From the Paper:

"This anticipation may not be necessarily what the citizens of Malaysia have earmarked as their highest priorities. Much of the health care provided for them at any of the local clinics may not be what the citizens are looking for. The citizen's attitudes towards health care are likely to be different than the citizens from other developed countries."
"This study will seek to discover those attitudes and how they affect health care coverage, and efficiency of the doctors, nurses and health care professionals at a health care facility in Kuala Lumpur. The study will seek to determine whether the attitudes affected by the citizens affect the health care coverage."
