  • ADAMS 2023 PAVES THE WAY FOR MALAYSIA TO BECOME THE EPICENTER OF MEDICAL AESTHETIC TOURISM.

    The Asia Dermatology & Aesthetic Medicine Summit (ADAMS) second edition was proudly hosted by KO Academy, an internal training institution under DR. KO Skin Specialist (DR. KO), at the Shangri-La Hotel Kuala Lumpur today. KO Academy is committed to establishing Malaysia as a center for medical aesthetic tourism. Major industry participants, including the Malaysia Tourism Agency Association (MATA), the Malaysia Society of Aesthetic Medicine (MSAM), the Malaysia Healthcare Travel Council (MHTC), the Malaysia External Trade Development Corporation (MATRADE), and the Malaysian Investment Development Authority (MIDA), attended the event.

    Officiated by Tourism Malaysia’s Director General, Dato’ Dr. Ammar Abd. Ghapar, ADAMS 2023 was held from September 23 to 24, 2023, at Shangri-La Kuala Lumpur, attracting over 600 local and international medical experts and industry professionals. The summit featured more than 50 exhibition booths by leading medical brands, solidifying its position as the premier regional event in the fields of dermatology and aesthetic medicine.

    In his speech, Ammar highlighted that Malaysia welcomed more than 800,000 healthcare travelers, generating around RM1.3 billion in revenue in 2022 alone, underscoring the positive recovery of the country’s healthcare travel industry in the post-pandemic era. “Hence, let us leverage this opportunity to take our medical community to the next level, and ADAMS, this year in its second edition, has become an excellent avenue for dermatologists, plastic surgeons, aesthetic doctors, and other specialists to network, exchange knowledge, and discuss the latest trends and technologies.”

    A standout event at ADAMS 2023 was the forum titled “Making Malaysia the Regional Destination for Medical Aesthetic Tourism.” The diverse panel included experts and public figures such as Dato’ Dr. Ko Chung Beng (Founder & CEO of KO Academy), Dr. Edmond Lau (President of ADAMS 2023), Dato’ Dr. Khalid Mohd Harun (President of MATA), Dr. Masilamoney Asirvatham (President of MSAM), Ms. Tutie Ismail (Vice President of Communications, MHTC), Dr. Lim Ing Kien, more popularly known as Dr. Ingky (Founder of Medii Skin Studio, Skynfyx, and TikTok Content Creator), and Miss Serene Claire (Miss Universe Malaysia 2020 Runner Up, Actress & Influencer).

    The forum deliberated on strategies to enhance Malaysia’s global reputation for aesthetic treatments. These strategies included marketing efforts to spotlight Malaysia’s expertise, affordability, and cultural attractions; forging partnerships with international healthcare organizations, universities, and medical associations; and providing financial incentives, tax breaks, or grants to stimulate investment in the medical tourism sector.

    Ko mentioned Malaysia’s cost-effective services in his speech, saying, “Compared to countries with higher costs of living and greater overheads, Malaysia can offer the same level of expertise and technology but at a fraction of the price. This affordability extends across a wide range of procedures, from non-invasive treatments to more complex surgeries. Patients worldwide are discovering that they don’t need to compromise on quality to achieve their aesthetic goals—Malaysia offers world-class care at a price that makes achieving those goals both feasible and financially sensible.”

    The ADAMS 2023 president said, “It is my hope that each session, discussion, and interaction will serve as a source of inspiration and motivation, propelling us to new heights in our professional endeavors.” Lau also stated that ADAMS 2023 was not a regular medical conference, highlighting its purpose to achieve the common goal of propelling Malaysia as the region’s destination for medical aesthetic tourism.

    Additionally, ADAMS 2023 donated RM12,000 to the Malaysian Skin Foundation (MSF), facilitated multiple symposiums by doctors and specialists, on-ground engagement initiatives, and networking sessions where attendees were provided with a conducive environment to establish direct interactions, build relationships, and explore potential collaborations. Moving forward, ADAMS will continue its contributions to the field of dermatology and aesthetic medicine while offering attendees a more comprehensive and impactful experience at each event in the years to come.

Each bite includes a hearty helping of fresh, crisp lettuce and rich, creamy garlic mayo, all nestled between perfectly toasted sesame buns.

    A meal is never complete without a side dish, and the fried sweet potato fries are a perfect complement. These succulent sweet potatoes are ‘crisscut’ and topped with a dusting of icing sugar.

    Available as an add-on to the Wow Bucket combo or ala carte, these fries are a balance of sweet and savory.

    Additionally, the ongoing partnership between KFC, streetwear brand Pestle & Mortar Clothing, and

    local comic artist Ujang continues to grow. In addition to the existing range of merchandise launched during KFC Malaysia’s 50th Anniversary celebrations in July, the collection now has two new items. A reversible bucket hat and a limited edition 24k gold-plated zinc enamel pin

  • MENERUSI LAGU ‘LAT TALI LAT’ OLEH KHAI BAHAR, SEMANGAT ANAK MUDA DAPAT DISUNTIK.

    Khai Bahar terus berjuang selepas memenangi Penyanyi Pilihan Alha Alfa di Anugerah Juara Lagu 37, dan kali ini, dengan lagu terbaharunya, “Lat Tali Lat,” beliau membawa sedikit kelainan dengan lagu bergenre pop.

    ‘Lat Tali Lat’ merupakan hasil nukilan daripada komposer berbakat iaitu Johan John ataupun lebih dikenali sebagai Bob Junior. Lirik yang dicipta oleh Khaleel membuatkan lagu ini lebih unik kerana ia dapat menyuntik semangat anak-anak muda pada masa sekarang untuk menghargai dan terus mengekalkan permainan tradisional agar tidak hilang ditelan arus zaman moden. Khai Bahar meletakkan sepenuh komitmen beliau yang membuatkan lagu ini hanya mengambil masa 3 jam sahaja dalam pembikinan.

    Lagu ini telah dipilih sebagai runut bunyi bagi drama komedi seram, Puaka Cuti Semester yang sudah mula bersiaran pada 24 Ogos 2023 yang lalu di platform Tonton. Tajuk lagu ini amat sesuai kerana drama ini menampilkan unsur permainan tradisional anak-anak Melayu suatu ketika dahulu. Drama ini mengisahkan tentang lima orang pelajar kolej iaitu Iqsan, Zubir, Fahmi, Leha dan Aina yang mempunyai latar belakang berbeza. Cuti semester telah pun tiba, namun mereka semua tidak pulang ke rumah

    masing-masing atas alasan tersendiri. Pada suatu hari, mereka diganggu oleh pelbagai gangguan mistik. Berjayakah kelima-lima pelajar ini merungkai gangguan yang dihadapi mereka? 

    Jangan lepaskan peluang anda untuk muat turun lagu ‘Lat Tali Lat’ di iTunes atau melalui aplikasi penstriman atas talian seperti Spotify, Apple Music, Youtube Music, KKBox, Tidal dan Deezer.
