Dato’ Dr Saunthari Somasundaram: I’m deeply honored to be elected as the next President-Elect of the NCD Alliance

Dato’ Dr Saunthari Somasundaram, President of National Cancer Society Malaysia, shared a post by National Cancer Society Malaysia on LinkedIn, adding:

“I’m deeply honored and humbled to be elected as the next President-Elect of the NCD Alliance. This milestone is not just a personal achievement but a testament to the collective efforts of those committed to advancing health equity and addressing noncommunicable diseases around the world. I look forward to working alongside passionate advocates, partners, and communities to build on the incredible progress made.

Your encouragement means a great deal—thank you for celebrating this moment with me.”

Quoting National Cancer Society Malaysia‘s post:

“We are proud to share that our President, Dato’ Dr Saunthari Somasundaram, has been appointed as the President-Elect of the NCD Alliance (2025–2027)!

This global recognition is a testament to her unwavering dedication to advancing healthcare, not just in Malaysia but across the world. The NCD Alliance is a leading global network driving action on non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as cancer, diabetes, heart disease, and chronic respiratory diseases. As NCDs continue to rise in Malaysia, this appointment marks a pivotal moment in strengthening our nation’s healthcare policies, prevention strategies, and access to treatment.

We congratulate Dato’ Dr Saunthari on this well-deserved honour and look forward to seeing her leadership shape a healthier, more equitable future for all.”
