“In this exhibition, we present more than 20 hospitals from Malaysia and work closely with the Tourism Promotion Agency from Malaysia. Our goal is to ensure medical tourists have access to the most comprehensive information regarding health services and medical tourism throughout the four-day expo,” stated Lokman Izam Abd Aziz, Vice President of Marketing & Communication at the Malaysia Healthcare Travel Council (MHTC). “Malaysia Healthcare offers exceptional experiences for those seeking treatment, with advantages such as proximity, affordable prices, and outstanding halal tourism, making Malaysia a top choice for medical and wellness travel.”
Strengthening Malaysia-Indonesia Healthcare Ties

This allows us to better understand and meet the healthcare goals of patients looking towards Malaysia for their medical needs,” he explained.
Promoting Health and Wellness Tourism
Malaysia’s strategic initiatives in health tourism are paying off, with a growing number of Indonesian medical tourists opting for treatment in Malaysia.

Initiatives such as MHExpo play a crucial role in this strategy, offering a platform for Malaysian healthcare providers to connect with international patients and expand their reach.
As Malaysia continues to innovate and elevate its healthcare services, events like the Health Tourism Exhibition, and MHExpo, play a crucial role in reinforcing its leadership in health tourism. By offering a comprehensive and accessible platform for medical tourists, MHExpo ensures that Malaysia remains a top destination for quality healthcare and wellness travel.
