PP Health Malaysia (PPHM), a leading evidence‑based health news media and publisher, today announced a strategic partnership with Newswav, one of Malaysia’s largest trilingual news and content aggregators. The collaboration will syndicate PP Health Malaysia’s vetted health journalism across Newswav’s website and mobile apps, dramatically increasing the reach of trusted and reliable health news and information to Malaysian readers.
A partnership built on trust and scientific rigour
Founded in 2020 during the Covid‑19 pandemic, PP Health Malaysia has grown into a respected source of public health news and explainers, guided and contributed by PPHM’s medical advisory members panel of clinicians, specialists and researchers. PPHM’s content follows a proprietary 10POINTS editorial system and undergoes rigorous expert and scientific review that mimics peer review of scientific journal to ensure clinical accuracy, clear disclosure of limitations and high standards of scientific integrity.
Newswav’s extensive distribution, combined with PPHM’s proven editorial processes, forms a natural partnership aimed at delivering reliable, timely and locally relevant health information to a broader Malaysian audience.
Greater access to evidence‑based health content
Under the agreement, PPHM’s articles — including breaking health news, mental health guidance, nutrition and lifestyle features, health technology coverage, policy analysis and others — will be syndicated on Newswav’s platform and mobile apps. Newswav currently has 3.6 million mobile app installations and serves some 12 million article page views per month; through this partnership PPHM content will reach far more readers across Malaysia’s multilingual and multicultural communities.
Janice Chin, CEO of Newswav, said the partnership advances both organisations’ commitment to trustworthy health coverage: “Health information directly impacts how Malaysians make decisions for themselves and their families, so it’s crucial that what people read is trusted, accurate, and practical. Through this partnership with PP Health Malaysia (PPHM), Newswav can offer readers more credible, locally relevant wellness content, making reliable health guidance easier to access in one place.”
She also added: “In today’s digital space, misinformation can spread fast, especially on health topics, so evidence‑based publishing matters more than ever. By collaborating with PP Health Malaysia, Newswav strengthens the quality of health content on the platform and helps readers feel more confident that the information they see is responsible and grounded in credible sources. This collaboration reflects Newswav’s commitment to elevating content quality and ensuring readers have access to accurate, credible information – particularly in areas that affect daily life, like health and wellness.”
Tony Y., editor‑in‑Chief of PP Health Malaysia, said: “This partnership with Newswav strengthens our mission to be a trusted source of health news for Malaysians. By combining Newswav’s scale with PPHM’s highly rigorous 10POINTS editorial review system and expert oversight, we can deliver reliable, evidence‑based guidance where people expect to find credible health information and news.”
He added: “We aim to set new standards of health journalism in Malaysia — reporting that is based on reliable sources, clinically and scientifically accurate, transparent about limitations, and practical for everyday decision making. We intend to make cutting-edge health insights accessible to Malaysian. Syndication on Newswav helps us bring those best practices that the media is currently lacking to a far wider audience.”
And: “Trusted, reliable health information saves lives and builds healthier communities. This collaboration expands access to vetted health contents — from mental health tips and nutrition advice to latest health technology and breakthrough — and reinforces why readers can depend on PPHM as one of the best and trusted sources of health news and journalism in Malaysia.”
This strategic partnership reflects both organisations’ shared commitment to improving public health literacy. PP Health Malaysia and Newswav will also explore future joint initiatives to boost public engagement on pressing health topics.
