Welcome Message PDS 2011

Dear colleagues and friends,

On behalf of the Organizing Committee, it is my pleasure to welcome all of you to the 2^nd Penang Dermatology Symposium, which is organized by the Department of Dermatology, Hospital Pulau Pinang.  The main objective of the symposium is to provide a continuous medical education program in the field of dermatology for all government doctors and private practitioners.

Our theme for this year is “Pediatric Dermatology”. This presents an opportunity to update and equip ourselves with the knowledge needed in facing the challenges of managing pediatric dermatology cases especially among the neonates or infants.   We are indeed privileged and honored to have all the four Pediatric Dermatologists in country to be here to share their experience and expertise.

I would like to express our gratitude to the Penang Hospital Director, all invited speakers, co-organizers, sponsors and all the staff of the Department of Dermatology for their support and anyone who in one way or the other has contributed in making this event possible

I wish everyone a fruitful and enjoyable time

Dr Chan Lee Chin
