We were honoured to welcome YB Tuan Sim Tze Tzin, Deputy Minister of Investment, Trade and Industry (MITI), to the iElder booth. During his visit, we shared our vision for the future of senior living and how AIM Healthcare's integrative medicine approach, together with assistive technology, supports healthy ageing, independent living, and improved quality of life for older adults.

We also thank Delren, President of AgeCOPE, for joining the session and contributing to the meaningful discussion. We appreciate your interest, insights, and support in advancing age-friendly innovation, and we look forward to continued collaboration in building a more inclusive and age-friendly Malaysia.

It was three incredible days of meaningful connections, live product demonstrations, and inspiring conversations with healthcare professionals, caregivers, and families from across the region.

🏥 What We Showcased at Our Booth

We presented a curated selection of our most trusted elderly care solutions — giving visitors the opportunity to see, touch, and experience them firsthand.

🛏️ wissner-bosserhoff GmbH Sentida Bed with Careturner

We were honoured to have Mr. Melvin Kong, Principal of Wissner-Bosserhoff, share how thoughtful bed design goes beyond functionality — enhancing safety, improving caregiver efficiency, and ultimately delivering better outcomes for patients. The Sentida Bed with Careturner represents the next generation of smart patient care, combining automatic repositioning, pressure injury prevention, and caregiver support in one integrated solution that reduces the total cost of care.

🦽 Kawamura Cycle Wheelchairs & Japanese Elderly Care Products

We had the privilege of hearing from Mr. Shibuya-san, Principal of Kawamura Cycle, who shared the philosophy behind one of Japan's most respected wheelchair brands. While Kawamura wheelchairs may come at a premium, their enduring popularity is built on uncompromising quality, meticulous craftsmanship, long-term durability, and a deep understanding of users' real-life needs. Sometimes, true value isn't measured by the initial price tag — but by the years of comfort, reliability, and independence it provides.

Visitors explored a range of mobility solutions including the RR60 reclining wheelchair, the WAVIT DAF posture wheelchair, and the KA6 lightweight wheelchair, alongside Japan's latest elderly care innovations.

🚿 Etac Clean Shower Commode Chair (Sweden)

An award-winning, MOH Medical Device Authority (MDA) registered shower commode chair trusted by private hospitals across Malaysia, including VIP wards. Slim at just 50cm wide yet roomy and stable, it's designed for safe, dignified use in the bathroom — backed by a 5-year warranty.

🤝 MOU Signing: Arthritis Foundation Malaysia × AIM Healthcare

This event also marked an important milestone — the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between Arthritis Foundation Malaysia (AFM) and AIM Healthcare.

This partnership reflects our shared commitment to promoting healthy ageing, raising awareness of arthritis, and improving access to quality healthcare, education, and support for individuals living with musculoskeletal conditions. By combining our strengths and expertise, we aim to:

• Enhance public awareness on arthritis prevention and management
• Empower communities through health education and screening initiatives
• Support healthier, more active ageing for Malaysians

This collaboration is just the beginning, and we look forward to creating meaningful impact together.

We attended APHM's Gala Dinner. Congratulations to Datuk Dr Kuljit Singh on being re-elected as President of the Association of Private Hospitals Malaysia (APHM) for an unprecedented fifth consecutive term. This remarkable achievement reflects the confidence and trust that the private healthcare community continues to place in his leadership, vision, and unwavering commitment to advancing Malaysia's healthcare sector.
