PUTRAJAYA, April 24 (Bernama) -- Putrajaya Holdings Sdn. Bhd. (PjH) and Sunway Healthcare Holdings Sdn. Bhd. (SHH) have officially inked a Heads of Agreement (HOA) to jointly develop an integrated private medical centre in Precinct 7, Putrajaya, marking a major step forward in PjH as master-developer of Putrajaya, to develop Putrajaya as a world class city with the provision of quality and state-of-the-art healthcare services, enhancing those that are provided by the well-known Putrajaya Hospital and Institut Kanser Negara (IKN).

After months of engagement and careful planning, Precinct 7 has been identified as the ideal site, given its strategic location and accessibility, with proximity to the Putrajaya Sentral, and key health institutions like the Putrajaya Hospital, Institut Kanser Negara and Akademi Perubatan Malaysia.

A Shared Vision for Health and Well-Being

With this collaboration, PjH and SHH are setting their sights on more than just a hospital - we aim to build a modern and high quality, integrated healthcare ecosystem.  The first component – the proposed medical centre is expected to house a tertiary hospital with over 300 beds, offering advanced medical services and specialist care, including a burns unit, that cater not only to Putrajaya residents but also to the wider Southern Klang Valley region as well as international patients.  “PjH as the master developer provides a lifestyle oasis with our state-of-the-art infrastructure, numerous facilities, and lush and abundant open areas.  The creation of a healthcare ecosystem is just another step to create a more holistic quality of life, everything you need right here in Putrajaya,” said Dato’ Ir. Ts. Izwan Hasli Mohd Ibrahim, Chief Executive Officer, Putrajaya Holdings.  “This marks a catalytic milestone in Putrajaya’s growth journey, and we are excited to collaborate with a trusted partner like Sunway Healthcare to bring this shared vision to life,” he added.

Anchoring a New Urban Health District

Strategically located next to the soon-to-be-launched Destina Putrajaya - PjH’s latest commercial development slated to open in November 2025 - the proposed medical centre will benefit from seamless connectivity across Putrajaya and modern public transport links.

Destina Putrajaya, Putrajaya’s latest transportation-oriented development is designed to seamlessly integrate residential, commercial and lifestyle components with direct access to public transportation, promoting connectivity, sustainability and urban convenience.

“We are excited to partner PjH to build a medical centre in our nation’s administrative capital, enabling the Putrajaya community and beyond to access comprehensive and quality private healthcare. We are honoured that PjH has placed their trust in us and our years of experience in developing integrated healthcare facilities and networks from the ground up, including an internationally recognised flagship Sunway Medical Centre ranked as the top Malaysian hospital according to Newsweek’s World’s Best Hospitals 2025 rankings. We will strive to provide excellent facilities and compassionate, patient-centred medical care,” said Dato’ Lau Beng Long, President of Sunway Healthcare Group.
    
By bringing together PjH’s experience in urban development and SHH’s proven expertise in healthcare services, the collaboration is poised to elevate Putrajaya’s position as a centre for quality medical services. It marks a significant step in expanding access to specialised care and enhancing the overall healthcare landscape in the nation’s administrative capital.
