SUBANG Member of Parliament Wong Chen is hot on the heels of the Ministry of Health and the Selangor State Health Department to seek a detailed schedule for the construction of Subang Jaya’s Klinik Kesihatan in USJ1.
Work on the RM50mil much-needed facility is scheduled to begin in the last quarter of this year and is expected to be fully completed by 2028.
“We have noticed land-clearing at the site of the Klinik Kesihatan in USJ1. But we have not received any updates on the detailed schedule for the construction. I have written to the Ministry of Health, Selangor Health Department, Selangor Public Works Department, Selangor Lands and Mines Department and the Subang Jaya City Council to request for a thorough briefing and update session on the construction plans.”
“I have asked for a timeline for the ground-breaking ceremony, the schedule of construction as well as when construction will be completed. I have also asked for when the klinik will be operational,” he said.
Wong Chen said he will also table the questions in Parliament during the June-July Sitting.
The Klinik Kesihatan will be built on a 4.238-acre (17,140 sq m) land in USJ1, approximately the size of two football fields. Once operational, it will have the capacity to attend to 500-800 patients at any given time.
The facility will offer a range of services, including outpatient and emergency departments, a pharmacy with a drive-thru facility, imaging services, maternal and child health care, pathology, dental services, and rehabilitation departments.
