Need for patient's consent for medical treatment

I am critical of the Ministry of Health and in particular of the health minister for the confusion over the need to get the patient's patient for medical treatment.

This confusion arose from the decision of the Singapore Medical Council to impose a fine of $100,000 on a doctor who failed to get the patient's consent for a treatment.

Why do I blame the Ministry of Health?
