The MESTI Pavilions highlight MATTA’s commitment through RHB’s Ocean Harmonic Initiative to emphasise the importance of protecting our oceans while promoting sustainable tourism practices. In addition, the MATTA Fair September 2025 will also highlight efforts to preserve Malaysia’s rich culture and history.
“Through MESTI, we learn the tales that make Malaysia Truly Asia, through time-honoured traditions, and the green and blue landscapes that define our nation. MESTI makes way in preserving these treasures, inspiring sustainable practices for generations to come. We look forward to working closely with our partners as we continue to move towards a better future,” said MATTA President Nigel Wong.

BANGKOK, 5 September 2025: Bangkok will host the We Are The World Biotech – AI Innovative & Integrated East-West Medicine Global Summit from 9 to 11 November at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Centre (QSNCC) meeting room 101-120, Level 1.
‘We are the World’ is a nonprofit movement and organiser of the Bangkok summit* that promises to reframe how we think about wellness, treatment, and longevity in the twenty-first century.
Traditional Chinese Medicine
For too long, patients and families facing chronic conditions such as Cancer, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, diabetes, and Autism have been told that Western medicine offers only limited options. While modern pharmaceuticals and hospital systems are invaluable, they often focus on managing symptoms rather than addressing root causes. Eastern traditions, particularly Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), have for centuries pursued balance and prevention. Now, with the help of artificial intelligence and biotechnology, the two worlds are set to converge in Bangkok.
The summit will bring together global experts in bioscience, TCM, Western medicine, and AI innovation. Their mission is to share reliable medical information, promote transparency, and highlight therapies that combine the best of Eastern and Western approaches. The ambition is nothing less than to create a new healthcare paradigm for Asia that also has a global impact.
Cutting through the noise
One of the most significant challenges today is separating genuine treatment from marketing hype. Patients are often left confused by conflicting advice and misleading claims. The organisers of We Are The World pledge to provide a professional platform where knowledge is accurate, evidence-based, and accessible. This is not about miracle cures, but about building trust and demonstrating how integrative medicine can offer genuine hope.
Why Bangkok
Bangkok is a fitting host for this ground-breaking event. Thailand has long been a leader in wellness tourism and medical travel, boasting a combination of advanced hospitals, respected traditional therapies, and affordability that rivals Western markets. The summit will showcase how Asia can leverage cost efficiency, centuries of TCM wisdom, and cutting–edge AI to deliver innovative healthcare solutions.
Over three days, delegates will explore case studies and breakthroughs across conditions that stretch the limits of conventional medicine. Topics include autism, Alzheimer’s, cancer, lupus, diabetes, kidney disease, AIDS, stroke, and hypertension. Participants will hear from professors, doctors, and researchers who are at the frontier of integrating East–West treatments.
A summit with direct Impact
Combining the wisdom of East and West
The event is not only about dialogue. Delegates will have access to second medical opinions from leading doctors, and 1% of patients will receive free cutting–edge treatments, including longevity consultations. This unique initiative extends hope to those who might otherwise feel left behind.
Dr Michael Yao, PhD, a biopharmaceutical policy leader and recipient of a Lifetime Achievement Award from the FDA, summarises the vision: “No illness should deprive anyone of their right to hope and comprehensive care. By combining the wisdom of East and West with today’s most advanced technologies, we can open new possibilities for patients everywhere.”
Whether you are a medical professional, a wellness traveller, or someone personally touched by illness, We Are The World in Bangkok is an opportunity to connect with the brightest minds and most compassionate healers. In a city known for its hospitality, the world will gather to explore the future of health.
* “We Are The World Biotech – AI Innovative & Integrated East-West Medicine Global Summit” does not appear to have a permanent, single headquarters. An internet search suggests it is a “nonprofit movement and summit,” a collaborative event rather than a project of a single company. Editor’s note.)
SINGAPORE, 5 September 2025: Digital travel platform Agoda invites travel enthusiasts and nature lovers to explore some of Asia’s most incredible caves.
As the trend for immersive travel experiences grows, cave exploration promises unforgettable adventures with truly breathtaking views.
Photo credit: Vietnam Airlines. Son Doong Cave, located in Phong Nha – Ke Bang National Park, Vietnam, is the largest cave in the world and a global icon of adventure tourism.
Cave exploration offers a chance to witness the artistry of nature, sculpted over millions of years. From intricate stalactites and stalagmites to serene underground lakes, these caves offer a glimpse into a world rarely seen.
But before you decide to embark on caving as a leisure pursuit, there are essential safety instructions when caving for the first time.
Caving can be an incredible and rewarding experience, but it’s essential to prioritise safety, especially for your first trip. The best way to learn is by going with an experienced caver or a local caving club (known as a “grotto”).
Here are some key safety instructions to follow, along with the support that cave tour specialists should provide.
Before you go
Never cave alone. The minimum recommended group size is four people. This ensures that if one person is injured, one can stay with them while the other two go for help.
Find an experienced leader. Go with someone who knows the cave and can guide you through the hazards and challenges.
Tell someone where you’re going. Establish a “surface watch” with a reliable person who is not on the trip. Give them your caving plan, including the cave location, the names of everyone in your group, your vehicle information, and your estimated time of return. Have a plan for what they should do if you don’t check in by a specific time.
Check the weather. Be aware of the forecast, especially for rain, as caves can flood quickly and without warning.
Know your limits. Caving is physically demanding. Be honest about your fitness level and don’t push yourself beyond your limits.
Essential gear and clothing
Three sources of light. This is the most crucial rule of caving. Your primary light should be a helmet-mounted headlamp to keep your hands free. You should also carry two reliable backup lights, such as waterproof flashlights, along with extra batteries for all of them.
A sturdy helmet with a chin strap. This is non-negotiable. You will hit your head, and a helmet will protect you from falling rocks and low ceilings.
Proper clothing. Dress in layers and avoid cotton, as it absorbs water and can cause you to feel cold. Synthetic materials are a better choice. Wear long pants and a long-sleeved shirt to protect your skin from scrapes and dirt.
Sturdy footwear. Wear boots with good ankle support and traction to prevent falls on wet and slippery surfaces.
Knee and elbow pads. These will be a lifesaver when crawling through tight spaces.
Gloves. They will protect your hands from scrapes and the cold.
A small backpack. Pack a first-aid kit, a small amount of food, and plenty of water.
While caving
Move slowly and carefully. Falls are the most common cause of caving accidents. Always be deliberate with your movements.
Maintain “three points of contact.” When moving over uneven or slippery ground, always have three points of your body (e.g., two feet and one hand) in contact with a stable surface.
Stay with your group. Do not wander off on your own. Maintain communication and make sure everyone is within earshot.
Don’t run or jump. The ground is uneven, slippery, and full of unseen hazards.
Be a good steward of the cave. Remember the caver’s motto: “Take nothing but pictures, leave nothing but footprints, kill nothing but time.” Do not touch or damage cave formations (stalactites, stalagmites, etc.), as the oils from your skin can prevent them from growing. Pack out all your trash, including food scraps.
For travellers eager to take in these underground wonders, Agoda presents a guide to cave destinations that will deliver lasting memories. Ensure the tour guide company you use prioritises safety and provides the necessary support gear for participants.
Seven must-visit caves in Asia
