Jasvir Singh Ram Singh will serve the board of visitors of Hospital Bentong for a two-year period until end-2027.
He received his letter of appointment, signed by Health Minister Dr Dzulkefly Ahmad, from the Pahang hospital’s director Dr S. Vikneswara.
In Malaysia, a Hospital Board of Visitors (BOV) acts as a bridge between the community and the hospital, monitoring service quality and ensuring patient welfare.
These boards, also known as Lembaga Pelawat Hospital, play a crucial role in channeling public feedback, supporting underprivileged patients, and promoting volunteerism. They are appointed by the Minister of Health and comprise individuals with healthcare knowledge and community representation.
Jasvir, who is a member of the Bentong Municipal Council, also serves as special officer for Sikh affairs to Pahang Menteri Besar Wan Rosdy Wan Ismail.
