It is with great excitement and pride that I welcome all delegates, speakers, and partners to the MASM Conference 2026 & MASM BGM 2026, hosted this year at the outstanding Sunway Medical Centre. Having our conference in a centre renowned for excellence and innovation sets the perfect stage for what I believe will be one of our most impactful gatherings yet.

Our theme, “Precision Sports & Exercise Medicine,” signals a bold step forward for our profession. We are entering an era where personalised data, advanced imaging, performance analytics, genetic insights, and precision rehabilitation are transforming the way we work. These breakthroughs empower us to tailor care with unprecedented accuracy — enhancing performance, preventing injuries, and improving health outcomes for athletes and active individuals across the nation.

As the umbrella body for sports medicine in Malaysia, MASM proudly represents a dynamic community of more than 450 experts — sports physicians, orthopaedic surgeons, physiotherapists, sports scientists, exercise professionals, chiropractors, rehabilitation specialists, researchers, and students. This rich diversity is our strength. Precision sports and exercise medicine thrives when multidisciplinary expertise comes together, and this conference provides exactly that platform.

The scientific programme this year has been crafted to energise and inspire. From cutting-edge lectures on personalised performance strategies to hands-on workshops exploring innovative technologies, every session is designed to spark new ideas and elevate our collective practice. Whether you are a seasoned clinician or a young professional beginning your journey, MASM 2026 offers opportunities to learn, connect, and grow.

This meeting also marks our MASM Biennial General Meeting, an important moment for us to reflect, renew, and reimagine the future of our Association. I strongly encourage all eligible members to actively participate. Your voice, your ideas, and your leadership are essential as MASM continues to strengthen its role as the leading authority for sports and exercise medicine in Malaysia.

I would like to extend my heartfelt appreciation to the Organising Committee and Scientific Committee for their tireless work in shaping an exciting and forward-looking programme. My gratitude also goes to our esteemed local and international speakers for sharing their expertise and elevating the scientific quality of our conference. And a special word of thanks to Sunway Medical Centre for hosting us and for their continuous support toward advancing sports and exercise health services in Malaysia.

To all delegates, thank you for being part of MASM 2026 and for your unwavering commitment to our field. I hope this conference will inspire you, challenge you, and ignite new collaborations that will drive us toward a stronger, healthier, and more innovative future.

Let us embrace precision. Let us push boundaries. And let us continue shaping the future of sports and exercise medicine together.
