Todd Harper, CEO at Cancer Council Victoria, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“This week, I enjoyed catching up with Dato’ Dr Saunthari Somasundaram, CEO of the National Cancer Society Malaysia and President-Elect of the Non-Communicable Disease NCD Alliance.
Our conversation centred on equity, a principle that resonates across all NCDs, including cancer.
Saunthari also joined the lung cancer session at this week’s World Cancer Leaders Summit, where she highlighted the global challenge of lung health and the diverse approaches countries take to address the issue.
With lung cancer screening introduced in Australia earlier this year, we discussed Malaysia’s progress with lung cancer aspirations through research, funding, and strong government commitment.
It’s inspiring to see leaders like Saunthari driving progress and collaboration to bridge divides and improve outcomes worldwide.”
