A mouth-watering scientific programme and the thoughts of mouth-watering Kelantanese dishes will surely bring you, together with many of your colleagues, to Kelantan to attend the tenth Annual Congress of the Perinatal Society of Malaysia.
Because it is the tenth congress we have decided to make it a very special one with the theme of the congress being perinatal infection. The topics will vary from the nosocomial infections in NICU to the role of infection in prematurity, to shining the torch on torches and we will finish the congress with a brilliant talk on perinatal HIV.
We will have also for the first time a grand panel discussion on ethical dilemmas in the perinatal period and the debate will be a hot one between two teams of 2 experts each in the field.
There are some great shopping bargains waiting for you at the pasar of Kota Bharu, at Pengkalan Kubur or Rantau Panjang, but the committee advises you to stay one day extra for this because Doctors and Nurses alike will find it extremely hard to decide on skipping even only one session of the programme.
I am sure you will not want to miss our beach games and BBQ at the night of the first congress day and also for the banquet you can expect some pleasant surprises.
Finally, a very warm welcome to Kelantan from the whole organising team.
Assoc Professor Dr. Hans Van Rostenberghe Chairman of the local organizing committee
