KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Feb 14 (Bernama-PRNewswire) — In 2016, it was estimated that there were 11.9 million international travels made by Malaysians and it is anticipated to increase to 14.2 million in 2021. Travelling has been one of the popular activities enjoyed by Malaysians especially the younger generation. Part of this phenomenon is contributed by an increase in the number of no-frills carriers and affordable accommodations that are operating in this region.
Falling sick would be an undesirable situation for any traveller, especially those travelling to a foreign land. In addition to being away from their home country and unfamiliarity, there is also a possibility of language barrier and an unpredictable cost of getting a medical consultation. In medicine, good communication is key. Good communication established between a doctor and the patient will ensure the correct diagnosis with the right medication dispensed.
