Malaysia Health Development Project Regional Laboratories

Kota Kinabalu, Kuching, Ipoh, Melaka    MALYSIA

The purpose of this research facility is to provide health, medical, forensic and environment testing facilities for the various Malaysia States and their capitals.  For efficiency, the regional Laboratories were similarly structured to the Central Laboratory in Kuala Lumpur, although their function differs somewhat.  All five buildings, plus the three additional projects by this firm are linked through the Asian ‘MultiMedia Super Corridor’ and housed at Multi-Media University, so that each building can easily communicate and share information and processes with any of their facilities throughout the country.
