18. Training is going on quite well at 3 University Hospitals in Bangkok - King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital - Ramathibodi Hospital - Siriraj Hospital The other 2 centers need extra support and encouragement. - Rajvithee Hospital - Chiengmai University Hospital It is expected that the completion of the training is in July 2009 for some residents, extension for the rest.

19. Chulalongkorn University approved for ROMP Competency Training as -Higher Graduate Diploma of Clinical Science Programme in Medical Physics -The training will be started in 2009 for radiation therapy, 2010 for Medical Imaging Licensing for Qualified Medical Physicist (2008-2009)
