Traditionally, UKM Medical <strong>Faculty</strong> <strong>Research</strong> Committee (RC) and Ethics Committee (EC) used<br />
to be two separate committees. The <strong>Research</strong> Committee was responsible for the evaluation <strong>of</strong><br />
research proposals from the po<strong>in</strong>t <strong>of</strong> view <strong>of</strong> scientific merit and methodology as well as for the<br />
approval <strong>of</strong> research grants. The RC also decided whether proposal needed approval<br />
from the EC. The EC on the other hand, evaluated the research proposal from the po<strong>in</strong>t <strong>of</strong><br />
view <strong>of</strong> research ethics to ensure that the rights and safety subjects were protected
