With the aim of strengthening cooperation in the healthcare sector between Bangladesh and Malaysia, Malaysia Healthcare Week 2026 was held in Dhaka. The Malaysia Healthcare Pavilion, set up across booths 15 to 19 at Hall-2 of the International Convention City Bashundhara, provided visitors with an opportunity to learn about Malaysia’s advanced healthcare services, modern medical technologies and a range of treatment facilities. The event began on September 16 and continued until September 19.
Organized as part of the Asian Tourism Fair 2026, the event featured several leading Malaysian healthcare institutions, including Alpha IVF & Women’s Specialists, KPJ Ampang Puteri Specialist Hospital, IHH Healthcare Malaysia, KL Fertility & Gynecology Centre, and Sunway City Kuala Lumpur.
As part of the programme, a ‘Discover Malaysia Healthcare Corporate Networking Dinner’ was held on the evening of September 17 at Renaissance Dhaka Gulshan Hotel in the capital. The event was attended by Hazwan Hasnol, Chargé d’Affaires of the Malaysian High Commission in Dhaka, officials from the organizing body, the Malaysia Healthcare Travel Council (MHTC), representatives of various Malaysian hospitals and healthcare institutions, as well as corporate representatives from relevant sectors in Bangladesh.
The organizers said the main objective of the event was to showcase the quality of Malaysia’s healthcare services, its modern medical facilities and technological capabilities to the people of Bangladesh. Irving Aviation Limited is working as the business partner in Bangladesh of the Malaysia Healthcare Travel Council (MHTC), the principal organizer of the event.
The organizers also said that a similar programme would soon be held in the port city of Chattogram following the Dhaka event. The initiative will provide an opportunity for discussions with individuals and representatives of organizations involved in the local healthcare sector, with the aim of further strengthening healthcare cooperation between Bangladesh and Malaysia.
