Chinese expert team wraps up Malaysia visit, pledges more cooperation in fighting Covid-19

Sunday, 03 May 2020 05:25 PM MYT

The team was organised by China’s National Health Commission and selected by the health commission of Guangdong province, comprised of eight health experts in various fields such as infectious disease, respiratory, intensive care, microbiology/virology, nosocomial infection and Traditional Chinese medicine .

“We wanted to share with our Malaysian friends on what China has experienced and what we have done in Guangdong Province to fight the pandemic; we wanted to share without reservation in the hope that they could apply what is suitable for them,” Li told reporters before leaving Malaysia, noting that “I think we have achieved that goal.”

Following the meeting, Malaysian Health Minister Adham Baba said Malaysia has gained valuable insight into handling the Covid-19 outbreak from the experiences shared by the Chinese expert team. Malaysian officials said they are looking at further cooperation with China in fighting the pandemic, including the development of a vaccine. Li and his team are also looking forward to working with Malaysian counterparts on medical, technical and research cooperation in the future.

“We must work together to fight infectious disease. A country is safe only when every other country is safe,” said Li. “No country could detach itself from an interconnected world.”
