As a player in the tourism industry, it becomes our responsibility to assist within our means by creating ‘tools’ or platforms that would contribute in the tourist arrivals.

Only less than 5 minutes away from the hotel, setting up a partnership with Sime Darby Medical Centre Ara Damansara was the obvious thing to do. Suitable for post-operative treatments, the hotel’s privacy and comfort complements the excellent health services and facilities and tertiary care experience the hospital has to offer ensuring guests the best recovery. And what better way to heal and recuperate in the natural and peaceful settings of The Saujana Hotel,” he continued.

Speaking at the event between the two parties in The Saujana Hotel today, Sime Darby Healthcare’s CEO-Medical, Elaine Cheong said, “Currently we have several initiatives in place to reach and develop our foreign markets. We are taking part in healthcare marketing missions and exhibitions in selected target markets, promoting our facilities and services to various groups of consumers.  

I am optimistic that our collaboration with the The Saujana Hotel Kuala Lumpur to offer Health Screening Packages at competitive prices will help to position Malaysia as a preferred medical tourism destination in the region.”  

She added, “Sime Darby Healthcare always strives to give customers a positive experience through top-notch service. By providing high quality healthcare at competitive pricing, we hope to attract more international patients to our medical facilities.”
