Singapore based Precious Medical Centre inaugurating International Cancer Centre on 5 Dec 2025 in Johor Malaysia, adding one major player in SEZ healthcare arena

THE hospital is named after the late Tunku Abdul Jalil, the fourth child of His Majesty Sultan Ibrahim of Johor and Her Majesty Raja Zarith Sofiah, who passed away at the age of 25 after bravely battling liver cancer. The centre was conceived to fulfil his wish of alleviating the suffering of cancer patients.

“This hospital is a tribute to the memory of Tunku Abdul Jalil, whose courage, strength, and resilience in the face of adversity remain an inspiration to all,” said Dr William Chong, Founder and Managing Director of Precious Medical Group. “Tunku Jalil’s modest, kind, and compassionate nature embodies the philosophy of this hospital — the spirit of caring and sharing.”

With the upcoming RTS Link set to enhance cross-border mobility, the Tunku Laksamana Johor Cancer Centre and Hospital will strengthen Johor’s role as a gateway for advanced collaboration between Malaysia and Singapore. The project reflects the building of a seamless ecosystem for medical treatment, training, and innovation, serving patients across both nations and the wider region. It stands as a symbol of regional partnership, economic growth, and human progress, positioning Johor as a new focal point for high-value healthcare within ASEAN.
