Speech from Ven Jit Heng
A few months ago, KLSCH just celebrated its first anniversary. At the same time, the Hospital also embarked on working very closely with National Cancer Society Malaysia (NCSM) in the areas of public education and awareness, screening and diagnosis of cancer among the public.
Many people always think that cancer is an incurable disease. Actually, this is not absolutely true.
Many a time, whenever a person presented with the symptoms that are suggestive of underlying cancer, and is unfortunately confirmed as cancer after undergoing immediate screening and diagnostic tests, the disease is curable if treatment is initiated at the very early stage.
However, most people often have to fight with phobia and denial of the possibility of having cancer, aggravated by the fact of financial constraints, they may delay the screening procedures and tests. Hence, they miss the opportunity of treating the disease at an early stage.
The vision of KLSCH is to provide quality and yet affordable tertiary medical care to the public especially those who are from the middle and lower income groups. Under the spirit of compassion, we are working diligently to bring hope and care to our patients and their family members.
We are working hard by leveraging the resources, professional knowledge and services as well as experience to materialise the formation of this cancer screening fund.
We are blessed to have the support from Tan Sri Dato’ Seri Lim Gait Tong who has pledged to donate RM100,000.00 to this Fund. I am sure that the good deed from Tan Sri Lim will benefit the public who are financially challenged and at the same time facing the possibility of suffering from cancer.
The CEO of KLSCH Dr. Thor reported that various departments in KLSCH is now ready to handle the application from public for this Fund from today onwards.
Meanwhile, KLSCH is planning for its expansion project. This is to inform you that oncology related treatment will be an area and discipline that we will pursue further.
I would like to thank the members of the press and media for coming to our hospital and events very often of late to cover the programmes and activities in the interest of the public.
We will continue to serve the public by embracing the core values of compassionate, committed and caring.

几个月前，刚渡过营运一周年的极乐寺慈善医院，早在几个月前，便积极的和马来西亚癌症协会携手合作，在癌症的教育与醒觉，还有检验和诊断的这几个重要的环节给予病人专业的服务和投入。
或许，很多人都认为癌症是不治之症，其实，这不尽然。
很多时候，如果如果病人一有疑似癌症的症状时，若能即刻就医，在最短的时间里完成检验和作出诊断，然后进行适当的医疗，痊愈的可能性是蛮大的。
然而，在面对患上癌症的阴影和恐惧的人们，除了会讳疾忌医，也会因为自身的财务状况的拮据，而造成延迟检验和诊断，错失了病从浅中医的黄金时段。
极乐寺慈善医院的建立，就是秉着为贫苦和不幸的民众，提供优质又负担得起的专科医疗的服务。我们以佛教慈悲为怀的精神和指导思想，尽我们所能，给病人以及病人的家属，带来多一份的希望，关怀和祝福。
我们努力的结合各方的资源，专业知识和经验，因缘具足下，成就了今天的这个癌症检验慈善基金的推展了。
今天，最为难得的是，我们得到了发林集团董事主席兼总裁丹斯里林玉唐先生的慷慨解囊，乐捐马币十万令吉，成立这项癌症检验慈善基金。丹斯里林玉唐先生的善举，令人赞叹。我可以肯定，这项基金将会给面对经济困难的民众，莫大的帮助。
我们的慈善医院的首席执行员涂仲仪医生向我汇报，医院里的相关部门已经做好了准备，如何有效的把这基金的效益，就从今天开始，惠及需要的民众。
此刻，我们极乐寺基金会正积极的筹办我们的医院扩建计划。癌症医疗这一专科，将是我们的慈善医院承诺要重点发展和开拓的部门和科系。
今天的一小步，是极乐寺慈善医院具有历史性的一刻。
感恩媒体朋友，这几个月一直往我们的医院跑，采访我们医院的慈善，医疗和医疗教育相关的活动和项目，幸苦大家了。
我们慈善医院将秉着“以慈为先，无慈不走”的信念，抱着“慈爱，承诺和关怀“的核心价值，服务社区和民众。
在过去的一年里，医院的全体医护人员，除了积极的执行我们的慈善医疗职务，也开始接触相关可合作的单位和机构，群策群力，尽量结合一切的资源和人力，旨在把慈善医疗做得更深，更广和更有效率。
