KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 16 (Bernama) -- Malaysia Healthcare Travel Council (MHTC) has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Ikatan Dokter Indonesia (IDI) in the interest of knowledge and experience transfers as well as upholding the ethics of practice.
The partnership will open doors for knowledge transfer in latest technologies, equipment and expertise through various initiatives and events, leading to the sustainable development of healthcare service offerings in both countries.
The MoU was signed in Jakarta yesterday by MHTC chief executive officer, Sherene Azli and IDI president, Prof Dr Ilham Oetama Marsis.
