Higher Education and Highways Minister Lakshman Kiriella said a Court ruling was expected on January 30 when the petition filed by two students with regard to the registration of the Malabe private medical college SAITM by the Sri Lanka Medical Council (SLMC) is taken up for hearing.

He said several private sector institutions have already expressed their willingness to open medical colleges which would help students to pass out as doctors and save Rs.7,000 million annually which would have to be spent if they study abroad.(Dayaseeli Liyanage)

Yep, SAITAM has the brainiest students and we need more of them. Thanks minister.

For GMOA it is ok for local doctors to go on scholarships for higher studies and work abroad but the stupidity is they do not want foreigners to come here either for studies and work. GMOA is full of jealous and selfish members. Shame.

YES Minister, you should open more private medical schools like SAITM. Because we should not waste good educated students. Get rid of this stupid GMOA. They are most jealousy people. We need more doctors.
