The Malaysian Ministry of Health aims to implement a comprehensive lung health approach in 902 clinics nationwide by the end of 2026. This initiative, part of the Healthy Lungs 2025-2030 program, focuses on health promotion, screening, smoking cessation, and referral pathways. The goal is to address the significant burden of respiratory diseases like asthma and COPD, affecting a substantial portion of the population. The ministry is also expanding the use of AI for early detection, including the Lung Shield IHH-KKM-PDRM program targeting frontline police officers. A national lung health registry, NALURY, has been established for monitoring and evaluation.
