Doctor says ‘Bye KKM’, hello Australia – Dr Dhivya's post sparks talk on job security
SHAH ALAM – A former doctor under the Health Ministry has sparked public reaction after posting a video announcing her resignation to work in Australia.
The online response has largely been supportive, reflecting widespread concerns over the ministry's working conditions.
Dr Dhivya Dhyana, who is also a part-time model, shared the video on her Instagram page @drdhivyadhyana with the post garnering over 1,000 likes including a comment from Malaysian comedian Dr Jason Leong, who congratulated her for leaving.
The ministry has long faced criticism for inefficiencies in addressing staff grievances. Issues often cited include low salaries and the lack of permanent placements, both of which contribute to widespread job insecurity among doctors.
In her caption, Dr Dhivya wrote: “I gave you more chances to change than I gave my ex-boyfriend, and yet you still chose your toxic traits over my well-being, so don't blame me for leaving you. It was time to say goodbye for good.”
The post was accompanied by a video in which she roleplays leaving Malaysia with a suitcase, though she was already residing in Australia. It followed a previous post documenting her process of relocating.
In that earlier post, Dr Dhivya shared her experiences as a doctor in Australia, portraying a more balanced and fulfilling lifestyle. She captioned it: “It's the work-life balance for me.”
While her posts carry humour, based on the comments on her postings - it resonates deeper frustration shared by many young Malaysian medical professionals.
