The Malaysian Thoracic Society (MTS) will host the 30th Congress of the APSR at the Setia SPICE Convention Centre, Penang, Malaysia, on 19-22 November 2026 in Penang.
The flag of Penang consists of three vertical bands and an areca-nut palm on a grassy mount in the centre. The blue denotes the sea that surrounds Penang Island, white represents peace and yellow for the prosperity of the state.
The areca-nut palm, known as pokok pinang in Malay, symbolises the tree from which Penang got its name.
Further details about the congress will be announced here when confirmed.
