    THE HONG KONG Message from the President COLLEGE OF FAMILY PHYSICIANS There have been a lot of enquiries since my last Presidential message and I am very pleased it has aroused great interest amongst Fellows and Members. Let me stress again if you have intermediate qualification from Family Category II Conjoint Examination or from overseas training, you may benefit from our revised Exit Examination Guidelines and Training Requirements. The time limit for attempting and passing the Exit Examination Physicians is removed. Your previous hard work and extra future training may bear the fruit of FHKAM (Family Medicine). Please contact the College Secretariat for further information. The lead-in-water contamination problem has a snow ball effect.
