One of the areas is in the piece of land and the potential teaching hospital.<br \/>\u00a0<br \/>\u201cWe are mindful that in Hong Kong, we are short of space, land. Of course, we would welcome the institutes which submit proposals for the development of this new medical school to provide us with a proposal as to how they can start the medical school, what time, the timeline of this plan. Of course, the major issue that we have to consider is the campus, as well as the teaching hospital.<br \/>\u00a0<br \/>\u201cThe institutes that would propose the new medical school can certainly explore other opportunities and possibilities. For example, they can consider any existing hospitals as teaching hospitals or they can find alternative sites to build the campus.\u201d<br \/>\u00a0<br \/>The health chief added that setting up the new medical school&#8217;s campus and teaching hospital in the Northern Metropolis&#8217;s Ngau Tam Mei could be a long-term plan, and institutes can consider some temporary facilities in their proposals.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Secretary for Health Prof Lo Chung-mau said establishing Hong Kong&#8217;s third medical school will be a huge task with very important implications for the future for the city&#8217;s medical education, and stressed that the Government welcomes institutes to submit proposals for the new medical school&#8217;s development.\u00a0While elaborating on the healthcare related measures announced in yesterday\u2019s<span class=\"post-excerpt-end\">&hellip;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"more-link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradenet.hk\/b2b\/medical-school-proposals-welcomed\/\" class=\"themebutton\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1897,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[34],"class_list":["post-1896","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-news"],"nelio_content":{"isAutoShareEnabled":true,"autoShareEndMode":"never","automationSources":{"useCustomSentences":false,"customSentences":[]},"followers":[1],"suggestedReferences":[],"efiUrl":"","efiAlt":"","highlights":[],"permalinkQueryArgs":[]},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.5 -
