New Developments
To ensure sustainable value for all stakeholders in the
evolving healthcare industry, KPJ continues to grow its
network and capacity at existing hospitals, taking on seven
new development projects over the next eight years and
expanding its existing hospitals over the next few years.
Five of the seven new developments have been named by
the Malaysian Prime Minister YAB Dato’ Sri Mohd Najib Tun
Abdul Razak on 10 November 2011 as new projects under
the country’s Economic Transformation Programme (ETP),
with a key focus on medical tourism.
When completed, they will generate gross national income
(GNI) of almost RM1.3 billion and more than 3,000 new
jobs, and it will also give KPJ the capacity to serve more
international patients.
Among the five, KPJ Klang Specialist Hospital in Selangor,
KPJ Pasir Gudang Specialist Hospital in Johor and Sabah
Medical Centre in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, are expected to
complete the first phase of their development in 2012.
KPJ Pahang Specialist Hospital had its ground-breaking
ceremony officiated on 30 June 2011 by the Chief Minister
of Pahang, YAB Dato’ Sri DiRaja Adnan Yaakob.
KPJ Specialist Hospital Bandar Dato’ Onn, Johor, will serve
as a one-stop centre featuring state-of-the-art facilities in six
centres of excellence, namely Heart, Geriatric, Oncology,
Women and Child, Cosmetic & Reconstructive, as well as
Orthopedic and Related Surgery Centres.
