Dear all esteemed guests, colleagues, and friends,

It is with great pleasure and honour that I welcome you to the Malaysian Congress of Geriatric Medicine (MCGM) 2025, themed "Integrating Care for Ageing Populations: Connecting the Dots". As the organising chair, I am delighted to invite you to join us for this landmark event, which will take place from  7 - 9 August 2025, at the Courtyard by Marriott, Melaka, Malaysia.

​

Melaka, a city rich in history and culture, is the perfect setting for our conference. Known for its vibrant blend of Baba Nyonya and Portuguese heritage, Melaka offers a unique backdrop that combines tradition and modernity. Strategically located with numerous tourist attractions nearby, it promises not only an enriching professional experience but also a memorable cultural journey. Our venue, the Courtyard by Marriott, is a new, clean, and spacious facility centrally located in the heart of the city, providing the ideal environment for learning and collaboration.

​

The MCGM 2025 is set to be an exceptional gathering, uniting experts, practitioners, and enthusiasts in geriatric medicine from around the world. Through the theme "Integrating Care for Ageing Populations: Connecting the Dots", we seek to bridge the gaps in the care of older adults, connect various healthcare professionals, including doctors and allied health practitioners, and cultivate valuable collaborations that will significantly contribute to the well-being of our older population.

​

We have meticulously crafted an all-encompassing programme that includes keynote addresses from esteemed speakers, insightful panel discussions, dynamic breakout sessions, and invaluable networking opportunities. This congress will not only broaden your knowledge of the latest updates on geriatric medicine, but will also provide a platform for sharing both common and uncommon health concerns related to aging, while exploring different innovative approaches to date.

​

In addition to the academic programme, we encourage you to participate in our various competitions, including abstract submissions for oral and poster presentations, as well as photo contests. We would also like to invite you to explore the historical and cultural landmarks of Melaka through an organised tour, making your experience even more mesmerising.
