flood impact in Malaysia Nurul Hidayah Ishak1*, and Ahmad Mustafa Hashim1 1Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS, 32610 Bandar Seri Iskandar, Perak, Malaysia Abstract. The 2014 flood was reported to be one of the worst natural disaster has ever affected several states in the northern part of Peninsular Malaysia. Overwhelming rainfall was noted as one of the main factors causing such impact, which was claimed to be unprecedented to some extent. The state of Perak, which is blessed with four cascading dams had also experienced flood damage at a scale that was considered the worst in history. The rainfall received had caused the dam to reach danger level that necessitated additional discharge to be released. Safety of the dams was of great importance and such unavoidable additional discharge was allowed to avoid catastrophic failure of the dam structures. This paper discusses the dam pre-release as a significant dam management strategy in reducing flood impact. An important balance between required dam storage to be maintained and the risk element that can be afforded is the crucial factor in such enhanced operation strategy. While further possibility in developing a carefully engineered dam pre-release strategy can be explored for dam operation in Malaysia, this has already been introduced in some developed countries. Australia and South Africa are examples where pre-release has been practiced and proven to reduce flood risk.

Quantitative assessment of social vulnerability in Malaysia is worrying because it has been given less attention than hazard-related studies. Therefore, this study’s objective is to find out the indicators used for social vulnerability assessment in the context of a landslide in Malaysia.
