From The Chair's Desk
Dear Esteemed Colleagues and Healthcare Professionals,
It is with great pleasure and excitement that I extend a cordial invitation to the esteemed members of the medical fraternity to the Academy of Family Physicians of Malaysia (AFPM) Scientific Conference 2024, slated to be held on the 26th and 27th of April. As the Organizing Chairperson, it is my privilege to welcome you to this momentous event dedicated to the enhancement of primary care.
Under the theme "Primary Care - For Each and Everyone", our conference will shine a spotlight on the indispensable role played by primary care providers from both the governmental and private sectors. As custodians of comprehensive healthcare, these providers serve as the frontline ambassadors, ensuring accessible and quality healthcare for individuals and communities alike.
Our primary objective for this conference is to deliver the latest updates and essential information in the realm of primary care, encompassing vital discussions on artificial intelligence and digitalization. The landscape of healthcare is evolving rapidly, and our collective goal is to equip ourselves with the knowledge and tools required to adapt and excel in this dynamic environment.
This year holds special significance for us as we commemorate the 50th anniversary of AFPM's establishment (1973-2023). We are also moving to our new building in Putrajaya in early 2024. In light of this milestone, we have elevated our traditional scientific meeting to a comprehensive scientific conference. This transformation mirrors our unwavering commitment to advancing medical knowledge, fostering innovation, and fostering excellence in family medicine.

Moreover, the event will feature booth exhibitions showcasing the latest advancements in medical technologies, devices, and pharmacological items, providing attendees with firsthand exposure to cutting-edge innovations.
In conjunction with this momentous occasion, we are thrilled to announce a gala dinner to celebrate AFPM's golden jubilee. We extend a heartfelt invitation to all past presidents and significant contributors to AFPM's success to join us in commemorating this remarkable milestone.
I extend my earnest invitation to healthcare professionals, academicians, researchers, and industry experts to join us in this collaborative endeavour. Your participation and insights will undoubtedly enrich the discussions and contribute to the success of this conference.
Together, let us embrace this opportunity to learn, share, and celebrate the achievements in primary care at the AFPM Scientific Conference 2024. I eagerly await the gathering of passionate minds dedicated to shaping the future of family medicine.
Let’s join us at the conference.
