WELLNESS and healthcare master township developer KL Wellness City (KLWC) has launched Kongsi Cahaya in conjunction with the 2026 Chinese New Year (CNY) celebrations.
The launch marked a vibrant start to the Year of the Horse and reinforces the developer’s commitment to building Malaysia’s future-ready healthcare ecosystem.
The event was officiated by Tourism Malaysia director-general Mohd Amirul Rizal Abdul Rahim, representing Tourism, Arts and Culture Minister Datuk Seri Tiong King Sing, alongside KLWC managing director Datuk Dr Colin Lee. It brought together community partners and special guests from local welfare homes as part of the brand’s ongoing social responsibility efforts.
The festivities began with a warm welcome by Lee, who remarked: “The theme Kongsi Cahaya reflects our core mission to be a beacon of health and hope.
“As we enter the Year of the Horse, we are not just celebrating a festival but also the spirit of community. By supporting local artists and the less fortunate, we hope to share the light of prosperity with everyone in this township.”
Building a healthcare ecosystem
Beyond the festive celebrations, KLWC shared key updates on the progress of its healthcare developments, underscoring steady momentum towards operational readiness.
“Construction of our rooftop helipad is underway to support critical patient transfers in the future, while The Nobel Healthcare Park remains on track to achieve vacant possession by mid-2026. At the same time, the KL International Hospital is progressing as planned, with completion targeted for the fourth quarter of 2026.
“These milestones reflect our commitment to building a comprehensive, future-ready healthcare ecosystem that serves local communities and the wider region,” shared Lee, adding that the progress reflects KLWC’s long-term vision of integrating healthcare, wellness and medical tourism within a single ecosystem.
CNY songs with local groups
A standout highlight of the event was the showcase of five original CNY songs, a first for a Malaysian healthcare developer.
The audience was treated to vibrant live performances by five local groups, including 1119 Entertainment, Mari Home Group of Artists, Jubilee World Pageants, Goddess of Nature Malaysia and Top Scholar Education Group. They captivated the crowd with songs such as Blessings Are Coming, Mari Home and A Year to Shine, reinforcing KLWC’s commitment to supporting local creative talent.
KLWC also extended its support to local orphanages, sharing the season’s prosperity with Lighthouse Children Welfare Home Association (Kuala Lumpur & Selangor), Persatuan Kebajikan Rumah Victory Malaysia in Puchong and Yayasan Sunbeams Home in Cheras.
Innovation integrated with culture
“KL Wellness City exemplifies how innovation and culture can go hand in hand.
“By celebrating the richness of our heritage while advancing world-class healthcare infrastructure, this project not only enhances Malaysia’s position as a leading medical and wellness tourism destination but also inspires communities to embrace wellness and prosperity together,” said Tiong, highlighting the significance of the developer’s initiatives.
Adding to the celebrations, KLWC sponsored a special lucky draw for guests. Ten winners were selected during the event, with each receiving a health screening voucher worth RM1,000.
The vouchers are redeemable at KL International Hospital upon its opening, reflecting the developer’s ongoing commitment to promoting preventive healthcare and community wellbeing.
