Welcome Message from the MSIC President

We are very pleased to invite you to the 2025 Annual Scientific Meeting on Intensive Care (ASMIC), a key highlight of our Malaysian Society of Intensive Care’s calendar.

ASMIC, now into the third decade since its inception, has long established itself as the leading platform in Malaysia for knowledge sharing and collaboration on the latest in intensive care medicine. We shall continue to keep this great momentum going in the 2025 edition through a great line up of local and international speakers, covering a broad range of topics that will be in tune with evolving challenges in intensive care medicine. There will be multiple scientific sessions on offer, from the pre-congress workshops down to the plenaries, symposia or meet the experts. All are designed to engage your inquisitive mind and get you to bring new knowledge and insights back to your workplace.

ASMIC is also a much-awaited time of the year to rekindle old friendships and foster new networking and collaborations. The familiar ambience of our regular venue, the Kuala Lumpur Shangri-La, will surely help add to the excitement of seeing and catching up with friends and colleagues.

So, let’s come and join us at ASMIC 2025!
