Annual Report 2013
KPJ HEALTHCARE BERHAD
106
Come 2015, KPJ Perlis Specialist Hospital and
the KPJ Pahang Specialist Hospital will open.
The KPJ Perlis Specialist Hospital will be KPJ’s
maiden foray into the northern most state of
Peninsular Malaysia. KPJ is jointly developing
the hospital in cooperation with Yayasan Islam
Perlis on a 4-acre plot of land in Kangar, Perlis
where it is expected to serve a population
of around 250,000 as well as patients from
throughout the state of Perlis and southern
Thailand. Built at an initial development cost
of around RM30 million, the rst phase of
the development will enable the hospital to
provide 60 operating beds with allowance to
raise the capacity to a total of 90 beds at a later
stage. The new facility will feature some of the
latest diagnostic imaging facilities and medical
equipment, and will also be equipped with
operation theatres alongside an intensive care
unit, labour room and more than 30 medical
consultant suites. Other services that will be
extended to patients, when the hospital is
completed, are physiotherapy, haemodialysis,
24-hour accident and emergency services and
outpatient services.
KPJ is set to expand its presence in Pahang
via the development of the KPJ Pahang
Specialist Hospital at Tanjung Lumpur,
Kuantan. This development, which will
complement the services of the existing
KPJ Kuantan Specialist Hospital in Pahang, is
being developed together with PASDEC Corp,
a subsidiary of Pahang State Development
Corporation via a 70-30 joint venture. The
upcoming facility will comprise 154 beds and
18 clinics while some 24 consultants will offer
general services in orthopaedic, surgery,
medical, obstetrics and gynaecology,
paediatric, ophthalmology, anaesthesiology,
radiology as well as ear, nose and throat care.
This will be followed by the opening of the
KPJ Bandar Dato’ Onn Specialist Hospital in
2016 and the opening of our new JV hospital
in Johor, KPJ-UTM, in the same year.
The KPJ Bandar Dato’ Onn Specialist
Hospital will be located at Bandar Dato’ Onn,
a new township located within the Iskandar
Development Region in Johor. The new
510-bed capacity hospital will be developed in
two phaseswith the rst phase encompassing
a built-up area of approximately 280,000 sq.
ft. and a 150-bed capacity. The new agship
hospital will provide six well equipped,
cutting edge centres of excellence namely a
heart centre, geriatric centre, cancer centre,
woman and child centre, cosmetic centre as
well as an orthopaedic and related surgery
centre. The hospital’s international-standard
offering and its strategic location would be
a draw to foreign patients especially from
neighbouring Singapore and Indonesia.
Come 2017, the KPJ Miri Specialist Hospital,
KPJ Klang Bayuemas Specialist Hospital and
another facility in Nilai are set to commence
their operations. Plans are also underway to
construct a hospital facility in Port Dickson by
2018 and another in Melaka in the same year.
These nine hospitals scheduled for
development between 2015 and 2018 will
certainly do much to bolster the Group’s
domestic footprint as well as strengthen our
standing as the largest network of private
specialist hospitals in Malaysia.
