On April 18, the team of Chinese medical experts arrived in Malaysia with anti-epidemic materials. During our work in Malaysia, we visited Malaysian medical institutions to understand the epidemic situation, and exchanged anti-epidemic experiences with local public health experts and medical personnel.

On an intensive two-week itinerary, the expert group visited 13 local research and medical institutions in the capital Kuala Lumpur, Sarawak and Sabah, participated in 15 video conferences and conducted a series of special trainings. Exchanges with our counterparts in Malaysia are very smooth. The professionalism and dedication of the Malaysian counterparts are impressive. At the end of each exchange meeting, they always surrounded Chinese experts for additional questions.

We note that Malaysia attaches great importance to the prevention and treatment of epidemics. Since the implementation of the action control order, the social frequency and the reach of people have been reduced considerably. Public awareness of protection continues to rise, and hand sanitizers are also placed in public places for disinfection. The number of newly diagnosed cases in Malaysia has decreased significantly in recent weeks, and preparations are being made for a full return to production. The Malaysian Ministry of Health has released a health code similar to China to identify and track people with different health conditions.

Malaysia has a good Chinese medicine base. In many exchange activities, many Malaysian officials and medical personnel present raised hopes of understanding the application of Chinese medicine in the fight against the new crown epidemic in China. The Department of Traditional and Auxiliary Medicine of the Malaysian Ministry of Health and the group of Chinese experts held four exchanges on the application of Chinese medicine in the fight against the epidemic. Staff from dozens of institutions such as the Laman University Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the Malaysian Association of Chinese Medicine and others participated in the exchange.

In addition, we also discussed the traditional Chinese medicine anti-epidemic treatment plan based on local reality.

Communication is not limited to offline. The group of Chinese experts conducted a live webcast on social media and made multiple video connections for Chinese overseas in Malaysia and other countries, explaining in detail from the perspectives of personal protection, epidemic trends and mental health.

Malaysian Health Director Nur Hisam said the arrival of the China Group of Medical Experts has strengthened Malaysia’s confidence in defeating the new coronary pneumonia epidemic, hoping to learn from China’s experience in the Fight epidemics and overcome the new coronary pneumonia epidemic as soon as possible.
