SEOUL : A group of South Korean senior doctors said Saturday that they would resign starting March 25 in support of junior medics in a nearly month-long strike over government training reforms that has plunged hospitals into chaos.
Representatives of medical professors at 20 universities -- who are also senior doctors at general hospitals -- held a meeting late Friday, with those at 16 institutions"overwhelmingly in favour" of supporting their junior colleagues, said Bang Jae-seung, the head of the group. The government has ordered junior medics to return or face legal action, and has moved to suspend the medical licences of those who refuse to comply, while offering incentives and setting up a hotline to support any who defy the walkout.
"We request the government once again. Please reconsider the figure of 2,000. Without this, initiating any negotiation will be impossible," he said.
