Broad reforms, combined with nine priorities and initiatives will enable the development of advanced healthcare solutions, ensuring that the sector keeps pace with global technological advancements. The integration of advanced technology and the creation of comprehensive databases will further enhance the efficiency and accessibility of healthcare services, benefiting both providers and patients.  Effective collaboration between the government and the private sector will be essential to fully realize the potential of these initiatives.

The exemption of custom duties on three cancer medicines and reduction of duties on certain medical technologies such as x-ray tubes and flat panel detectors is a significant move to strengthen domestic capabilities in the healthcare sector.
