Message from the Organising Chairman In November 2010, the Malaysian Association for Thoracic & Cardiovascular Surgery will convene its 13 th Annual Scientific Meeting in Melaka. I would like to thank the Association for giving me the opportunity to organise this year s meeting along with my colleagues in Melaka. On behalf of the Association as well as Dr Leong Kin Seng from the local Organising Committee, it is a privilege and great pleasure to cordially invite you to attend this meeting. The Historical City of Melaka has recently been listed as a UNESCO World heritage site. The scientific programme will include plenary lectures and symposia to cover various updates, recent topics and issues in Cardiothoracic Surgery presented by both the local and invited overseas faculty. It has always been the desire of the Association to conduct a post-graduate programme to benefit the Cardiothoracic Trainees. We will include a pre-congress workshop in the form of a post-graduate review course for the trainees. The meeting will also highlight topics which will benefit other members of the fraternity such as anaesthetists, nurses, perfusionists and other allied health personnel. The meeting will be held at the Holiday Inn Melaka which is situated in close proximity to the various historical sites of Melaka. Once again, along with my co-chairman Dr Leong Kin Seng, I would like to invite you all to attend the 13 th MATCVS Annual Scientific Meeting. Selamat D atang ke M elaka dan Salam Satu M alaysia. Thank you. Dr Sivakumar Sivalingam Organising Chairman 13 th MATCVS Annual Scientific Meeting 2010 1
