I attended Medical Review Course for the first time in December 2005 at Subang Jaya Resort and alhamdulillah I passed the exam. After a lapse of 5 years, on 24 and 25 July 2010, I attended the MRO course for the second time at Dynasty Hotel, Kuala Lumpur. The course was organised by Academy of Occupational and Environmental Medicine Malaysia (AOEMM). 34 participants who are Appointed Medical Examiner(AME) for PETRONAS,SHELL,EXXON MOBIL and PMU attended the course.
