ALOR SETAR: The Kedah government is open to any private entities, from within or outside the country, who are interested in opening a private hospital in Langkawi, said state Housing, Local Government and Health Committee chairman Major (Rtd) Mansor Zakaria.

He said this in response to a suggestion from Amar Pared Mahamud (PN-Kuah), during the State Legislative Assembly sitting on Tuesday (March 5), for the state government to invest through its subsidiaries, or attract foreign investors to set up an international standard specialist hospital in Langkawi, to allow foreign tourists get the best healthcare on the tourist island.
