“We hope the government will accept 798 dialysis patients across the country, including in Sabah and Sarawak, and help them to continue intensive care.

“Currently, MMC is only able to pay employees’ salaries up to this month.
“If they still cannot get a licence from the health ministry, MMC has no other choice but take the final step to do a winding-up to pay the existing debts via the sale of all assets,” she said.
